O'Quiz!!!
It's Monday, and for the first time in months I've remembered to link the O'Quiz, the toughest current events online quiz contest in the world. I scored a miserable 5 out of 10, and that was still above average. Take the O'Quiz now and post your pathetic, limp-wristed scores in the comments.

7 of 10. But look, Tigerhawk, many years ago I took the mental part of the draft physical, which had a section showing odd machines (sheet metal folders, for instance). I pointed out to the test administrator that actually to know these machines indicated you had not spent time developing your intellect. He said, "Huh? You're in Group I. What the hell you care, hunh?"
, at8 for 10. missed questions 5 & 10.

That was nasty. I'm with you TH, a new low for me (5). Wait, I didn't mean it that way!
Attorney for Anita? Why would she need an attorney when everyone was (much later) on her side? It just adds to my concern. That women is responsible for us?
New heights await us.

8 out of 10. Guessed that Janet rep'd Gore, and thought that Brown's book hadn't been out long enough.
Always fun, but I had forgotten about it too.
8 out of 10. Missed #5 and #7.

7/10 Could have done better if I hadn't changed two answers. Had Anita Hill but switched to Bill Clinton. Also figured that NBC would have been hit for all of the above but was certain of the paid interview.
As for the best seller...Call me a rogue. Never heard of "Lost Symbols"

Probably can't be done, but it would be cool if the O'Quiz people could give you the average score of the people who followed the TH link to take the quiz. I am guessing that the TH readership is better informed than the average O'Quiz taker.
