Before getting to the answers, here are the names of the 1st, 2nd, and 3rd place finishers this week:
1st place- Jon: 35 pts
2nd place- Annie: 28 pts
3rd place- Teresa: 26 pts
Congratulations to those who made it to the podium and thanks to everyone who played. Because this quiz turned out to be a bitch, extra props to those of you who still dove into the shark infested waters. I guess the old adage "out of sight, out of mind" is true to a certain extent. I'll try to take it a little easier on you guys next week. :-)
