Welcome to the Trivia Page! At my alma mater, Linfield, I was thought of as being smart....
by some, anyway. But what they didn't realize was that I'm not that smart, I just know lots
of pointless trivia! I knew so many that, to one of my better teachers, Mr. Raf, I would dispense
a piece of trivia each day. Well, before I left him and Linfield, I vowed that I would still give
him a piece of trivia each day. Well, here it is, my trivia of the day!
The word, Scooby-Doo, Name to famous cartoon dog and popular scat word, actually stems from the French Hatians, who used a currency called Scoubidou in the 1700's. It would seem that the currency became fairly pointless, eventually worth about half a penny. The phrase Scoubidou eventually became a Slang term meaning "worthless", sort of like the Cartoon dog. :)
