Thursday’s Movie Trivia of the day!‘ How much movie trivia can you answer?
What movie is this quote from??? A: “Two more months.” B: “Two more months.”

Answer: Fargo! Marge Gunderson (Frances McDormand) is one of the few pregnant women in the movies whose birthing process is not depicted in the third reel. The film ends with a still-pregnant Marge and her husband lounging in bed, speaking the above lines. “Fargo”, interestingly enough, is not in any way the story of Marge’s pregnancy — nor is she a resident of Fargo, ND!

Thursday’s Quizzler is……….
You are a prisoner sentenced to death. The Emperor offers you a chance to live by playing a simple game. He gives you 50 black marbles, 50 white marbles and 2 empty bowls. He then says, “Divide these 100 marbles into these 2 bowls. You can divide them any way you like as long as you use all the marbles. Then I will blindfold you and mix the bowls around. You then can choose one bowl and remove ONE marble. If the marble is WHITE you will live, but if the marble is BLACK… you will die.” How do you divide the marbles up so that you have the greatest probability of choosing a WHITE marble?

The answers are: Place 1 white marble in one bowl, and place the rest of the marbles in the other bowl (49 whites, and 50 blacks).
This way you begin with a 50/50 chance of choosing the bowl with just one white marble, therefore life! BUT even if you choose the other bowl, you still have ALMOST a 50/50 chance at picking one of the 49 white marbles.
