Ocker Quiz #3

Ok, on to Round #3. Points awarded have tripled for this round, so get ready!

Question:

You're walking through a Queensland supermarket, let's say Coles. You're looking for a sign that says "Manchester". What are you looking to buy?

Anyone? Anyone?

A soccer jersey! No, wait.

I do need to go to that section. Pink towels? The hell was I thinking?

Now I want to go watch some Aerial pingpong.

Not exactly sheets and bedding - stained sheets and bedding after a solid night of drinking, public urination, and the inevitable loss of sphincter control.

A type of Jewish newspaper with important info mation for travelors. It is also a type of propane tank.

Kramer from Seinfeild would classify it as a new line of mens bras or bros .

Special thanks to Wikipedia (is that cheating?), but manchester is the common Australian term for household linens. Keep up the great quizzes!

Well, sure, the common usage these days is for towels, bedding, pillows, even futon covers. In a different era and a different store (not Cole's), the sign for Manchester might have referred to a selection of long-bladed knives for sale. These were used for hacking through dense underbrush such as you'd find in the hot tropical environment of San Jose (cough). These famous knives were made in Manchester, UK, and which some people think the word "machete" came from.

If Cole's actually sold these, I bet you'd use one on this adventure.

You're all wrong. Including you, Scott. It's cheese. Try some, it's good.
