Since Howard mentions the Torah and jeopardy, here is our summer quiz/jeopardy question:

This 19th century pianist and composer died crushed by the fall of his private library's (heavy) bookshelf  as he was trying to reach the Torah on the top shelf?

(High aspirations sometimes get you crushed under the weight...)

    Way too rich for my intelligence Howard. I'm afraid I don't have the
    necessary "anglican" baggage to get those answers.
    In another vein, the 50th aniversary of the Woodstock festival got
    cancelled! I don't mind about Miley Cyrus, but Santana 50 years later
    would surely have been historically correct.

      And I'm happy to oblige with some of my favorite answers:
      "It's in his kiss"
      "O, reason not the need: our basest beggars
      Are in the poorest thing superfluous."
      "Ehyeh Asher Ehyeh"
      "Put a piece of cheese on the floor and you'll find out."
      "!"
      "What is hateful to you, do not do to your neighbor.   This is the
      entire Torah; the rest is commentary. Go learn."
      "I knew if I stayed around long enough, something like this would
      happen"
      No prizes will be awarded for knowing the questions; this isn't
      "Jeopardy!"
