Answers
Question 1. The correct answer is C but if you picked A give yourself 5 points because that was in the news a lot. We would like to add that in a sane world, someone would have taken this kid to the Psych Ward when he showed up with the noose around his neck. Actually, it's not too late.
Question 2. The correct answer is E all of the above and again give yourself 5 points if you picked any of the others as each answer was correct on its own.
Question 3. The correct answer is F and again give yourself 5 points if you picked any of the other answers as they were all true on their own. And, while the answer E is true, we know that wasn't in the news. But since we go where the Mass Hysteria fears to tread, we even got the actual quote which was "Tough bleep bitches, I spent it." We cleaned it up a little, as this is a family channel.
Question 4. The correct answer is C but give yourself 10 points if you picked D as the two of them spent a lot of time together in planes, on that Island and in the White House, so something probably happened. And, when we say Billy Bob's girlfriend we don't mean an actual relationship. A hot five minutes somewhere, counts.
If you got a 100 Congratulations! You're a Winner! Sorry, we have nothing to send you what with all the Chain Supply Thing /a' Ma Jig, and all the inflation and the Kung Flu. But hey, you won. If you got anything less than a 80, seek help. Unlike our other quizzes, this one was easy.
