Thanks! And thanks for stopping by!
DeleteTwo right today. It would have been three, but I didn't even read the bonus question... my eyes skipped right over.
ReplyDeleteYou can count three. You're scrupulously honest and if you say you would have known it, then you knew it!
DeleteFour right today.
ReplyDeletewoot woot!!! Not at all surprised!
DeleteThree but it's only because it's Monday. I'm sure tomorrow I'll rock!
ReplyDeleteYou rock every day :)
DeleteOnly three. Awesome idea for A-Z.
ReplyDeleteThanks! Looking up the questions has been fun. My family is even into it!
DeleteElizabeth, thank you for making me feel like I was smart, today :) I knew them all but Goddard, but I have heard of him! Woohoo :)
ReplyDeleteYou feel smart because you are smart!
DeleteGodiva-- also very fine chocolate. :) Fun stuff again!
ReplyDeleteMmmm...totally agree!
DeleteNice, Liz. Waaaay fun. Love this theme!
ReplyDeleteThanks Morgan!!
DeleteWoohoo! got them all today! *Fist bump*
ReplyDeleteFist bump collected :)
DeleteThis is my sort of quiz! Four right, but I answered Newton for number one and didn't know the rocket guy.
ReplyDeleteYay!!! Way to go Nick!
DeleteI didn't do too bad. I knew #2, #3, #5, and the bonus.
ReplyDeleteWay to go LD!
DeleteGot all but #4 this time. Just couldn't place the name, but at my age, it's not that uncommon. ;-)
ReplyDeleteHeck, some days I can't remember my kids' names! So I understand.
DeleteI got three right. :)
ReplyDeleteYay!!! Way to go Medeia!!
DeleteI got Galileo, Gandhi and Godiva (probably because of the chocolates) Had to peek at the others. I'm being honest.
ReplyDeleteYou're a good woman. Three is pretty awesome!
DeleteGosh Elizabeth!
ReplyDeleteYay, I know the bonus question! And when she rode naked, side-saddle, folks were yelling, "hooray for our side!"
I shall now go do the same thing to see if I can lower my taxes, or something like that.

The only one I knew was Gutenberg b/c of my Communications background.
