I'm gonna start something see if you guys like it. I'll ask a random trivia question every day (unless im gone) and I'll keep track of who gets the most right. If this becomes something people like, I'll try and keep it going past the summer.

We'll have to work on the honor system here, since the internet has just about every answer out there. If you don't know it, please don't look it up and then post the answer.

I'm going to post these at random times too, otherwise some people might not ever get a chance to answer a question if they are busy same time every day.

I'll keep a running tab of points here. First person to get it right wins the point for the day. Only one guess per person per day.

MacDaddyOJack: 6
Roadkill: 1
49ergirl: 3

I'd say Black bear if I were to guess cause I'm too lazy to look it up. Deer and Moose I imagine kill a ton in car accidents. Not a lot of black bear deaths.
