O'Quiz!!!
In the Big D for the night, at the Rosewood Crescent Hotel, which is quite nice. Fired up the television and surfed to O'Reilly, which put it in my mind to take this week's O'Quiz. It is a tough one -- the average score as of this writing is 5.77, and it has been up for more than two days -- but I guessed my way to 8 out of 10. Take the O'Quiz and report your score like the man or woman you are.

8/10 - Highest I've gotten. Tripped up on the '57 filibuster & (couldn't believe I got this wrong) the town honouring the leaker dude. Poop.
, at7/10, but I'm not buying the no cigarette story ay all

6/10, but I have an excuse: in a move towards sanity, I gave up my obsessive current events reading two weeks ago. Damned near cold turkey. It's a sanity thing, what with the GOP acting like Dems again already and the worst Congress in history intent on using every last minute to destroy whatever they left un-fucked before the election.
BTW: I'm with Iowa John. Obambi is still doing fags. Bet on it.
50%. That sounds better than 5.
And I too don't believe the Obama ciggie story.
You answered 8 of 10 correctly.
The average score on this O'Quiz is 5.75
On the two I missed, my initial answer would have been the correct one, the one I selected was wrong, go figure.
8/10, but with a couple of WAGs. Missed Edwards's profession and who signed the $500M contract.

9/10. Missed Strom Thurmond. Yes, I do not have a life.

A paltry 4!!
I will have to wear the dunce cap and sit in the corner this week.

9/10. Sorry, I have zero confidence that Obama has not had a cigarette in nine months.

If I'd known you were in town, I would have offered to buy you a drink. Are you headed out today?

8/10 - not bad, but many were just guesses. Good quiz!

6/10. My excuse is that I haven't been reading the news at all for weeks.

9 out of 10, but 3 lucky guesses correct.

You answered 9 of 10 correctly.
I got the one wrong about what city the kids did so well on their tests... other wise.. I did pretty good this time... time for a drink!!
See ya
cathy : )
Seven, including the cigarette answer, which I still do not believe, but it was in the news reports.
, at7.. although truthfully, I bounced back and forth on the Howard Stern and Berkeley questions for awhile ... so (in my mind) I'll take a nine (and a celebratory glass of California Cab for my troubles)

I can't believe Howard Stern is worth that much

6/10, a lot going on "K... what have I heard when listening for the weather report."
Amazed at how many others are skipping the news, too!
(I got my Christmas cards out-- did you?)
9/10 got the national motto wrong, just like Obama. But I believe in God, he doesn't.

9 out of 10. I missed question #9.
I didn't think it was that difficult. I knew all of them except the one I missed. I don't follow celebrities much.
