Hi M. Le Triv,
Pammy and Kid Rock, rock & roll royalty? What-ev-errr?!
Here in Europe we got Peter Andre and Katie (Jordan) Price. Kid Rock and Pam are so clearly the knock-offs! They copied our Katie and Pete!
It's sooooooooo obvious.
Props to Jordan and Peter from Down Under.
They are the real stars.

Hi Missy,
Not really an Ask Mr Trivia, was it? While some sans taste might find Jordan and ex-pat, former Oz, Andre, resemble rock and roll royalty; I think their resemblance is analogous to the way in which a Vic 20 resembles a Blackberry. Do you feel me?

Sticky Problem
Hello Mr Trivia,
Got a tricky one here, son. I know you're supposed to use peanut butter to get chewing gum out of your hair, but how do you get hair out of your gum? I have a piece of Wrigley's that I have been chewing and resting on my bedside table for the last 72 hours. Somewhere along the way, a hair has become entangled in it. The gum is good for at least another 48 hours, so you can see I'm really in a tight spot here - I simply have to continue my chewing regimen.
I've already tried using peanut butter b.t.w. and it didn't work.

Hello Carl,
Eat around the hair carefully, dispose of the piece with the strand of hair in it. Presto!
Mr Trivia
Mr Trivia needs to express his outrage that there does not appear to be an Asterix in Space book. The brand needs to move in this direction, surely?

Enough, already...
Triv,
Seriously, dude. Kid Rock? Isn't it time you turned to non-Kid Rock related items? There's plenty happening in the world, today buddy. John Howard suffered a reversal in the senate, financial experts are concerned that 2007 isn't looking too bright because world oil prices will continue to rise, interest rates are going up...
And I don't really give a crap about any of that - I just can't deal with hearing about Kid Rock all the damn the time. I mean who the hell is Kid Rock for crying out loud!

Hi Anti,
I'm glad you asked. Kid Rock is Detroit rap-metal-country artist, Robert James Ritchie. Check his Wikipedia profile here or his official website here. Oh, and Uncle Kracker used to be in his band - need I say more? Perhaps one more thing, Kid Rock is a free spirit who roams the sunlit uplands of our popular culture like a spritely faun. (Think Mr Tumnus, but with more street cred).
Later dude,
Mr Trivia
Mr Trivia feels it is incumbent upon his position as a cultural commentator to remind you of these Culture Club lyrics: "War is stupid, People are stupid and love means nothing in some strange quarters." Ohh, yeah. Thrusk.

Stop Dissin' Kid Rock!
Hi Mr Trivia,
I like the way you try to answer people's questions with an answer, even when you have no idea what you're talking about. But it seems like you're always dissin' my man, Kid Rock. What up, G?
Bryce Kwok,

Hi Bryce,
Make no mistake, Kid Rock is the Man. Adam Levine of Maroon 5 isn't worthy to iron Mr Rock's shirt (when he cares to wear one). In addition, Kid recently got hitched to Pamela Anderson. She was tired of being with wayward, impulsive, attention-seekers like Tommy Lee, so clearly Mr Rock was a breath of fresh air.
Best of luck to the Rocks. May happiness find them wherever they roll.

Television Getting Dumber?
Yo, Mister Triv,
Am I getting a smarter or is television, particularly commercial, free to air, network television, becoming even stupider?
Puzzled, Frankfurt,
Germany, EUROPE
Dear Puzzled,
Television is getting more and more stupid. Bits of it are still quite good. Deadwood, Battlestar Galactica, Myth Busters and The Trailer Park Boys for example, but most of it is extremely stupid and insulting. Australian free-to-air commercial telly is about as intelligent and engaging as a stepped-on Tamagotchi.
Interestingly you are getting smarter, too. As a species we are evolving about as fast as television is devolving. However the internet and associated tech is evolving about twice as fast as we are, so expect to get lapped by your PC any day now.
Cheers & Elevate the Insignificant,
Mr Trivia
