6 Feb, 2016: Day 53

Question 1:
In what European capital can you view the city's first nude statue by Sir Richard Westmacott erected in 1822? Answer: London.


Please see Day 28 for the explanation.

Question 2:
What sportscaster, known for his catch phrase, “Oh my!” joined CBS in 2000 as a play-by-play announcer for the NFL? Answer: Dick Enberg.


Use the quote along with other information from the question to come up with an answer. Type “Oh my!” sportscaster CBS and you easily find what you are looking for.

Question 3:
In a 2005 ceremony inducting Dan Marino to the Football Hall of Fame, who was the recipient of Dan's “one last pass” thrown from the podium? Answer: Mark Clayton.


It's not Dan Marino suggesting to Alex Baldwin about building a snack stadium, but it's pretty cool and recognizing a former teammate. Let's make this simple. Place in the search field Dan Marino last pass 2005 and within the search results you will find event details of Dan Marino's induction in the Hall of Fame, throw to the ex-Fins wide receiver.

07 Jan, 2016: Day 28

Question 1:
In what European capital can you view the city's first nude statue by Sir Richard Westmacott erected in 1822? Answer: London.


I'm not up on British Neoclassic sculptor, so no further comments. Plug into the search field sir richard westmacott statue 1822 for the answer, which contains images of his greater than life sized bronze "Achilles", in dedication to Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington.

Question 2:
The Curatorial Director of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Museum authored a book describing 50 years of what rock band? Answer: The Rolling Stones.


Well, if it was neither The Rolling Stones or The Beatles this might have made for an interesting search. But I guessed The Rolling Stones, so there you go. Finding the answer without guessing: curator Rock and Roll Hall of Fame book will give results on Howard Kramer's passion, Rolling Stones : 50 years of rock.

Question 3:
In a famous King Crimson debut album cover, the character's terrified eyes are looking down towards what side of his body? Answer: Right.


Please see Day 3 for the explanation.
