Does that mean I get one of those gold bears from Lindt? They are so good!

More likely to get a gold "gummy" bear
Which reminds me of a song

Gene, I love the Gummy Bear Song! My mom doesn't! Eva, I've been pretty naughty! But I can recite this hilarious poem:
Little birdie in the sky
drop some white wash in my eye!

Well, since honesty is a virtue and two lines are a beginning that might do.
Happy Nikolaus! What/who hides here?

RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - RJNorton - 12-06-2015 06:03 AM
I cannot tell what it is at all. Is it a floor?
RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Eva Elisabeth - 12-06-2015 06:57 AM
A very good guess, Roger, and somehow quite close, but it's not a floor.
Hint #: Here's a larger "peep":

Hint #2: Rogers idea as for the floor is locally close.
Hint #3: This item matches the Day.

Looks like leather from a shoe or boot.
I'll guess Booth's boot that was cut off.
Whether I'm right or not. that reminds me of a song

(is it getting warm in here, or is it just me?)

Brilliant, Gene, that is correct. You can see the entire photo here on the forum:

Gene, you win a filled Nikolaus boot.

PS: Love the song.

Gene, everything reminds you of a song! I like it!

For a change, this is a "normal" trivia question. Who hides behind #7?

RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - J. Beckert - 12-06-2015 11:27 PM
Edwin L. Stanton?
RE: Trivia Advent Calendar - Eva Elisabeth - 12-07-2015 10:09 AM
Excellent guess, Herr Beckert, but it's not he.
Hint #1: If not here, I would have posted this on the "MTL Trivia" thread.
