Jesse day 9

3/6

1. What synovial joint, which contains over a dozen bursae, is the largest joint in the human body?

I was considering hip, but knee felt right. 

2. An Old Man, A Young Man and Life's Greatest Lesson is the subtitle of a 1997 memoir in which an author and sports columnist visits his old sociology professor. Per the title, when did these visits take place?
Correct Answer: TUESDAYS

Oh, right.

3. The sum of the interior angles of a triangle on a flat surface is 180°. What other polygon's interior angles total 540°?
Correct Answer: PENTAGON
Your Answer: Pentagon
Points Assigned: 1

I got a math question! I knew a square was 360, and that the angle for each point would increase for each extra point.  I knew a hexagon was not going to have 90 degree angles, as 90 times 6 is 540, so it had to pentagon.

Your Answer: Au Jus

I have been to the Mt of Olives.
