Hertz is a unit of measurement for what?

Bamburgh castle is in which English county?

Is Schrödinger's cat in the box dead or alive?

In which month is the northern hemisphere Autumn equinox?

Who directed North by Northwest starring Cary Grant?
1. Frequency. Sure

2. Northumberland. sure

3. It is neither dead nor alive. It is based on your perception. Or something like that, I forgot the rationale exactly as to why it is neither dead not alive.

4. August? Total guess

5. Hitchcock? I think but not sure

PS Good job Earnest. Enjoying this quiz.
Winner, all correct bar equinox - September.

Who was the Biblical prophet that was so incensed by youths making fun of his bald head that he called upon God to punish them? What was God's response?
Sound like NigglyB. Whatever happened to him anyway?

They were torn apart by wolves I think? But don't quote me on that, been a while (i.e never) since I read the bible.

Edit; looks like I'm too late and was wrong about the wolves.

Elisha. Two bears came out and ate the boys.
Thanks for clarifying that - my first thought was Yul Brynner. :oops:

Almost 100% correct. The bears came out of the woods and mauled the young lads. God is just. God is great.

The U.S. soldiers were called doughboys. The Bismarck, not the Bismark, did the sinking

Niggly is an excellent response. I believe he is running a new show now...Udon Talk??? The God of the New Testament is a bit of a sociopath (ask Aardvark what that means) and a full-blown psychopath.

Elisha. Two bears came out and ate the boys.
Adjunct: Did the bears eat them whole?

No, they spat those parts out.
