Hi Jonno, the answer to question number two is incorrect. The correct answer is ... everybody has only one actual birthday, all the rest are just celebrations.

Hey marko, I missed 2, but I misread one so I really missed 1 and partly missed the other. That;s called a technicality, LOL.
Not too bad, I'm surprised I have power, the hurricane is now a tropical storm, but it's still moving close to me. They usually don't get this high up. :o

Thank you Jim, you are right. It was an email from a friend, and I saw the quiz several years ago and didn't read it in depth.
That is two misses this week, so I guess three means a stint in the naughty corner........ :crazy:
