    7/10. It should have been 8 out of 10 but I thought they were being tricky.

    I got 3, 6, and 9 wrong. 6 is the one I over-thought. I over-though number 9, too, but my next guess would have been wrong, too. I didn't realize that Gibraltar was sovereign.

    I won my 8th grade Geography Bee, and my stupid ****ing teacher screwed up the paperwork. So much for being crowned king of the nerds for a day.

    8 of 10 and I was kicking myself for the other two, because I realized I knew the answer at one point but had forgotten it.

    Bingo. My brother in law lived there and worked with JHI but I spaced it.

    And for #1, I used to do the worldwide network for a company with an office over there and had been there on business. It was 10 years ago and the names had moved to the back of my mind.

    6/10 for today's
    9/10 for yesterday's (with 2 lucky guesses)

    It is pretty tough... especially considering 4th-8th graders are competing.

    9/10 easy. I messed up on #7 but my answer is technically still correct...

    10/10 on yesterday's with one lucky guess on #10.

    Oh and don't ever play Trivial Pursuit against me.

    damn it...i got 9/10...and I got the 10th one wrong cause i spelt oklahoma too quick and it marked it incorrect.

    i guess watching the history, discovery, and national geographic channels does pay off:)
