Thanks Mannie I miss Edyta this season after she got elminated first.
A little off subject isn't everyone enjoying the plotical ads running every 2 1/2 seconds. Our Tax dollars at work although if is wasn't for these ads many TV station would have to shut down and lay off many people. Most local stations make nearly half there yearly budgets on Politcal ads, I got that from some one who works for a local ABC affialite.

Joey - what I enjoy most about the political ads is the negative ones with lifted sound bites made to make it seem a candidate said something they didn't. Don't you love that? I don't think we should allow politicians AKA liars, to run anything.
Plus I love this financial bail out that gave AIG 60 or 70 billions of dollars and they took everyone on vacation and then asked for more money! Bend over U.S.

Hey everyone! Don’t feel bad if you don’t know some of those… I think I got less than half right. I took it online and didn’t want to be the only one out of the loop!!!
Joey got all his answers right except for 24.
Don’t fret John, I didn’t know many of them. I figured you’d get the Battlestar Galactica one right though.
Marci got all hers right.
Indy got them right except for 9, 18, 19 and 22.
April got all them right except for 26.
Furley got a positive for his negotiating skills but a negative for not sharing his popcorn, so I guess that evens him out… Well, maybe a double negative for the popcorn thing!
Tana got them right except for 1.
Philly would be in the same boat as Furley except he didn’t munch on popcorn in front of me, so I’ll give him a positive…
That’s true Joey but just think, we only have another month to avoid commercials…
Cindy tried them all!!! She got them all right except for 1, 3, 5, 6, 11, 13, 17, 19, 21, 22, 23, 25 and half of 26.
