Today’s Lunchtime Quiz at mental_floss will tell how well you really know your American history. Who was president at the time these events occurred? Not easy! I scored 77%, but that’s only because I’m old enough to remember the events as they happened! Link

I did not read this or anything posted today… The blue links, titles etc. are so harsh it makes the blog near unreadable

Jonathan Coulton helped me with one question:

@SenorMysterioso – for some reason, our css file was deleted at the server. It should be fixed now.

92% — only missed the one about when the New York Times started. (Now if they had asked who will be/is Prez when it FOLDS…)
