So, what do we do now? Keep the quiz questions in this post or put them in the others?

I am bored, there was no quiz today?

This is an easy one, so I expect to see one of the Newbies in here with an answer fast!

Where was this picture taken and why is it famous?

Hi Richard,

See post #2.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)
