18 of 20, that was fun. # 20 will get you if you read it too fast.

[xtrememoosetrax]

I got 17 out of 20, and I'm not even quite 50 yet! I don't know if I should be proud of this or not . . . . . 

[bolta72]

 

[Hawkeye]

12 out of 20.  Not bad for a 30 year old.

[Sluff]

16 out of 20

[MiSSis]

Egads, I'm really showing my age here ... 19 of 20. 

(Almost wishing I'd missed more!   )

[petey]

Marvin got 17 right -- but I only got 14.  He's a lot older than I am  (he's 52, I'm only 45).

Loved this, karol!

[rose1999]

I'm kind of proud that I only got 7 - which means I must only be about 18 OR it means that a lot of them were about something we didn't have in the UK.  I'll let you decide which it is 

[petey]

Marvin got 17 right -- but I only got 14. He's a lot older than I am (he's 52, I'm only 45).

Marvin has requested that I correct my previous post.  He said he got more right because he's SMARTER than I am (being older had nothing to do with it).  Yeah, right!  Everybody who believes that, stand on your head!

[oswald]

i got 16 out of 20.

[KR Cincy]

19 out of 20...I never was  Pogo fan, but I have heard that before...ah well...
And I won't take it hard that I'm not over 60 (or even over 50) and have all that fairly useless information floating around my brain!!

[kitkatz]

I got 16 out of 20.  Must be younger than I feel.

[thegrammalady]

i got 20 out of 20. does that make me older than dirt? and no i'm not 60.

[Bajanne]

I got 10 out of 20, but that is not bad for someone from another culture, right?

[Wattle]

13 out of 20

I don't think being an Australian helped     Who is Pogo?? 

[Ang]

10/20, thats  what  you  get  for  being  an  aussie

[charee]

[tamara]

another 13/20 to add to the collection

[BigSteve]

19 out of 20, must be because I''m turning 70 this year. Where does the "lions and tigers" quote
com from? My only miss.

[Joe Paul]

Might be a trick question, but it comes from the movie "The Wizard of OZ"

[glitter]

I got 19 out of 20 right- and I am not even 40 yet!




lions, tigers, and bears -Oh my!' was from the Wizard of Oz

[paris]

20/20 - I must have huge amounts of useless information in my tired brain - or I am really old.   I do remember watching Howdy Dowdy; hey kids, what time is it?  I can't remember what I ate for breakfast!

[petey]

19 out of 20, must be because I''m turning 70 this year. Where does the "lions and tigers" quote

BigSteve...There's Dorothy, the Scarecrow, and the Tin Man in "The Wizard of Oz" going through the dark forest, linked arm-in-arm, saying, "Lions, and tigers, and bears ... Oh my!     Lions, and tigers, and bears ... Oh my!"  Then, who jumps out from behind a tree? The Cowardly Lion  -- who pretends to be "big and bad" and scares them all until he chases Toto and Dorothy slaps him on the nose.  Of course, then the Cowardly Lion starts crying and saying, "Is my nose bleeding?  What'd you have to do that for?"  One of the greatest movies of all time!  It's the same movie with the "flying monkeys" in it -- these belong to the Wicked Witch and she sends them out to get Dorothy (who's wearing her sister's magic Ruby Slippers).  I could go on and on...somebody stop me!

[Deanne]

Whoo hoo! Only 15 right. I feel much younger now than I did this morning!
