Nearly nipped me at the gun. Thought that was a good, safe guess. Good game, Gunpowder.

I'm somewhat glad to see just how many misses there were on most of the questions. I thought it was a tough set of Qs, and I guess I was right.

GG Cerrano!

Some day we need to do a full-disclosure version of the game where you list every answer you know and highlight your pick. I want a way to quantify just how much my relative stupidity and consequent lack of options helps me out.

howard · Post by **howard** » Fri Sep 23, 2016 9:45 pm

well, a Scandinavian firm that is owned by the American (multinational) major record companies. I bet they don't pay taxes here, though.

I'm sure President Clinton will clean up these multi-national corporate excesses to fund the progressive policies that the socialist stole from her and tried to sell to us as his own.
