I'll ask a question. You answer and then set the next question. NO prizes, I'm afraid. But also no limits. Any topic. Q1 : "What breed of dog was bred in Siberia, all white, and named after a tribe in Siberia?" (Carefull!!)

Well let's see It's not a Siberian Husky, they are from Russia, and not white. Could it be........The Samoyed (/ˈsæməjɛd/ SAM-ə-yed or /səˈmɔɪ.ɛd/ sə-MOY-ed; Russian: Самоедская собака) is a breed of dog that takes its name from the Samoyedic peoples of Siberia. These nomadic reindeer herders bred the fluffy white dogs to help with the herding, and to pull sleds when they moved. Also known as.... Bjelkier, Samoiedskaya Sobaka, Nenetskaya Laika Nicknames Smiley, Sammy Country of origin Northwest Russia and Western Siberia Oh my turn What were the names of Scarlett O'Hara's children ? And Bonus points : Who were their Daddy's

PERFECT! The Samoyed. (Thank you, Cash Cab!)
Hmmmmm.. Bonnie Blue Butler - Rhett's little girl who broke her neck falling off her pony, then Rhett shot the pony...
I don't remember any other children - so NEXT! Oh, wait, didn't she have a still-birth - a little boy?
No, NEXT! If I had to guess, I'd say it was Frank's child.
I DON'T KNOW!

Soooo. As Mike isn't a forum member, I get to set the next question!
In the spirit of your Holmes and Watson link in the story, Brooks :
"What species and breed of animal was The Hound of the Baskervilles"?

I think they used an Irish Wolfhound in at least one of The Hound of the Baskervilles movies. Since I donated my copy of the book to Goodwill earlier this year, I cheated and well, the internet says, and I have to believe it for this, that it was a Bloodhound/Mastiff mix.
I'll give you all an easy one.
Which land animal has the largest eye?

Yup, horses have the largest eye of a land mammal, but the Ostrich takes the cake. Hmmm, have no idea how many times Rhett Butler was married, gonna guess once? Have actually never seen the whole movie. However, I have seen this... www.youtube.com/watch?v=TjhtxfSMIWk

That actress was Vicki Lawrence (sp)
Let's stick with her for this question. What song made her a One Hit Wonder?

The night the lights went out in Georgia. Big Tee's answer
Bara's answer Hattie McDaniel, she was wonderful.
Also, you should know that the book is very different then the movie. More things happen in the book of course and that does include the second book "Scarlett" which I thought was very good.

Hattie McDaniel! Yes, she was incredible. Wasn't she the first black actress to win an Academy award? (Not a quiz question.)
Do you remember the scene when Rhett brought her red petticoats? (That's in the book, too!) Ahh, there WAS some good in Rhett.
Have we decided that Rhett married only once?
If so - next question : (Staying with films and specially for you, Brooks!)
"Who was Louise Brooks?"

No, Bara Rhett was married before Scarlett, the bad boy took some young thing out on a buggy ride and didn't return til after dark, so he had to marry her. She died in child birth along with the child. Yes the Red petticoats were in the book, she wanted to be buried with them on.
Louise Brooks (November 14, 1906 – August 8, 1985), born Mary Louise Brooks, was an American dancer and actress, noted for popularizing the bobbed haircut.
Brooks is best known as the lead in three feature films made in Europe, including two G. W. Pabst films: Pandora's Box (1929), Diary of a Lost Girl (1929), and Prix de Beauté (Miss Europe, 1930). She starred in seventeen silent films and eight sound films before retiring in 1935. Brooks published her memoir, Lulu in Hollywood, in 1982, three years later she died of a heart attack at the age of 78.
Pass on next question.
