I missed you guys (gal). I was real busy and did not get a chance to take a couple of quizzes last week. Glad to be back!
I forgot the song in # 10 which is "Shout"
malc,
i picked up the wrong draft on question #4 - it should have included "Lost In Space." pjazz knew the answer even without that part of the clue, which totally amazes me (good job pjazz and good to have you back)...
beck,
i like your "can't remember" the best! i once used that on a geometry test in high school, to no avail i might add...
Editor, I knew because I heard it somewhere along the line from some trivia quiz that Billy Mumy was associated with America and it stuck.
