Thanks Gene
16/20 and I’m 29, thanks mom and dad for teaching me stuff from way back when 😉
20/20 without breaking a sweat.
And I never read Pogo–didn’t get the newspaper when we were kids, and didn’t like it (Pogo) when I saw it. Still, the “We have met the enemy” line is an iconic one from the Nixon administration.
13/20 and I’m 23. I actually expected to do better lol.
Great quiz.
I got one wrong. The Bob Dylan over 30 question. I am 37 which means that I grew up watching way too much crappy tv. I knew it would come in handy one day.
MISSED 13…THOUGHT it was a trick to make me think of Dippity Doo…besides, I’m A Dapper Dan Man!”
