A bit tougher baby boomer test

[beatbyrd]

Hi,

I put one together that is a bit more challenging for the old coots here. I had to stop at 15 questions, because I got tired and my head started hurting. These are all just based on my memory, so there might be an error, but I hope not. You can PM for answers or just use a search engine. The points mean nothing. I apologize to anyone born after the mid 50's. Tom

Good one, Tom! You stumped me on two of them.

[fatcat]

Likewise.

OK, this test was a bit more difficult, but I think I got 'em all...

Well, at least parts of my memory still work... at times anyway...

All too easy, especially on a guitar forum...

His battle cry:

I seem to recall two of 'em, at least for his alter-ego...

[jimk]

I only remember one battle-cry. And I won't give it up just now.

OK, I'll add yet another extra credit question based on Quick Draw. What was the name of the blood hound character that occasionally appeared and what was his favorite reward? Super extra credit for remembering what he did when he received it...

[jingle_jangle]

I was thinking, "make it tougher!"...

...then you came up with that bloodhound thing...I remember his ecstatic transports, but not what they were over.

What the hay language is that overdubbed in??

[jingle_jangle]

Mumbly Portuguese.

I apologize to anyone born after the mid 50's. Tom

Tom, ometimes I WISH I wasn't old enough to know all the answers in you test!

I apologize to anyone born after the mid 50's. Tom

Tom, sometimes I WISH I wasn't old enough to know all the answers in your test!

I'm with you, Joey. I have a new decade starting in a few weeks. Bob Dylan would doubly not trust me. Then again, there are so many things that I was around to experience, and I wouldn't want to give those up. I really enjoyed the 1960's and was old enough to appreciate most of what was happening back then. If science had a way to somehow return my body to its 23 year old condition, I'd do it in a flash, unless it meant I'd have to give up all of the memories and experiences of my true age. That would be a deal breaker for me. Can I get a "Whoa FOSSIL!" from anyone? Tom

[kiramdear]

Does Bob not trust himself now?
