This was a good showing with FOUR participants. You ladies are super. Thank you.

Here we go:

Theresa and Mary were tied for last place. 11 out of 20 each. Not too bad. I have a sneaking suspicion that you girls make up your own words to songs when you listen to the radio. Maybe when I do my "There's a bathroom on the right" commonly misheard lyrics quiz, you will really sparkle. T, if it makes you feel any better, if I had ended the contest at question #4, you would have won.

And the winner is.....

We have two winners!! What? What?

Mary & Abbie both had 15/20 right. Well done. Mary is a mensa member. At least as far as I am concerned. Two weeks in a row with a W. Amazing. Abbie was making an appearance for the first time and has just proven to us all that she is brilliant and fabulous. Me thinks if I did an All Crunk Trivia Thursday, she would spank you all.

Thanks for playing!
