I'll be saving the next few poopy diapers and express shipping them to your door for your smelling pleasure.

A poor choice considering the video used...
[/quote]
And here I thought I was being clever (granted, a likely frequent conceit). You see, it's a New Order video...but from [i]2001[/i]...with kids that aren't New Order...and with a drum kit that says The Killers. So if someone were to guess wrongly, I could chime in and tell the clever story of how The Killers go their name. Surely a brilliant choice???

I knew the answer to that one just from the drum kit ...

Thanks so much for all your effort Blir. And I think 2001's New Order pick was quite brilliant. I missed that one. [;)]

As did I. I am ashamed to admit that my total was only 122 which was below the average. I got creamed from 1999 onwards but did get British Sea Power. I didn't want to disappoint Blir!

We didn't sell a lot of records, but somehow we left an impression.

Not that it changes anything, I'll take my shameful bronze, but to be annoyingly nitpicky, why did I get 146 points rather than 147?

I hate the color blue.

And "The Twist" should really have been "Let's Twist Again" if we're being really really technical...as the East German judge demands that I be.

Simpsons reference, I've been known to toss them out occasionally.

"People, people, please! You're forgetting what the Olympics are all about: giving out medals of beautiful gold, so-so silver and shameful bronze."

That damn Editors song just played on WOXY, which I frequently listen to at work. I knew I'd hear it soon after the quiz.
