Well, I beat MsMaryPas by 2 whole seconds today! I hope my score
stands, I could use another win this month.

My usual spot, 10/10 taking all day.
Can someone with a login submit a correction? The question "How
many ounces in a pound?" with possible answers including 12 and
16 is insufficiently precise.
There are 16 avoirdupois ounces in an avoirdupois pound all
right, but there are also 12 troy ounces in a troy pound.

There is a Star Trek question that was written before someone
developed Discovery. Of course the question is which one of
these is not a spin off of Star Trek. Possible answers include
The Next Generation, Voyager, Enterprise and (of course)
Discovery. Before I ever had this question myself, my coworker
had it and told me, because, as written, there is no wrong
answer there.
Sometimes there is a link to "Submit a correction" on the answer
page. I made a vow to submit corrections to math questions with
"Math is not trivia, math is math." I'm sure they'll get sick of
me in no time. :-)

Yeah, there was a "submit correction" link, but clicking it
demanded I login...

Gah! Never change your answer. Except for the times when I
follow that rule and then chastise myself for not changing my
answer. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Thank you all for inviting me to play this game with you. In
today's quiz, number 8, the song Shop Around was co-written by
Berry Gordy, not Barry Gordy. (Yes, I know that wasn't the
question.) Berry Gordy is the founder of the Motown record
label, as well as a songwriter, producer, and film and tv
producer.

Good info. And it should be a question.
I've seen some posts that suggest that we don't all have the
same quiz, and your comment confirms it. I didn't have any
Motown (or any song) question today.

One my wrong answers was to the question about what ot means
when your palm itches. I've heard it 2 different ways, you're
about to come into some money OR you're about to meet a new
friend.
Both were options as answers. Guess which one is "correct"?
