So... everyone seems to like quizzes.
Lets see how you do on a series of smaller fact LIST stuff. I have also included some history or lore of the Piepmeier house from previous years.
These are rated in degree of difficulty from 1 to 5 stars. One star (*) is as easy as Hugo sleeping on the back of the sofa. Five stars (*****) is as hard as The Mom.
So, here we go
1)What were the 3 rules for the phone...
Two of the answers are (*)
One of the answers is (***)
2)What did Trey do in the 3 year old Sunday school class... (**)
3)Name at least 2 out of the 5 or 6 rules for the Homecoming Parade Donut Toss... (**)
(excluding "NO overhand donut tossing"...)
and now a harder question
4)How many "uhhs" would Alisons boy-friends say when they would call her on the phone and I would inadvertently answer... (****)
Remember, think of your answers before you go to the comment section in case someone has already posted some of them. And, just because some answers are posted doesn't mean they are 100% correct. You could revise them.
Yea, fun stuff...

Ooo, I know a bunch of these!
Rules for the phone:
1. No calls after 9 p.m.
2. I had to answer the phone whenever I was at home from the ages of 14-17. (This probably doesn't count as a rule, but I do remember this.)
3. No talking on the phone during dinner.
Homecoming Donut Toss Rules:
--Pace yourself.
--Make eye contact BEFORE you throw the donut. No throwing donuts AT people.
--Hide the donuts from the Fijis.
And finally, the correct answer for the last question is, "Uh, hello, uh, is , uh, Alison, uh, home, uh?" Five!
Yea
Yes, you both have most of them right.
1)No calls before 8 am or after 10 pm
No calls during dinner
When Alison is home, she has to answer the phone (this one is a great fact LIST and was thought of by the Mom)
2)(Keep thinking about this one or ask Trey)
3)There are several:
-Lead the person with the donut so they don't lean off the float
-Make sure the person sees you before you toss the donut
-Pace yourself - don't have it raining donuts
-No tossing donuts in the tubas
-Watch out for roaming fraternities
-Don't toss a donut at the Homecoming Queen
4)The correct response to this question is:
Hello uhh... is uhh... Alison uhh... home uhh...
For a total of 4 (as spoken to me in one evening by Jason, Sam and Marty on 3 different occasions over the phone)
The conversations went like this:
"Ring, ring"
The Dad: "Hello"
Slacker du jour: "Oh.... hello uhh is uhh Alison uhh home uhh..."
The Dad: "No, may I take a message"
Slacker du juor: "Uhh, no, uhh, thats OK, uhh, I can uhh call her uhh, back later uhh..."
The Dad: "OK"
Slacker du juor: "When uhh do you uhh expect her uhh..."
The Dad: "About 9 o'clock"
Slacker du juor: "Uhh OK uhh thanks. Uhh what time uhh is it now uhh.."
The Dad: (looking at his watch) "It's about 8:10"
Slacker du juor: "8:10... uhh.. OK Then I should uhh call her uhh back in about uhh... uhh... uhh..."
The Dad: "(sigh) In about 50 minutes"
Slacker du juor: "Oh, Yeah.. uhh... Thanks uhh... Good Bye uhh..."
The Dad: (staring at the receiver and shaking his head) "OK, Good bye"
