18 !
I missed
"Good Night David"
"Bob Dylan advised us never to trust anyone..." Never was a fan of Dylan cuz he couldn't sing. I did become a fan when he was in the Traveling Wilbury's.

Funny, we were just talking about the QB that did a panty hose commercial and my son and friends had no idea :D :o

Thanks, Shelba! Except I'm afraid that one of the reasons why I can't remember any really important stuff is because my head is filled with all this old crap...:p :p :p

Congrats, Marianne. You are a better woman than I. I can't remember important stuff or old crap so take a bow. My eyesight ain't what it used to be either but that's not such a bad thing since I look better in the mirror these days. Now if only everybody else had bad eyesight too, I'd be looking mighty fine. :D If you can relate to the attachments below, you are no longer middle aged.

WOOHOO! Marianne! 20/20! What a memory....or something....:p

Oh that mailbox thing is hilarious! The chart I would have to redo to reflect much more eating and much less sleeping tho....probably would be a good idea to enlarge the portion of looking for what I just had, too. :D:D

Hugs,

Congrats Marianne, 20/20- ! I only got 15, but I think that comes down to a mis-spent youth of watching too much TV! (Even tho some of the folks at work would be hard pressed to answer some of these :))
Thanks Glynda

I only got 14 - but I think that comes from growing up in the wrong place, not the wrong time. I didn't know the TV ones but got 100% of the music ones so my youth was pretty much as misspent as anyone else's.

Anyway, my longterm memory is better than my sh.......

What was I talking about?????:p
