Let’s start the New Year off with a bang of a quiz that everyone should pass with flying colors. Over the holidays, the lovely Trish whispered in my ear that my quizzes got to be a little too difficult. Well, let’s make a change for just this once and give everyone a chance to answer the entire list of questions correctly!

20. It is a little known fact that many years ago while a Navy Seal, Jim Lawson was on the coast of Argentina performing a top secret mission to remove the sitting president, Eduardo Al Pacino. While offshore of Buenos Aires, Jim was scuba diving at 23:00 hours in the midst of the murky Rio de la Plata, just off of the Atlantic Ocean. While waiting for his signal to kidnap Pacino he was suddenly struck at the top of his head by a iceberg that was about 3,000 miles off course from it’s natural habitat. Lawson was in a coma for more than two years and when he finally came to at Bethesda Naval Hospital the only scar he carried with him was a 4”x4” spot atop of his skull which no longer grows hair. (I will also accept that Jim has a bald spot.
