Alan Rock's Trivia Questions

Q: On August 3, 1958 the first nuclear submarine passed under the North Pole. Do you remember the name of that sub?
A: The U.S.S. Nautilus. For a couple weeks afterward Rudolph had a green nose. Having a nuclear submarine capable of passing under the North Pole was important; if Santa Claus ever snapped, he could be contained.

Q: Actor Ramon Estevez was born August 3, 1946. We know him as?
A: Martin Sheen, since no one named Estevez could possibly make it in show business.

Q: The man who made Akron, Ohio, the rubber capital of the world died August 3, 1888. But B.F. Goodrich may be even more natable for another reason, he went into the rubber business because he couldn't make a living doing what?
A: As a surgeon. Those were the good old days when even doctors went broke.
