[/QUOTE]

Thanks for catching the two John’s, :smack: but I typed it twice, not there were 12 points split between 2 answers. I would post the actual score sheet, but tomorrow is trash day and I am not digging though the garbage to scan it. 😃

The first ranking is correct.

Hot damn! I never do this well at this type of game.  
I’ve already messed up my chances at part VIII.

I’ve been told my questions weren’t in the true spirit of Family Feud, so I’ll take the credit/blame for VIII.

Well, I can tell there have been more than fifty posts, but I’ve dutifully not read them. Let’s see how I do anyway.

1. Pinto

2. Oranges

3. December

4. Genesis (I have no idea about factual correctness, but I’m just going for popularity of response, right?)

5. Babe Ruth

6. Uh… tequila.

7. American Pie

8. Bridge

9. If it’s anything other than Daffy Duck, I’ll eat my hat

10. 40

ETA: Well, I’m not sure how to score myself. Pinto was a weird one, certainly; I somehow completely blanked out on alternatives. I also clearly blanked out with tequila. Oranges and December I’m surprised did so poorly. So I guess I got 6 right on target. At least I don’t have to eat my hat.

For those who haven’t gotten in on it yet, [Family Feud VIII](http://boards.straightdope.com/sdmb/showthread.php?t=448059) is still on! I need **7** more entries.

I’m also accepting questions in my **email** (not PM) for Family Feud IX.
