thE QuiZ tHAt GoeS PoP

The blog is beginning to grow in readership and that is thanks to you so THANK YOU for subscribing and for following us.

I want to start implementing some new ideas for how to make the blog better. That's always possible! So I thought that we would veer away from the serious, thought provoking topics and just have a little fun today.

Who's game for a pop quiz?

I am going to give you seven different questions with five choices each. The options consist of three false statements and two true statements. See if you can find them. I will answer the questions in the comments if no one guesses all five.

If you like this, perhaps we can make this a regular thing or mix it up for some light-hearted fun. Thoughts? Let's jump in.
