Before I try to answer these questions, I need to know what the prize is. Do I get to be a citizen if I get them all right?
ReplyDeleteI'm struggling to read past that building. The most phallic? Really? Please don't take this the wrong way, but surely you can do better than that?
@Adullamite - Your answer to #8 is better than mine was, so your answer is now going to be the correct answer for that one. You got a couple others right, but you got the post title wrong, so that probably nullifies Lincoln and Russia. I knew you couldn't get 4 right. You couldn't even get 4 right about Scotland. :)
ReplyDelete@A. - Me? I didn't build it or vote for it. Yes, I can do much better. :)
Yes, you get to be a citizen if you get them all right. Actually, I thought you already were a citizen. Of something.
