Open Thread (Updated, asked, and answered)

[UPDATE: Bumped and answered below the fold, but don't let that stop you from considering this an open thread]

This is the thread in which you may make wild guesses about what I consider interesting and entertaining about the Jimmie Rodgers post, and why I mentioned the little glimmers of light...

UPDATE: And to make it a little bit easier, I supplied the rest of the answers to the quiz.

So the big mystery, herewith answered, is that of the questions asked in the Jimmie Rodgers quiz:

1) the odd-numbered questions were songs recorded by Jimmie Rodgers, while

2) the even-numbered questions were songs recorded by Jimmie Rodgers.

Jimmie Rodgers was born in 1897 and died in 1933, and is considered the "Father of Country Music".

Jimmie Rodgers was born in 1933 (the year that Jimmie Rodgers died), is still living, and is considered a reasonably well-known pop singer from the 1950s.

And if you're confused by all this, you're not the only one. Look closely at this page of Jimmie Rodgers songs. I've been giggling ever since I found it.
