Thanks, **Rebo** and **brownie** , I’d been hoping we’d get a mythology based one! ---

They both got 9/10 top answers, and both answered #8 wrong, with the same wrong answer. Twins!! Perfect score was 555.11. I didn’t know I had to be specific as to which stables eta - ah! you meant question # 7 ---

On 10, aren’t “Heroes” and “We Can Be Heroes” the same song? I was thinking about the Bowie song anyway. ---

Holy cow…I saw all the Vishnu’s and didn’t think Shiva had a prayer (pardon the pun 🙂 )… ---

38th? awwwww… poop. ☹ I’m beginning to think that my very first Feud was a fluke of the highest order. (I actually won!) Despite my lame scores, this is fun! Keep it up **Dolores**! And thanks for the good idea, **brownie55**! You’re doing a heckuva job! 😉 ---

Squished the Worm and Otak again. Squishing worms gives you a little shudder when you think of it . Start over…I stepped on a Worm and Otak again. Otak is glad we stopped at 49, if 50 had gotten he would have been 48th. The Worm I understand. In Iceland they are a little behind. He is waiting to watch the new" I Love Lucy" tonight. But Otak. ---

I can’t believe nobody else thought of the Chimera. Middle of the pack, as usual. Oh, well, at least I’m consistent. ---

Yeah! A great episode tonight, but I won’t bother you with the details. I really need to come up with a masterplan for these Feuds. I suck, but at least I suck consistently (which has to count for something). Bah, I’ll just sit here in the corner and eat my squishy pie.
