Calvin and Hobbes is pretty good, but it was from a while ago, and is from the U.S. If you're from another country or younger, you may not have heard of it.

I was never a big comics guy, but I loved Calvin & Hobbes. I thought it was brilliant and very funny. Even inspired me one winter to make my own two-headed snowman in our front yard....just to crack my brother up. (he got me started with C&H) Best snowman I ever made. Definitely made my brother laugh. I wonder what the neighbors thought though? :-/

I didn't understand the grammar of the second question. When I finally managed to get the answer anyway, I realized that "faced" is supposed to be a noun.

H Answers Quiz #1 and #2 both include Hanoi as an answer. I'd suggest to change one of the clues to Vietnam's biggest city, Ho Chi Minh City.

"The Hexagon" is a very well known (well, common at least) nickname of Metropolitan France, just like Italy can be referred as "the Boot". You can even find the hexagon represented on the French national side of the 1€ and 2€ coins.

I don't understand the second one. Who or what is this "Helen"?

P.S.: found it - it seems that this quote is not so well known in german, at least I never heard it.

Tenzing Norgay was with Hillary and they reached the summit together. I would prefer the question to say something like: Along with Tenzing Norgay, was the first to summit Mt. Everest.
