How come nobody is laughing at my prizes I give away?

Thomas, this can be a tough crowd.
Don't worry about it.

It appears that the self-destruction has already begun. I hope those missing letters aren't bumping into anything important in the atmosphere, stratosphere, or wherever they go to die.

They are safely stored in an old pickle jar, on the top shelf in my root cellar, awaiting the day when they are needed to add knowledge, wisdom, truth, justice and the American way, to a starving word hungry for them. (Hence the pickle jar. I just hope I can get the lid off)

What is the hidden knowledge and wisdom behind EDOFITAEGEHIUADH? (No serious replies, please...)
RE: Assassination Trivia - Gene C - 03-19-2015 11:06 PM
I'd answer that, but it is past my bedtime on a school night and my mom said she would take my computer away if I didn't stop and....

Good boy! This has nothing to do with the thread (nor the forum at all), but these coments just reminded me of a wonderful movie (and fascinating personality) I watched yesterday and I highly recommend (being not a movie person):

Free tickets will be the next trivia price I issue!
So here comes a question - and, please, notice that this is rather a question of the "Extra Credit" category, NOT specifically an assassination trivia question!!! I just put it here to keep it "in touch" with the prize. Also I might not be able to reply during the day, so, please, feel free to post other questions as well. And sorry it's only a photo, not a scan from a book.
What building is this?

Is it a photo of Grover's Theatre?
RE: Assassination Trivia - Eva Elisabeth - 03-20-2015 05:59 AM
The early bird catches the worm...Kudos, Roger - the tickets are yours!!! (Unless you prefer a zonky prize...) I think I had never seen a photo before finally getting a copy of "Mr. Lincoln's Washington", and was thrilled to see this one.
RE: Assassination Trivia - Gene C - 03-20-2015 10:06 AM
Wow...Eva has really raised the bar on trivia prizes... tickets and a worm!
< Note to Eva, here in the states we prefer popcorn with our movies >

Aren't Zonks part of the game show lingo? I don't watch them because I'm at work (but wouldn't anyhow). My grandson picked up on your Zonks and told me he thought they came from The Price is Right.

They actually come from Let's Make A Deal, currently hosted by Wayne Brady.
I watched that show a lot after I had my wisdom teeth removed the summer between 10th and 11th Grade.

See if you all know this one. Which young researchers first research paper about his experience at the Lincoln Tribute is being put on the forum Thursday?
