We started working on this idea on a long drive to New Mexico back in June. Now, a mere three months later, we have a shoe-in for the Academy Awards' "Best Picture Involving Traffic Cones." Filming actually took place on Labor Day and I'm now wondering if the professionals would also spend four hours putting together enough footage for a four minute film and then need another four hours of editing.

In nine spaces in the Sudoku grid, there are letters, (A) - (I). If you can match the letter with the digit, you place that digit into the Sudoku grid. For example, George Washington was the first president so you know that where the (C) appears in the Sudoku grid, you can place a "1" since Washington's term was (1) 1789 - 1797.

Don't know the trivia? You can still solve the puzzle, it's just harder.

Some of the puzzles are triple trivias where we've taken 27 of the digits out of the puzzle and we give you three sets of nine trivia matches.

Most people think it's very easy (0.52 on a scale of 0 - 5), but they seem to like it. If you don't get the answer, mouse over the white space :     pie   : to see it. A big reason for doing this riddle has to do with my daughter finding a song on the internet, which you can find here. Listen to it and it will all become clear.

Like a dungeon under castle vast,
 With bars of stone, by no smith cast,
Prisoners are locked away,
 Trapped in darkness, there they stay.
Invaders wend their way inside
 A prisoner's picked, and taken high.
His richness stolen, his heart they keep,
 The carcass tossed into a heap.
This dungeon deep, it's not YOUR own,
 Heavy metal fortress, hard rock home.

Very touching as a game,
A place where Tommy keeps his name.
A pup no longer is unknown,
How a value's often shown.
