I guess I don\'t feel so bad about missing 5 of the questions, now, Mobley. Thanks, I feel much better. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Damn SRH, what a brainiac! So you\'re sexy, a readhead and a genius. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/shocked.gif Be still my heart. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/blush.gif Do you have any superpowers, too? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif [chuckle, chuckle]Sorry, I was just envisioning you in a spandex superhero outfit w/ a big SRH across the front and on your cape. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif

Btw, at least I got #4 and #22 correct. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif

Not a brainiac, just a vat of useless trivia. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif I like to look at things when I get bored. /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/crazy.gif

I know! This must prove that women are more observant than men! /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/grin.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/laugh.gif /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/tongue.gif (Well, except when it comes to food cans and Snow White movies.... /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/wink.gif )

Elana? DVK? Back me up here, ladies!
