WHO AM I??? I am an artist. I was born in Pittsburgh in 1928. I survived being shot by the founder of SCUM. I died in 1987 after routine gallbladder surgery. My studio was known as The Factory. I made several 16mm underground films. I was into Coca-Cola and Campbell’s soup cans. I put Marilyn Monroe on silk screen.

Today's quiz:
I am in North America. Tourists flock to this area. This place never sleeps. New Year’s Eve is its busiest night. David Letterman works a few blocks away from here. Bright neon signs light the area. The NASDAQ sign is one. It is in midtown Manhattan.

Yep - - I am finding these quite easy, as well... I will hang in there with these, but if you want something more difficult, I have another source of questions...
Yesterday's answer was, in fact, Lance Armstrong.... I didn't know that he had been an Olympic cyclist, so I guess I learned something.....
Today's quiz.......
What am I???
I am a specific award. I was designed in 1928. I am much sought after. I weigh 8 1/2 pounds. I am 13 1/2 inches high. Several of me are given annually. I’m associated with a red-carpet event. I love movies.
For extra credit - - who named me???

The Oscar
I have no idea who named it. I think I'v heard but don't remember.
I didn't know about Lance being an Olympic cyclist either.
Don't get any harder ones.

Okay - - we will stick with this set of quizzes.... If anyone wants harder ones, I can start another thread.....
I try to answer the ones with a list of facts within the first two facts... These are kind of fun, and since it is an on-line calendar, I can't look ahead to see what is coming up......
