1. In the early '80s, Tetchie Agbayani created a furor when she posed nude for Playboy. The layout was composed of photos of her on a beach accompanied by the usual hokey captions -- but these captions were not written in English. In which language were they written?
My original question was going to be "Is Tetchie Agbayani an innie or an outie?" but I thought that a trivia question about her belly-button was kind of too detailed. (For the record, she was an outie.) The captions -- probably alluding to wild motorcycle rides, how she likes pleasing her man, and the usual silly stuff -- were written in German; Agbayani had posed for the German edition of Playboy. I don't remember the exact text of the captions; I can't read German, and besides, I wasn't exactly looking at the captions. =)
2. What animal is depicted on a Jack and Jill Chiz Curls package?
It was a cow, whose smiling face can be seen on the blue-green package, grinning as the artificial cheese coats your fingers yellow.
3. Six people were killed here in January 1970; seventeen years later, in January 1987, thirteen people also lost their lives in the same location. What place is being referred to?
Ferdinand Marcos and Cory Aquino may be different presidents, but the murder of students and farmers at Mendiola Bridge haunts both their regimes.
4. What did the cast members of Palibhasa Lalaki do at the end of every episode?
The cast had a water/flour/powder/softdrink fight at the end of each episode, much like the pie-in-the-face ending of T.O.D.A.S. A former classmate of mine in college, who had an inexplicable crush on Cynthia Patag, would always wait until the credits in the hope that Cynthia would get really wet.
5. For what store did Rod Navarro and two dwarves make TV advertisements?
The chain store was 680 Home Appliances. The poor vertically-challenged couple had to film a scene in a big 680 box, remember? Awful, awful.
Two people -- "arnolds" and "paddybgil" -- got 4 out of 5.
