Hey, it's time for another round of the world-famous "Captain Obvious Quiz Game"! Yay!

The questions these week are:
 (1) "If reality and documentation do not match, where is the bug?"
    (a) Documentation is buggy
    (b) Reality is buggy
 (2) "Where would you put the horse in relationship to a horse-drawn carriage?"
    (a) in front
    (b) in the carriage

Now, if you answered (a) to both these questions, and had this been a real quiz show, you might have been a winner and the happy new owner of a remote-controlled four-slice toaster with a fancy digital timer.

Sadly, this was just a dry-run for the real thing, to give people a quick taste of the world-famous "Captain Obvious Quiz Game". I hope you tune in next week for our exciting all-new questions.
