Thats correct cloone.. also In Maine, it is illegal to sell a car on Sunday unless it comes equipped with plumbing.

Question. where it's also illegal to stroll down the street playing a violin

I'll give hint to the above answer, its nearly a month of the year backwards

I had avoided this thread because I wasn't online much over the summer. That should change this week!

Whoops... Hi-Catoctin, until President Eisenhower renamed it after his grandson. And before that, it was called the USS Shangri La (yes, even with a nautical name).

Ok, I'll give you that, even although you've got it the wrong way round.


Located 70 miles from the White
House in the Catoctin Mountains of
Maryland, Camp David was
established in 1942 as a place for the
President to relax and entertain.
President Franklin Delano Roosevelt
wanted to escape the summer heat
of Washington, D.C., and the higher
altitude of the Camp provided cool
breezes and good security. President
Roosevelt called the Camp "Shangri-
La" after the mountain kingdom in
James Hilton's book Lost Horizon. It
was renamed Camp David in 1953
by President Eisenhower in honor of
his grandson.

Yes, it was renamed that, and before the renaming it was Shangri-La, that's what I meant, sorry

Right, my go... and a nice hard one it is too. The first Allied submarine casualty of World War II (a Royal Navy sub at that) was sunk by a vessel belonging to which country's navy?
