    I am in!... I love CP :) .

    After exhaustive research I give you the answers... :cool:

    Q: What vegetable is Matt Polk so allergic to that he keeps the phrase “No
    “ written in five languages on a card in his wallet?

    That would be Frankenberry (or was it count Chocula?)

    Q: What was the first tweeter that Polk Audio made and sold?

    The dodo... which of course went extinct during the first production run so was replaced by a monkey sitting behind a garbage can lid.

    Q: What extremely rare Polk Audio product was only manufactured from 1978-1979?

    It was a disco ball that dispensed condoms when punched with sufficient force.

    Q: What was significant about Polk Audio's introduction of the famous Cobra Cable in 1977?

    At it's first introduction to the public it spit in the eye of a Bose salesman before constricting him in a tortuous embrace and then swallowing him whole.

    Q: What was the crossover architecture difference between the Monitor 5, 7 and 10, in the original Monitor series (circa 1979)?

    The 5 liked to dress in short skirts. The 7 and 10 were not as **** and very passable.

    Q: What was the first speaker that I (Stu Lumsden) voiced entirely on my own and in about what year?

    I think that was the big horn-shaped thingy that old men used to stuff in their ear... circa 1867.

    Q: What car audio product never made it to retail yet toured the nation as part of the eventual new lineup?

    John Mellencamp

    Q: What does the "SL" stand for in the SL series of tweeters?

    "Stand back Jim! The tribbles are multiplying by the buttLoad!

    Q: What does the "MW" and "RD" stand for on the bass drivers?

    "Men's Wearhouse" and "Red Dawn"

    Q: Who developed the RM3000 phased array tweeter?

    Halliburton and Blackwater

    Q: What does A.I.M. stand for and what did it do? (SDA Question)

    Are you Insane Man??

    "IN" please!!!
    I never had it like this where I grew up. But I send my kids here because the fact is you go to one of the best schools in the country: Rushmore. Now, for some of you it doesn't matter. You were born rich and you're going to stay rich. But here's my advice to the rest of you: Take dead aim on the rich boys. Get them in the crosshairs and take them down. Just remember, they can buy anything but they can't buy backbone. Don't let them forget it. Thank you.Herman Blume - Rushmore

    Give me a hour or so to get the answers typed and I'll probably need some time to figure out who answered the most correctly.

    Thanks for joining guys and I hope the new owner is happy with his Karma gift :D
