____________________= ____ Hey everyone, hope your week's been going well. And= your holiday weekend, for that matter. I'm currently stuck in that f= our-day work week time warp that makes four-day weeks seem somehow longer t= han five-day weeks. The [Fark News Livestrea= m](=3D") returns today at 5:30 p.m. It's been a weird week with surprisi= ngly few weird fireworks-related stories. By that I mean there were a ton o= f stories, but none of them had interesting sidebar angles. However, = if you know of one, send it over. This week's theme appears to be Wei= rd Crime. For example, who knew meth isn't a good Narcan replacement?= Also - this is your semi-regular reminder to [sign up for = TotalFark](3D". Want to know how many signups it takes to make my day = brighter? Three. Yup, that's it - just three new signups p= er day. Wanna be one of those three? Now's your chance.
____= ____________________ We now return you to your usual Fark NotNew= sletter.

Apparently it was a bit on the difficult side this week, si= nce no one came close to the 1000 club. Sliding Carp = came out on top with 823, followed by flowerpower in = second with 786 and dracos31 in third with 743. = Booklet made fourth with 742, and OtherLittle= Guy made fifth with 736. The hardest question on last week'= s Hard Quiz was about which sports figure would be again gracing the Wheati= es Box to kick off its 100th Anniversary Century Collector Series. Only 21%= of quiztakers knew the Wheaties people had chosen Muhammad Ali for the hon= or. The first person to grace a Wheaties box was Yankees legend Lou Gehrig,= and the person who has been featured the most is Michael Jordan - a whoppi= ng 18 different boxes, and he's a shoo-in for another one in this new serie= s. The easiest question on last week's Hard Quiz was abou= t which company lost $4 billion in market share on the same day that Portug= uese soccer star Cristiano Ronaldo removed their product from view during a= press conference. 82% of quiztakers knew that it was two bottles of Coca-C= ola that he didn't want to have to peek around to see the people askin= g him questions. I mean, did they expect an athlete in top physical conditi= on just before one of the most important games of his career to pop open a = bottle of pure sugar and take a swig? What's next, razor companies leaving = their products on the podiums in case a quarterback decides to shave mid-pr= ess conference? The hardest question on last week's Easy Quiz was ab= out what souvenir from Disney's "Cruella" was stolen from the Tom Davies st= ore in Sloane Square, London. Only 45% of quiztakers recognized Tom Davies = as one of the world's top manufacturers of designer eyeglasses, and the one= s stolen from the store were actually worn in the movie and intended for a = charity auction. And as anyone who wears corrective lenses can tell you, lo= sing one's eyeglasses is never fun because you can't see to look for them.
The easiest question on last week's Easy Quiz was about singer Georg= e O'Dowd, who is currently looking for someone to play a younger version of= himself in an upcoming biopic. 82% of quiztakers recognized the birth name= of Culture Club's Boy George, and that "Karma Chameleon" was the inevitabl= e name of the movie in the same way that "Bohemian Rhapsody" was pretty muc= h the only thing they could have called the Freddie Mercury biopic. = If you missed out on last week's Quiz,](3D")[you should catch up](3D" = now that you know a few of the answers.
