Quiz of the day ....

Thursday, May 22, 2003 by eieio | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

Here's an example to get started.

What's the real name of the symbol on your phone at the bottom right that is commonly referred to as the pound sign?

You leave a thread laying around for five minutes and someone picks it up and takes off with it.

ok.
Question 2 is "life"
Question 7 is "4 / 1 + 9 - 8 = 97"

the rest, I'm completely clueless on. And probably completely wrong on 2&7 too *s*.
