    Here's a fun 80's music quiz I stumbled upon if you've got some time to kill ... Score: 110.5 for me.  

    No cheating, now!!

    OUCH!  Only a 47.5!  I'm not much of an 80's fan, though (obviously).

    Darn you Amy for getting "My Name is Luka" stuck in my head!

    Well that's not fair. I got docked 30% because I am a yuppie...  :(

    After factoring that back in... 109.55

    I got 103.  Missed a couple of really easy ones, but I guessed correctly at a couple that I didn't know.

    Well...well...ok. The sand people catched the robots, and drive... and sell 'em in a garage sale - kinda like a garage sale except they're selling robots. And y'know who's gonna buy R2 and the shiny guy? (the shiny guy always worries), Luke's gonna buy those. And Obie Kanobie, is kind of a teacher, he's teaching Luke how learn how to do his little light-up sword. He has to try to block the little pokey ball. He tried to do it without seeing. Obie Kanobie sometimes moves things around, sometimes he disappears. Princess Leia got out of jail and onto the spaceship and they got the big thing that blowed up stuff, and they blowed it up together. It blowed up Princess Leia's planet. But don't talk back to Darth Vader - he'll getcha. It's an exciting movie.

    67.275 for me, but I was born in the 50s, so I thought that wasn't too bad.  Thanks, Amy!

     wow. I was a DJ in the 80's. Pretty good test. Now I'm wondering if I was listening.

    it would be a snap if the testee could hear the tune too.

    Not as good as I thought it would be. 62.5. My favorite was the Bonus question 103. That made me laugh. I got that one right at least. It sucks one of the questions docks you for spelling, but I dont think it would have helped my score anywayStick out tongue.

    BTW, Amy, were you one of those girls that hair-sprayed her bangs stright up in the air?  Pics?

     

    Oh, and why did I have to be a teenager when "baggy" was in? Sad

    Me too!  I always looked forward to the School House Rock songs during Saturday morning cartoons!

    Nope, never sprayed my bangs straight up with AquaNet.  That was a South-side trend.  We called it "Camaro Hair."

    I did have a big rock-star perm, however, and loved me some stirrup pants (note the Brooke Sheilds Eye Brows)

    I've got the lowest score I have seen. 24... I would have done better if I'd turned off the stereo blasting in the room and I should have finished the last half of the test. Couldn't concentrate after misspelling "Jesses' Girl". P.... me off and then got a couple of smart a.. remarks on answers I missed.

    BTW, Killer look Amy.
