Some of these weren't all that easy for me though. How fun. It did make me put on my thinking cap.
Have a terrific day. :)
I did poorly. I knew # 1, 3, 9, and 10. I guess it's going to be coal for me this year.
lol, now i really feel dumb! that was fun though, even if i only got a couple right...hehehe!
have a great night ann...hugz!
Youch! I only got half of them. They were easy but I'm not good at trivia. I got Boris Karloff, he's one of my favorite old actors. I knew some, I guessed right on some, and others I knew but had forgotten. The ones I missed made it even more fun than the ones I got.
Sandee, yeah, I did throw in a couple of tough ones
Tahtimbo heck no, you got 4 right that deserves something
PJ I guess some of these just seam easy to me because I spent so much time writing them all out and then playing the game several times....lol
Ratty, good job. When I first came up with this game I found out all kinds of things I never knew before.
I like the answer to question no.5. Of course snowman is eating snow flakes, haha!
Crap, I only got like 4 of them. :(
I didn't do so hot. Maybe I'll do better in the next installment!
I didn't get the last one right...I answered with what I always think of and living in england we NEVER bother of dreaming of a white christmas...I think I got six right so not too bad...waiting for more!!!!
I only got the one of the french Santa. No goals here, I was offside! :)
Well, it looks like coal for me. I only got 2. (I still think Yosemite Sam would have been a great name for Rudolph's friend!)
Great idea you clever girl, even if tests DO make me nervous (ha). Always did like that Yukon Cornelius (fun guy :o)
I knew the answers to 3 and 10. The rest was Greek to me. Lot of fun though :)
Hmmm, didn't know most of them. Not so good with the trivia.
We watch "How the Grinch Stole Christmas" every year as a family! We like the newer version too, but the original is still our favorite!
Have a very Merry Christmas!!

Ann I love this. I just wish my kids were still little! Well, no I don't really, you know.
I only got three right.But it sure was fun.Can't wait for the next round. Maybe I should start studying.
I was going to say that Snowmen eat Frosted Flakes!
I only got 2 right - #'s 3 and 10 - I am so NOT a Christmas person...BTW - Who is Yukon Cornelius, where does this character come from?
These are really hard. I only had #3 and #9 right off the top of my head.
I only got 3 and they were the easiest ones, see told you I was horrible at trivia.
I only got 4 without looking anything up. Ouch. I think I'll have to do my own so that I regain my sense of control!
I only got 4 of them without looking anything up. Ouch. I may have to do one of my own to retain my sense of control.
