Fair enough. The fact that you're sure that 40% of people look in the medicine cabinet struck me as odd, only reason I had to ask.

I guess I only put that as for sure because I remember hearing something to that effect sometime. However, I do like your answers, they require too much thought for me though.

Good quiz, RYou, but I challenge the answer to #1. I heard not so long ago that theme music was pretty much gone from TV shows--for it cuts into advertisement time.

#2 is unbelievable to me. How many people on these boards live within 50 miles of their birthplace? I don't.

It might be true worldwide, but I'd doubt that it is true in the US.
I'm 500 miles away.

Bonnie, do your kids live within 50 miles of their birthplaces?

Ah, good point. I was thinking only of adults.

Kids? What kids? My 20 year old is living in California and my 16 year old is in Baltimore right now! (just visiting)

My parents live in their birthplace, but only one out of 6 kids live within 50 miles of their birthplace. Luckily for the rest of us, he's less than a mile away from them.
