4. I'm surprised.

I was completely hopeless on the sports questions and space questions, but I got 82 percent total. I guess it's all those birth names and would-be assassins that put me over the top. Oh, and I knew all the feminist authors. :shrug:

7. I got 60%, but with a lot of guesses

I also love trivia so some of them were really educated guesses (I may have heard it somewhere sometime)

[Totally Committed]
