So this has never been in the U.S or Europe even ? I cant remember how long ago i'd see '' the skill testing question'' for contests but im pretty sure that goes back as far as i can remember around here. Weird! yet you learn somethin' everyday!
i liked the little scratch card things they had in Hostess Chips way back when. If you put a piece of scotch tape over the scratchy parts it came off a little. You could do that a bit, then hold it up to the light and find the 3 spots that matched so you'd win free chips or whatever it was! bahah. i only got small prizes but that was fun. no math questions for that kind of thing.

Maybe old news, but I don't remember seeing these on here, anyway.
Two talk show appearances by Rory Scovel (Comedians Following Tool on Tour, the Tour). One recent (Kimmel) and one from last year (Conan) discussing that tour.

TOOL NEWSLETTER MARCH 2011, E.V.
Which brings us to the “holy grail” that I mentioned earlier. No, it’s not a cheap guitar signed hastily backstage by all four band members as part of some radio promo. It also doesn’t concern bizarre video props or some Xeroxed set-list that includes “The Grudge”, and which is also signed by Maynard (most likely fabricated). It’s not even the lyrics to a popular Tool song hand written on a Ralph’s grocery bag. No, this is something REALLY special. Are you ready? Suppose I was to tell you that there is a Tool song – recorded in a studio – that hasn’t been heard except for by a handful of people, and that virtually no one outside of the band (and a few others) is aware of its very existence? Keep in mind, this is not a cover (not the rumored “Crazy Train”), nor is it a glorified segue that never made it onto a record. This is an original full-blown Tool song complete with vocals and lyrics. The title of this tune is “Problem 8 (The Riemann Hypothesis)”, and it was recorded many years ago – so long ago, in fact, that I don’t remember who played bass, although I want to say it was Justin. The length is somewhere in the six-minute range (if my memory serves me correctly), but whatever it is, the exact time had something to do with the unsolved and mysterious nature of the title. Now, not only was the song professionally recorded; it was actually ‘issued’ in a manufactured medium (though I’m not going to say whether this was vinyl, a CD, or cassette tape). Because of the ingenious way it was made available to the public, “Problem 8” , in my opinion, constitutes the ultimate hidden track. Only, don’t go looking for it among your collection (most of you, that is!), as there are no more than 30 copies on the planet. As for those who have one, most, I’m sure, aren’t aware of it, even though it might be staring them right in the eye on a near daily basis. The reason they aren’t aware of it, is because they’d never think to play it. Okay, enough said…
