Candid Camera Punk'd Candid Camera 21 minutes ago, dgrimm60 said: CANDID CAMERA Answer: Candid Camera was a popular and long running hidden camera reality television series. Created and hosted by Allen Funt, the comedy series started as a radio show called “Candid Microphone” in 1947 before making the transition to television in 1948. The show involved hidden cameras filming ordinary people being confronted with unusual situations. When the practical joke was revealed, victims were told the show's catchphrase, "Smile, you're on Candid Camera." The series paved the way for other hidden camera shows like Punk’d, Impractical Jokers, Betty White’s Off Their Rockers and The Carbonaro Effect.

Grant James Buchanan Harry S. Truman Gerald Ford James Buchanan 5 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: JAMES BUCHANAN Answer: James Buchanan was the 15th president of the United States, and served in office from 1857 to 1861. Buchanan is the only U.S. president who never married. In 1819, Buchanan became engaged to Ann Coleman, the daughter of a wealthy iron mogul. Amidst rumors that Buchanan was seeing other women, Coleman broke off the engagement. She died shortly thereafter, leaving Buchanan brokenhearted. Buchanan vowed to never marry, and he never did. During Buchanan’s time in the White House, his niece Harriet Lane assumed the responsibilities of first lady. James Buchanan is the only president to remain a lifelong bachelor in U.S. history.

Speed Limit Yield Stop Merge Yield 5 hours ago, dgrimm60 said: YIELD Answer: The yield sign was designed by Clinton Riggs, a Highway Trooper in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He saw a need for the sign in his hometown when repeated accidents occurred at the intersection of First Street and Columbia Avenue. Upon seeing the success of his sign, Tulsa officials posted more yield signs, and the trend began to spread to nearby cities. The modern American yield sign is an inverted equilateral triangle; the outer edge of the sign is bordered with a thick, solid red line while the word “yield” is printed onto the inside white triangle in red, capitalized letters.

It has recorded some of the most detailed visible light images, allowing a deep view into space. Many Hubble observations have led to breakthroughs in astrophysics, such as determining the rate of expansion of the universe. The telescope is named after the astronomer Edwin Hubble.

Donald Trump Abraham Lincoln Ronald Reagan John F Kennedy Lincoln Answer: Abraham Lincoln was an accomplished wrestler who was inducted into the Wrestling Hall of Fame in 1992. The Great Emancipator wasn’t quite WWE material, but thanks to his long limbs he was an accomplished wrestler as a young man. Defeated only once in approximately 300 matches, Lincoln reportedly talked a little smack in the ring. Honest Abe once challenged an entire crowd of onlookers after dispatching an opponent: “I’m the big buck of this lick. If any of you want to try it, come on and whet your horns.” There were no takers. Lincoln’s grappling exploits earned him an “Outstanding American” honor in the National Wrestling Hall of Fame.
