1. Yes, but only when counter-balanced with a 2 kg. weight.

2. Prussia. The steel was used for barrel-hoops and ladies' undergarments.

3. Both "pi" and "pie" are acceptable.

4. No correct answer for this. Mark it wrong for everyone. The smart, pushy kids will come to your office to complain. When asked what the answer is, tell them: "You can't put it into words. It's a feeling. And right now, I have a feeling you're about to leave my office before I give you an 'F' for the semester."

5. Bangor?! I just met her!

6. Oh, God... I just don't know if I'm able to make that sort of committment. If we try to maintain what we have now, and I'm not able to do it, it could shatter your heart and tear us apart forever. I almost think we should make a clean break of it now, before you leave. By the way, not that I'm interested, because I'm not, but is your roommate seeing anybody? You know: Becky.

7. Krakow, Poland.

8. A straight flush ALWAYS beats four of kind.

9. That's not a roll of quarters. It just feels like it.

10. The onions should be diced, not minced.

11. µ + 2.67. For half-credit, "Vulcanized rubber moist with the slick, hot juices of human carnality" is also acceptable.

12. The character of Virgil is symbolic of pagan wisdom; learned, deeply wise and graceful, but ultimately limited and incomplete without the light of Christ.

13. The character of Beatrice is symbolic of that one girlfriend who broke up with you saying she "needed time to re-connect" with herself, and then connected with your friend Chad.

14. Well, I don't know. Do you think Murray's infidelity is a cry for help?

15. Trick question. God doesn't actually exist.
