    About this ebook

    Think you know your trivia? Uncle John has a challenge for you!

    Test your smarts and then stump your friends with this collection of diabolical questions and answers that could only come from the trivia masters at the Bathroom Readers’ Institute. Sure, everyone knows the Pilgrims sailed to the New World on the Mayflower, but how many people know what that ship smelled like? And it’s a somewhat-known fact that Gene Roddenberry wrote lyrics to the Star Trek theme song, but few people know why he wrote them. Do you? You’ll learn the answer to both of these conundrums--and hundreds more--after you read Impossible Questions. So expand your knowledge a wide array of topics including science, history, politics, sports, entertainment, language, and more. The questions may seem impossible, but the answers are just a page away!
