Frog-lover said...

Guessed 4 of them correct
Knew 3 of them

Am I the youngest one here?

AvengingAngel said...

SER, have I told you lately how much I dislike you? lol

Anonymous said...

Very good KK. What was Horton doing when he said that?

OrbsCorbs said...

I knew the first 20 and guessed Horton (by process of elimination - I wasn't a Dr. Seuss fan), but I have no idea what Horton was doing.

Frog-lover, yup, I think you're the youngest, and thus the least likely to know these, while I'm amongst the oldest.

SER said...

Why Not? said...

Got 14 right.. the Bob Dylan one, I'm kicking myself over though.. I dont know why I said 40.. I knew it was 30.. I guess I'm just sour cause I'm soon turning 30..
