1. How many mutual funds does David Pullman
hold in his portfolio? 2. Which of these people played Annie on
a national tour when she was a child? 3. How much did Bola Awofeso pay for his
ham sandwich at E.A.T on the day of the 1999 Fifth Avenue Mile? 4. At the 1999 Fifth Avenue Mile, Eve
Kaplan was found to be reading a book in between races (see
Photo). Which
of the books from our affiliate program
was she reading? 5. How does Audrey Kingsley manage
to run 100+ miles per week while maintaining a busy work schedule? 6. In order to gain admission into the Armory indoor track facility, all users must produce a photo ID. Which one of these photos appear in Craig Chilton's 1999 ID?
7. Once upon a time, we remembered being completely
stumped by this question in the California driver's license written
test: "You are driving up a mountain on a single lane road.
When you see X cars in the rear view mirror behind you, you must
pull over at the next possible place to let them pass. What
is X? (a) two (b) three (c) four (d) five." To this day,
we still don't know the answer. On November 2nd, 1999, the
outdoor track workout was cancelled on site by the coach due to
heavy rains and strong winds. All the same, David Diviney
asked, "Coach, can I do X 200m repeats on the track now?"
What is X? 8. What number was going through Audrey
Kingsley mind after she completed the 1999 New York City Marathon? 9. How many of the biathlons organized by
the New York Triathlon Club did Kurtis Edwards complete
in 1999? 10. Which one of these people does NOT study
hyperbolic systems of conservation laws, the branch of mathematical
physics dealing with shock waves? ANSWERS 1. (d) See article in Arizona Republic (7/11/99). Has he heard of a S&P 500 Index fund? 2. Oops, the answer to this question has just been declared by our Annie to be 'off the record' ... and, no, it was not Audrey Kingsley, who doesn't even know the words in Tomorrow. 3. (d) To quote Audrey Kingsley, "I would never go into E.A.T., unless it is with my mother. I am not stupid, you know." Here is the photo of this famous sandwich --- note that the bottled water was purchased elsewhere. They did give him a E.A.T. paper bag, which counts for something. 4. None of the above, as she was reading a book borrowed from a library. Someone at the scene quipped that she must be reading Bob Glover's book to see where her training went wrong. That is categorically untrue. 5. (d) For evidence, here is a movie clip of her pacing back and forth while talking on the phone. She was telling the person on the other side (Patrick McPhilips, in Chicago), "I'm going to put this down in my training log." 6. (d) The specs call for a passport-size
ID, but the deer-in-the-headlights look is not obligatory.
This photo was intercepted by Audrey Kingsley, who said,
"You've got to put it on the web." When asked for
reasonable cause, she said, "It is very important for me."
When this line of reasoning seemed to have no discernible impact,
she threw in the ultimate persuasion, "I know that deep down
in your heart, you want to do that too!" Huh ...? 7. We weren't around to count and/or time. You'll have to ask David yourself. 8. (d) First things first ... 9. (c) Kurtis completed the Central Park Winter Biathlon, the Bronx Biathlon, the Queens Biathlon, the Blue Kats Biathlon, the New York Biathlon and the Central Park Biathlon. If you also count the Carl Hart Biathlon, which was not organized by the New York Triathlon Club, he would have eight that we are aware of in 1999. 10. (d) Although Audrey doesn't know it yet, when she gets around to doing numerical methods for pricing derivative securities, she will need to know about viscosity solutions and the like ... |
