Hiya Gang!! Looks like we had a pretty good Hump Day turnout... let's see who did what...

The Nearly Impossible Question for Wednesday, March 30, 2011 was: According to a new study by The H Lee Moffitt Cancer Center and Research Institute, half of all men in the general population have this. What do they have?

The correct answer to Wednesday's NIQ is: HPV. HPV infection is best known as the primary cause of cervical cancer, the second most common cancer in women worldwide. But various strains of HPV also cause penile, head and neck cancers.

Vaccinating men and boys as well as girls would prevent some of these cancers.

There are more than 130 different strains of HPV and more than a third of women are infected with at least one strain of HPV.

So if you’re getting busy without using some protection you may as well make an appointment with your doctor the next day!

I don't see any winners for Wednesday... I better send out a soft ball question for tomorrows NIQ!!!!!

Tyvin, Kobber, I totally missed your answers last night!!! MY APOLOGIES!!!! I'd been out with a friend having VERY dry martini's, dirty, with extra olives, and half price tapas!!! I was toasted!!! Congratulations to both of you as well!!!! Good playing!!!!!

Okay... moving on to the next NIQ...

The Nearly Impossible Question for Thursday, March 30, 2011 is: A new study says that people with this extra-curricular activity outlive people that don’t do it at all. Interesting because we’re often told that this can kill you!

Put your thinkin' caps on and remember, no cheatin!!!

Can you say hick up

When ever an ancient person is interviewed and the inevitable question of what did you do to live so long comes up the answer is always alcohol. So that's my answer; drinking booze.
