wagering a lock of reno's hair vs a lock of juror's

 

[Matty]

Under 106.5, over 65.

 

[Mudcat]

Ooh, I'm going to do that. No studying. I bet I'll get over 106.5.

As for MrX, I'll say under. Not that I think I know more science than MrX but he has said things in the past to indicate he his not quite the pointless receptacle of useless knowledge that I am.

I have no idea whether or not to be insulted.

2 oz Blended Whiskey

4 oz Ginger Ale

.....add lemon and cherry to girl it up.

[Saulty]

[reno cool]

No insult intended.

Actually, I was getting my wires crossed. I was remembering you doing fairly poorly at some test - so that's what I was reacting to - but on deeper thought, what I was remembering was the facial recognition thing which really wouldn't relate to this at all.

So I humbly apologize. I have no idea how you would do on this.

There is a good chance I am over-estimating my own abilities. 107 out of 118 is pretty high; there are some obscure elements. The more I think about it, the more I am betting under on myself.

Only one way to find out - I'm going to go for it . . .

 

[reno cool]

ooh, Muddy's results will influence the line.

 

[Saulty]

I took the test cause I was bored. I found 28 and time run out. It's much harder than you think. Half of the names you never heard before in your life.

 

[Mudcat]

Yeah I vastly over-estimated myself there. This is pretty hard with no studying. I only got 78 out of 118 - and there aren't many that I missed that I feel particularly bad about. There are a handful of fairly well-known ones that I gapped on, but when you're just sitting there having to pull everything out of your ass . . .

Just plain tuff.

 

[Herman]

I only got like 10
