I got your PM and happily oblige.
Since your evening is in the middle of the night for me, and tomorrow is Sunday, and I like to sleep late on Sundays, I will extend the time for the quiz til noon, Sunday, European time zone. That's 6am on Sunday EDT.

Time for the quiz is up.
You can still take the quiz noncompetively if you want. Therefore I didn't post the correct answers here, but in the wards Ceremony thread. http://bettermost.net/forum/index.php/topic,12636.10.html

Hey Jack,

what happened bud? You're way too late to compete with the others in the quiz. The awards ceremony has already been held.
But don't fret about it. I'm sure I'll find another prize ......... somewhere around ...... anywhere ...... in this chaos that is my office..... give me a few minutes, then go over to the awards ceremony thread.

Thank you for taking the quiz, friend  :D!

Hey Chrissi,

Actually I got a little confused about the time  :'( but I am so glad you are going to give me a prize anyway  :) And, seriously, guess what I was doing last night and this morning??????? I actually was doing research for the quiz by watching Brokeback again as well as reading the book again. I thought I knew a lot about both, but your quiz even taught me more and you got some more tears out too  ;) I enjoyed taking it. I was supposed to be working on my class, but this was so much more interesting even if I was late. Please have more.

Jack
