Did you find this especially interesting or something?
Or is this homework, you really *don't* have the answers, and are lazy enough to have us do the work for you?

If that's the case, then here are the answers:

1. Ford
2. New Jersey
3. 34th
4. Maryland
5. John Polk

1. Ford
2. Nebraska
3. 37th
4. Kentucky (this is assuming that you mean total area. New York is 27th by Total area, and 30th by land area) see here.
5. Lincoln

I am so smart (I swear that I've never heard of google).

No way! It was New Jersey! 😉

edit: Trust me, Big Jimbo, since you're not going to google the answers yourself, put down NJ on the homework. 😀

I like your sadistic streak, DrPizza.

Never mind my first post, OP, DrPizza is correct.

There's also an interesting story that you can google about how NJ, one of the original 13 colonies became the 34th state. It wasn't until 1840 that the Trenton Indians signed the treaty, finally allowing NJ to become a state. Actually, though, President Andrew Jackson had them all shot and someone else signed it. That's how he earned his reputation of being anti-Indian.

it wasnt for homework. gesh you people need to get a grip. i had the answers before i posted it. I even PMed mongul the answers right after his post.


also this trivia was handed down to the dept from the Program manager for some tickets. But i submitted that reply at 8:17am.

I like random trivia, i thought i would pass it along. But no "this is homework"

Meh, I was close. I knew it was Ford, knew it was Nebraska, and thought it was 39th (what, I used to live in NE 🙂 ), but didn't know the last two at all.

 

[DrPizza]

🙂 My answer was in case it was homework. As trivia goes, it was kinda boring trivia. I rolled the dice, snake eyes, so I gave an incorrect response. But, just in case you googled the first part, I did answer Ford 🙂

Oddly, I didn't know it was Nebraska, but almost put Nebraska as the answer. Then I decided to use NJ instead so I could easily demonstrate that I wasn't retarded and the answer was intended to be wrong (especially with the Trenton Indians)
