Recently, Howard Stern hosted Julie Cailini (Playboy's 1996 Playmate of the Year) and Stacey Sanchez (1997 Playmate of the Year) for a morning of, uh, 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. Following are the sad results:
Q1: Who is the President of Russia?
Julie: "Gorbachev."
Stacey: "Gretzky."
(correct answer: Boris Yeltsin)

Q2: 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)

Q3: Who was the inventor of the lightbulb?
Julie: "...I know Edison invented the telephone, but I can't remember the lightbulb guy."
Stacey: "I don't know."
(correct answer: Thomas A. Edison; Alexander Graham Bell was the phone guy)

Q4: Who is the Speaker of the House?
Julie: "Gore something-or-other."
Stacey: "Bill Clinton."
(correct answer: Newt Gingrich)

Q5: Define the meaning of the "CIA."
Julie: "I don't know."
Stacey: "Certified Investigation Association."
(correct answer: Central Intelligence Agency)

Q6: 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:]
Q7: What do the initials "DK" stand for?
A: Both knew it was fashion designer "Donna Karan."
Q8: What is "Cristal?"
A: Each knew it was both an elite champagne and a premium vodka.
Q9: What car company has a model known as a "911?"
A: Both knew it was Porsche.
Q10: Who's face is on the U.S. $100 bill?
A: Bboth knew it was Benjamin Franklin.
