OK. The hot potato was a brainless excercise. This is not! We have 11 questions from an IQ test. I have all the correct answers, but in some cases I'm not even sure why they are correct. I'm trusting the answers that i've got here. Your job is to answer all 11 questions. Here are the details.....
-Your post must contain answers to all 11 questions to win
-All 11 answers must be correct, or you will not win
-If you do not get all 11 answers correct, I will not tell you which ones you got incorrectly, I'll just tell you that you did not win
-The deadline is 7 PM on Sunday Night. If no one has correctly answered all 11 questions by then, then whoever has the post with the most correct answers wins. If there is a tie, then whoever posted first wins. (This means you should leave up your answers ever if you have an incorrect post despite the fact that other players may use them for themselves).
-any edited posts will be considered invalid
UDC and I will try hard to be around as much as possible to let you guys know if you've won or not. If you guys aren't sure, just proceed as if the game hasn't been won yet. OK....get to work!

You all have your work cut out for you. Most of them are fairly easy. Two are rather tough.

Somebody out there has to know the ones I'm missing....

Unless I counted wrong -- or I just plain don't know what I'm talking about (which is likely) -- I only need to get one right, and then I can find the rest by process of elimination.
