Ta, J.

[AMETHYST]

Bump, it's that time of year again!

Anyone want to give it a go? ...

[Cleo_Serapis]

[JLY]

Lori,
I scanned the list and realized I have forgotten more than I have remembered. This is a daunting task and I don't think my score will be very high.
JLY

[Cleo_Serapis]

I agree! We're going to do "holiday trivia" at work next week, so I forwarded this list to the person putting it together yesterday morning. I think they are planning on getting some holiday movie dvds as the prizes. Peter did FAR BETTER than I on the Christmas song questions, guess I don't know the words as much as I thought I did.

Enjoy!
