Sample question answers
1. Abraham Lincoln (He issued the proclamation in 1863, in the middle of the Civil War. In 1941, Congress fixed the date as the fourth Thursday of November.)
2. Neiman Marcus {NEE-mun MAR-kus} (Its 2025 fantasy gifts included a $500,000 portrait session with Annie Leibovitz {LEE-buh-vits} and a $47,000 custom Christian Louboutin {loo-boo-TAN} saddle.)
3. The thigh (Butterball says the most accurate reading comes from the thickest part of the thigh, because it heats more slowly than the breast.)
