You can get these Questions & Answers at the Yahoo-groups' Messages Link.
=================
Do you like Opera: "... a dramatic work in one or more acts, set to music for singers and instrumentalists"?
Or how about the former TV "talkshow" hosts Oprah Winfrey or Jerry Springer?
Well, I hope so; because they are the topics of our Trivial questions tonight.
Accordingly, we offer for your approval, 3 questions about these three forms of "entertainment for the masses(?)" .
Please choose your answers from any of the 5 (reuseable) answers of "A", "B", "C", "D", or "E" (if applicable!) for each of the following question.
Good Luck and remember, YOU are always a WINNER with us, regardless of your actual answers!
Ok, here we go....

=================
++ QUOTE OF THE DAY ++ -- The New York Tribune in 1863 describing Offenbach's theater"in Paris:
"The Bouffes-Parisiens is so little as to be almost a joke. You laugh when you get inside it, at its tiny proportions ... There is, in fact, hardly room enough to swing a cat in. People do not, however, go to the Bouffes for the purpose of swinging cats. They go to listen to the brightest and newest music, to witness the best acting, of its order, that the French stage affords...."
