I always get confused with the Senate, House of Representative and Congress 2. what are the popular names for popes? Hugh? Don't understand the question 3. When did the Brooklyn Dodgers move to Los Angeles? Didn't know they had 4. Who invented Pac-man? 'Pac-Man was inspired by a pizza with a slice missing. Namco designer Tohru Iwatani went out for the evening with some friends and then dove for dinner. The rest is history.' - OK I looked that up 5. Why is the famous clock called Big Ben? Sir Benjamin Hall - he had something to do with commisioning it (knew that one )[This message has been edited by adam warlock (edited 06-20-2001 [This message has been edited by Staralfur (edited 06-20-2001).] |

I count 51 OK, Washington DC isn't officially a state, but it has it's own flag, and some of it's own laws.... I get confused sometimes, I'm not really ignorant; 1 head, 2 arms, 10 fingers, 3 ears...see. Having said that I live in the UK and I couldn't be sure how many counties there are.

It is still 50 States still, Washington DC and some of the territories are in the house of represenatives, but they are not voting members nor are the ones who attend the senate.
There is a 101st member I think that's maybe what is the trick question. If there is a tie, the vice president votes to break it. The Vice President is the President of the Senate too.2. No idea but Papaul comes to mind, or head of church on earth..or if you meant the actual name, were up to alot of John's 3. 1958 4. No idea but those guys sucked alot of quaters out of me and my friends... I do rember that the machines were by Bailey Entertainment and Midway. 5. No idea.

5/. It isn't. It is the clock tower that is called Big Ben - not the clock
