Alan Rock's Trivia

Q: What territory became the 45th U.S. state on January 4, 1896?
A: Utah. The Great Salt Lake is a great place to fish because the fish suffer from hardening of the arteries and get really senile. They'll bite at anything that looks easy to chew. Their favorite bait is worms marinated in Geritol.

Q: Who is Thomas Stevens, and why should we know his name?
A; He was the first U.S. bicyclist to circle the globe -- completed on January 4, 1887. He was smarter than other cyclists who tried. Whenever Stevens came to an ocean, he took a boat.
