I got 22 correct, so I guess I'm above average.

21 out of 25 which, considering some questions were very US-centric, wasn't too bad (I even got the number of states right first go). And in Europe, most cars have four nuts on each wheel (and one behind the steering wheel!). Got some amusing options since apparently the template insisted on there being a choice of three answers.... I did unmute the Mac for a moment or two and decided the "music" was aimed at distracting the "quizzee" biggrin.gif

I've just had to look at Wikipedia to find out how many countries make up the European Union   whistling.gif  the answer is 27; our offshore islands of Jersey, Guernsey and the Isle of Man are excluded.

23 right; but I really don't look at matchbooks and Campbell's Soup cans! Thinking.gif

Lots of high score claims! "Where's the meat?" laughhard.gif I actually got 27 correct, but I figured everyone would think I'd faked the image... rolleyes.gif I think it would be better if there had been a count down timer for each question... diablo.gif

Meat is now to be found in my original post, but wouldn't chicken be healthier?

I think that all TS members are like the residents of Lake Wobegon (on the PBS radio show Prairie Home Companion), "the little town that time forgot and the decades cannot improve... where the women are strong, the men are good looking, and all the children are above average".

I'm too old and my brain is too rattled to take part in these 'quizzes'.
