And it’s the first thing that comes to mind for anyone who ever watched _White Men Can’t Jump_.

Don’t y’all remember White Men Don’t Jump? The girlfriend was studying for Jeopardy, and one of the categories was “Foods that start with Q.”

i tried to go through the list in my head. i could only remember quiche (which i had already thought of before thinking of WMCJ), and quohog. it took me about 3 family guy seasons to realize that “ko-hog” was the same as “kwog”.

Quesadilla and quesadillas should be counted together.

#2! Woot! (looks like **Labtrash** and I shoujld be sharing #2)

I put Wisconsin instead of Washington, other than that I got all the top answers.

Thanks for the feud, Rebo!

Rock on: top of the heap! If you turn the entire list around, that is. Isn’t this like golf, lowest score wins?

Oof. Not a good showing. Someone’s gotta bring up the rear, though; I might as well take my turn.

I pretty much sucked on this feud. And I did feel pretty good about answers. FTR, I did think of Madonna for a one name musician, but i think of musicians as people who are known for playing an instrument.

Guess that is why I was near the bottom of the standings.

Why, Baby Jesus, did I change my answer drom 40 to 35? And why were **ArchiveGuy** and I the only ones [del]dumb[/del] awesome enough to answer Seychelles? Thank you for your guidance. Amen.

It doesn’t affect me personally (except that it’ll probably knock my already low standing further down) but shouldn’t quesadilla and quesadillas count as the same answer on #4?
