A few months ago, Howard Stern hosted Julie Cailini ('96
Playmate of the Year) and Stacey Sanchez ('97 Playmate
of the Year) for a morning of sordid joviality. The ladies,
who were promoting their latest calendars, answered ten
questions from Howard, ostensibly to demonstrate how
important it is for them *AS ROLE MODELS* for young
women to stay up on current affairs. The ladies' answers
were amusing (and a bit sad), but the bit did prove that
you don't have to be a neurosurgeon to earn a pile of cash!
Love him or hate him, you have to appreciate Howard's
sense of the absurd.
Q: Who is the President of Russia?
Julie: Gorbachev
Stacey: Gretzky
(correct answer: Boris Yeltsin)
Q: Define the meaning of NAACP.
Julie: Something, something, for Certified Pianists
Stacey: It's some kind of police organization.
(correct answer: National Association for the
Advancement of Colored People)
Q: Who was the inventor of the light bulb?
Julie: I know Edison invented the telephone, but I can't
remember the light bulb guy.
Stacey: I don't know.
(correct answer: Thomas A. Edison. Alexander
Graham Bell was the phone guy!)
Q: Who is the Speaker of the House?
Julie: Gore something-or-other.
Stacey: Bill Clinton.
(correct answer: Newt Gingrich. For the benefit
of international members of the market, Al
Gore is the U.S. Vice President, Bill
Clinton is our president.)
Q: Define the meaning of the letters CIA.
Julie: I don't know.
Stacey: Certified Investigation Association.
(correct answer: Central Intelligence Agency)
Q: What is the center of our solar system?
Julie: The Equator
Stacey: The Moon
(correct answer: The Sun)
Changing his tack to create better odds for the girls, Howard
switched to what he termed "industry related" questions:
Q: What do the initials "DK" stand for?
A: both knew it was fashion designer "Donna Karan."
Q: What is "Cristal?"
A: both knew it was an elite champagne
Q: What car company has a model known as a "911?"
A: both knew it was Porsche
Q: Whose face is on the (U.S.) $100 bill?
A: both knew it was Ben Franklin
