The Trio Game

[Chase]

1. In the line of Alfred the Great
2. Had trouble with the Danes
3. Unready

Oh, Bott, that was so unfair! Every British king and queen (including Lizzie II) has been descended from Al the Great, and England had trouble with the Danes up to Victor Borga, ha ha ha. Lucky for Byrdie there was only one "The Unready."

1. Established September 3, 301.
2. Oldest constitution in the world.
3. 25 square miles

I think it's San Marino, famous for castles on cliffs and steep terraced land . . . infamous for the world's worst soccer teams (probably because they can't find a level place large enough for a regulation field).

 

[Byrdie714]

sounds like Vatican

Nope, sorry.

Oh, uhmmm ... 'The Vatican City'?

Nope, sorry.

Gibraltar

Nope, sorry.

You thought right Professor Chase. It's San Marino, one of the two countries inside of Italy!

Your turn.

Manix

Don't be silly Cowpuppy, Manix was a fictional robot, not a fictional human. (I must win)

Just for you Bottesini.... Enter CharlieChan.net

The big question is: Is Chase looking for the author or what???? We shall wait and see.

That is a great site.Thanks. I remember Keye Luke who was #1 son as an old man when I was a kid.

Ha ha...I was referring to the tv series....Book em Danno
Honolulu Detective Mannix Joe Mannix or something
I must be old

Sorry Cowpuppy I forgot that Mannix, but he wasnt Chinese. We know Chase's real guy was from name Chang.

 

[Cowpuppy]

ok....just recall that the Mannix character was created from a real cop. So....thought there may be a play on the name. Possibly same person but Mannix a made up name. So the name wrong. oh well.....live and learn

Sorry I took so long. I was gone. Byrdie is first with the close-enough answer. I was just after Biggers's title character, Charlie Chan.

I know Bottesini's answer was more accurate by English spelling, but in Chinese, Chan and Chang are just regional differences. It was my fault 'cause I should've answered sooner. Sorry.

Your turn, Byrdie.

 

[Byrdie714]

Thanks Chase....

Time for clues for another geography lesson:

Rats! Byrdie answered before I could. The Maltese Falcon is one of my all-time favorites.

Bott: I'm so sorry if I made you believe you had offended. You didn't at all. And your spelling was exact and correct. It's just Byrdie's was close enough. My bad all around.

 

[Bottesini]

The Maltese Falcon?

Correct. Your turn.
