1)  In what city did the inventor of the cheeseburger reside?
2)  What is the longest continuous street in America?
3)  What city has the ( Read more... )

Get ready friends, it is Oscar season!  We’ve made it through the dumping grounds of October, and it is now time for the best of the year to surface in preparation for the Oscars.  Right now, the films the studios have been saving all year are riding a wave into theaters and include such anticipated films as The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, ( Read more... )
