davidcalgary29 Posted April 15, 2004 Share Posted April 15, 2004 The first person to answer the following politically-themed questions in this thread will win two mystery carts (a mystery to you, not to me) for an Atari system. 1. I was the first Canadian Prime Minister to die in a bathtub. Who am I? 2. I was also a Canadian Prime Minister; I was literally boiled alive in a bathtub after one of my attendants forgot to turn down the heat. I did not die while I was PM; I was defeated after one term in office. Who am I? 3. I had a special bathtub installed in the White House that could hold four men! Who am I? 4. I never married, but lived with my long-time companion, a Senator, who was known to various members of the press (and Congress) as "Aunt Nancy" or "Miss Fancy". I've been the only Bachelor President to date. Who am I? Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/48255-wednesday-quick-quiz-who-am-i/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mad Scientist Posted April 16, 2004 Share Posted April 16, 2004 I'll give it a shot: 1-John Thompson 2- RB Bennett (I saw a reference to him actually dying in a tub in England, but I'll try it anyway, as it was the only non-Thompson tub reference that I could find. FWIW, I have five other "one-termers" to try, if this one is wrong.) 3- Taft 4- Buchanan -MS Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/48255-wednesday-quick-quiz-who-am-i/#findComment-585469 Share on other sites More sharing options...
davidcalgary29 Posted April 18, 2004 Author Share Posted April 18, 2004 And I was half-joking with that contest; bathtubs are on my mind right now, as I'm remodelling. PM me your address, and those carts will be on the way!

Mad Scientist Posted May 18, 2004 Share Posted May 18, 2004 The mystery carts remain a mystery. :wink: Did you happen to bury them under your new tub? P.M. sent about a month ago; let me know if you need the info again or if you were fully kidding (I enjoyed looking up the answers, so it's not a big loss). -MS Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/48255-wednesday-quick-quiz-who-am-i/#findComment-612691 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll get off my butt this afternoon and mail them to you.

Mad Scientist Posted June 9, 2004 Share Posted June 9, 2004 The goodies arrived yesterday: BASIC, Qix, and River Raid, all for the Atari 800 line! I've not yet found an 800 in the wild (only a recent 400, which I passed up), but this gives me more incentive to keep looking. In the meantime, they can keep my copy of Astro Grover company. Thanks for the contest! -MS Quote Link to comment https://forums.atariage.com/topic/48255-wednesday-quick-quiz-who-am-i/#findComment-630553 Share on other sites More sharing options...
