Slate Quiz 11.18.16

8/12 for 323 Lady Liberty silver dollars...

Not a great score, but good enough to beat the average reader and a tech writer...(but then what can a tech nerd be expected to know about the news)

About half successful guesses...very gossip and trivia oriented quiz this week

I've never had such a bad week. Maybe I wasn't awake enough. The only reason I got the Joey Logano question right was the previously posted spoiler. Not to brag, obviously, but I got 4/12 and 164 cow chips.
