        it was just 'rich kids', but that's close enough great band they were too.

          Sticking with the theme, what band featured Rick James, Neil Young and two future members of Steppenwolf?

            These questions are culturally and 'age-ally' biased against me

            Just out of curiousity, how old are you Solomwi? I would have took you as 29 or 30 but some of your posts indicate you might be older.

                      Alright, another chip shot to get things rolling:

                      Name Shakespeare's longest and shortest tragedies.

                        MacBeth is pretty short. Don't know if it's the shortest though nor what the longest would be.

                          Hamlet is freaking long. At least Branagh's movie felt that way. I'll say Julius Caesar for shortest, I guess.

                                I know Hamlet as a character has as many lines as are in all of Macbeth, so those would be my first two guesses.
