9 of 10. The one device looked very much like an inclinometer on a ship.
ReplyDeleteSame here. My one wrong answer.
Delete7 of 10. Amazing what has been invented. When taking the "patent" course work, it was so much fun wandering through all of the thousands of odd ball concepts that creative minds have come up with, including the "Big Mac."
ReplyDeleteI should have paid more attention. That one thing looked like one of those piano timers (I don't know what they are called); so 9 of 10.
ReplyDeleteJon,
DeleteYou're referring to a metronome.
I tried to zoom in on my phone to make sure it wasn't a metronome, but my pastor was starting to get suspicious. :)
DeleteEd,
DeleteTsk, tsk.
9 out of 10. Imagine calling an inclinometer a thermometer.
ReplyDeleteNot so good - 7 out of 10. That first one was the doozey. Interesting & fun.
ReplyDeleteBaysider,
DeleteFunny thing about that first one: I got it right away. Then again, considering the situation in this household...not a surprise.
Glad that you enjoyed the quiz. Too much politics, and we all overdose!
Couldn't find the quiz. All I got when I clicked was an ADVERTISEMENT for Smithsonian! Phooey!!!
ReplyDeleteAs for the sketch at the head of the post, it looks to me like a CLOCK made to look like a BOMB by some psychotic Islamic Mischief Maker. };-)>
FT,
DeleteIf all you see is an advertisement, look for the arrow that indicates "continue to site."
9 of 10.
ReplyDeleteMissed the mouse of all things.
8 of 10.
ReplyDelete7 out of 10
ReplyDeleteWh at IS the right answer for the First One, and the one that looks sort of like a metronome?
FT,
DeleteNumber 1 = a snow board for disabled people.
The one that looks like a metronome was a device for measuring temperature.
Glad that you were able to access the quiz, FT!
great one AOW! Happy Columbus DAY! booyah! xoxoxo
ReplyDelete9 of 10 Surprised myself although a couple were guesses. Anyway I never saw a diaper wrap that looked like a corset
