Since my birthday is pretty much tomorrow, I decided that was a good excuse to make a quiz about myself and see if you, my internet people, would answer them. Whoever wins gets the internet equivalent of a cookie!
There are ten questions, with a possible total of 12 points. Answer in the comment section--I'm going to hide the answers until Saturday or so to keep people from metaphorically peeking at their neighbors' papers.
Facts and Figures
1. How old will I be on Thursday?
2. I have more t-shirts of this color than any other. By a whole lot. What is this color?
Bonus: how many of this color of t-shirt do I have? (The person or people to guess the closest gets the point.)
3. What was my final dollar amount when I was on Jeopardy!?
4. I own the same number of seasons of Friends as seasons of South Park on DVD. What is that number?
5. Take the number after the name of my favorite King of England
Multiply by the order number of my favorite US President
Subtract the number after the name of my favorite basketball player
What number do you get?
Bonus: divide it by the number of my favorite Napoleon!
Opinions
In my opinion, what is the best:
6. Star Wars movie?
7. Harry Potter book? (I will accept ordinal answers, e.g. “the eighth one.” Don’t say “the eighth one,” though. Just a tip for the non-Harry Potter fans out there.)
8. Member of Monty Python?
9. Sport involving rackets?
10. Reality tv show?

7. Harry Potter and the Prisonder of Azkaban
8. Terry Gilliam (I had to look up the members then guess, I know nothing about Monty Python!)
9. Badminton
10. Is South Park reality?? I'll go with Project Runway.
Happy Birthday tomorrow! I'll be celebrating by taking my last final of vet school.

Facts and Figures
1. 13 years old, born in 1983 :)
2. maroon
2a. a baker's dozen
3. 0 in dollars, $100000 in value of humor
4. seven seasons. You can do better.
5. H7xAdams2=14-AcieLaw1=13, which is not evenly divisible by three so I'm assuming you love Nappy-One, despite his Russian horse-killing and disastrous endeavors into Spain and Haiti. And I think you've mentioned this to me, because I remember telling you about the horses.
6. II of the Original trilogy, the Empire Strikes Back
7. Fifth: Order of the Phoenix. And yes you're going to go mad in July when you see it on the big screen.
8. Limb: Michael Palin. Because you and I talked about him once. No WAIT YOU LIKE ERIC IDLE AND YOU'RE CRAZY FOR IT!! ERIC IDLE made us fight!
9. Tennis. Because I doubt it's Lacrosse. Except I want it to be lacrosse.
10. Who Wants to Sleep With William Daniels? (New on Fox) Because I'm not falling for the idea that American Idol is your favorite.
Felicitous Celebrations!!

I saw you on Jeopardy, and found you here. You're awesome. Have a Happy Birthday. And just so you know, I'm not a stalker (regardless of what the courts say). Also, I'll take your quiz once I set my browser to accept cookies, just in case I win!
1. 24
2. Maroon, 12
3. Negative 200
4. 05
5. 7*33-1=39, 19.5
6. Umm, the original second one, so I think that makes it the 5th one. This is really just a guess.
7. 3rd one, again complete guess
8. John Cleese
9. Badminton
10. America's next top model (I really don't understand this)
1)22
2)Maroon (12)
3)1600

6) Episode 3
7) the 5th one (my favorite. has to be everyone's, right?......... wait I've never read them)
8) I'm going to guess wildly on this one. Either Eric Idle or john Cleese. By the way Eric Idle is freaking hilarious.....
9)Badminton
10) trick Question....... no one really likes reality Television.... people just watch it cause its on
Wow that was a lot of guessing
-Token
1. 24
2. Maroon (14?)
3. $0
4. 6
5. 7+1=8; 8x2 = 16, 16-4=12 --> 12
Bonus attempt: 12/3 = 4
I have no first had knowledge of your favorite Napoleon but I guessed the third because you seem to love the underdog (aka lesser famous of persons with the same name). It just seemed to obvious to go with the original.
6. Episode I...j/k j/k I at least know you better that than. How about The Empire Strikes Back?
7. This one is hard for me because I am biased. I will go with Chamber of Secrets because it is my favorite as so I can not imagine it not being everyone else's favorite as well.
8. John Cleese
9. Badminton
10. I am torn between America's Next Top Model and Project Runway but I have decided to go with Project Runaway despite my love of the word "Fierce."

rachel, here are my answers. I hope I win! (although I probably couldn't expect to do better than, say, your parents.)
1. 24! (that was easy.)
2. purple? (light purple, specifically.) and I'm going to guess seven, one for every day of the week.
3. I can't believe I don't know this. I'm so ashamed. I think it's maybe...negative one thousand dollars?
4. seven?
5. dammit, I'm not sure if your favorite president is harry truman or john adams. I'm going with Johnny. So, seven times two minus three is...um, eleven.
divided by two? is five and a half? should I be bothered that that's not a whole number?
6. Return of the Jedi
7. fourth one?
8. John Clese?
9. Badminton!
10. Project Runway!
