RE: Trivia Advent Calendar
Eva, your hint is not "sinking in," so I will take another guess which might be far off. I know the Obamas admire Lincoln very much, so I will guess Michelle Obama.

RE: Trivia Advent Calendar
It's not Michelle Obama, Roger, but the gender is correct.

Hint #2: Quite many men would have loved to catch a glimpse of her from that position

Hint #3: As for one well-known facial feature, she reflects Abraham Lincoln.

RE: Trivia Advent Calendar
I agree with Dave.

So when is this "Old Enough To Know Better" supposed to kick in?

You're welcome, Roger. It's become a forum Christmas tradition Eva started that lots of us look forward to. Congrats on being the Champ, too!

RE: Trivia Advent Calendar
I'm afraid due to enormous workload and an average of three (comprehensive!) tests every week during semester I will not make it to do the Trivia Advent Calendar as usual - I hope you understand.
However, during Xmas break there will be an urgent need for some divertissement, and I plan on some substitute trivia calendar project then.
