Can You Handle the Challenge of Bob?

Here's the challenge: I, Bob, shall ask you 5 simple questions. You must answer them correctly, or risk facing my wrath!

Question 1: The Most Important Question of All Or, if you're feeling confident: Go straight to the second question, but don't say I didn't warn you And, if you're really, really confident: You may as well jump straight to question 3 and try to save your dignity But be warned, it only gets harder from here... The Final Showdown: If you make it this far, you might just be worthy of a prize... Note: The hyperlinks are to fictional sub-pages that would allow users to navigate the 'Bob's Challenge' series.
