Another Weekly Quiz

[Bicycle Bill]

7/12 and 310 SweeTarts.
I could have probably done a little better but I didn't have a lot of time to think over a couple of them.  I knew I had to select quickly to try to come even close to LJ's high-water mark.

-"BB"-

[Guinevere]

10/12, 481 glittery rockettes boycotting the inauguration

[Lord Jim]

Slate Quiz 1.13.17

I knew it would be a let down after last week:

8/12 for 356 hot coppa slices...

[Bicycle Bill]

5/12 and 218 pepperoni slices.

-"BB"-

[MajGenl.Meade]

1 and fort-six pastilles

[BoSoxGal]

7/12
& a golden shower of 312 gold foil-wrapped Moscow Ritz Carlton pillow chocolates.

[Guinevere]

9/12 and 428 Presidential Medals of Freedom (with distinction) for Joe Biden.

9/12 for me, too...but moving at a more leisurely pace than Guin got me only 360 golden chickpeas.

[Lord Jim]

Started out strong (five in a row) but faded in the stretch.

-"BB"-

[Joe Guy]

5/12 and 211 fender washers.

[BoSoxGal]

9/12
408 doohickeys

[MGMcAnick]

I got half of them and 253. Far better than last week.

[Econoline]

9/12 gets me 374 pussyhats.



P.S. - I loved their explanation (in the intro to the quiz) of the demise of the Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Circus: "First, the circus stopped using elephants in its performances, which caused a drop in ticket sales. Then, all the clowns left to join the Trump administration."

That's almost as good as the old joke about why Republicans suffer from constipation.
It's because their assholes are all in Washington.

[Big RR]

10/12, 372 tiny size condoms

[Lord Jim]

Slate Quiz 1.27.17

A most sucky 6/12 for 261 stale Pringles...

Alternative facts are not acceptable when answering the Slate News Quiz, even though it would make writing questions a snap since every answer is correct. For example: "Who is the 45th President of the US? a. Donald J Trump, b. Captain Underpants, c. Adolf Hitler, d. Yertle the Turtle."

[MajGenl.Meade]

Ha! 6 of 12 for 272 slipped discs

[Joe Guy]

7/12 for 307 Nike golf ball markers
