21. I missed #s 4 (5 out of 6, though), 7 (I was off by 1), 11, and 21 (thought it was the Joker).
I take issue with question #10, though. The coriolis effect (which is what they are talking about) is such a weak force that it can easily be overcome in any given drain. Ergo, it can go either direction.
Ehh. 19. Couldn't remember: - 3 of the 6 Campbell soup colors - # of matches (I thought it was 30, but it should have occurred to me that it would equal the # of cigarettes in a pack) - The No-Smoking slash (I ignore them anyway) - I thought there were six lug-nuts on a tire. - Couldn't remember Bashful. Cause I ain't. - Thought the merry-go-round went Clockwise as well.
For the matches question, I was thinking "Paper Matches??" I thought they were cardboard... Also, my truck has 6 lug-nuts. I've read that there are some cars with 4-per tire. Bashful is one I always remember, though I always forget Doc.
I agree that the drain force isn't fair, I've seen it both ways. I got pegged on #3, 9, 10, 12, and 19; I got 2/5 of #4 and 1.2 of #5 and 23. I don't know if I got #13 wrong because I don't know if they mean left or right facing you or on the hanger. The majority of my clothing is pull-on and often tie-in-back.

I was a Christian before I started any martial arts training. Even though I grew up a Buddhist, I had no problem bypassing the more metaphysical or Buddhist/Zen aspects of the art. I simply viewed martial arts as a stress reduction and physical conditioning. Granted, it does help with mental focus and energy. In turn, I used that mental focus to help in prayer and meditation. There are many parallels that can be drawn in martial arts training and a Christian's walk. (practice through repetition, humility, selflessness, etc.) Though some may take offense, I see no problem finding the fingerprints of the Creator in all things, not just scripture. Martial arts are simply another aspect of life in which God can use to influence - and He can use it all to that effect if we only slow down and pay attention.

I missed #4 (5 out of 6 also.. I had blue instead of gold), 10 (I should have gotten this one, though I agree with you), 11, 13, and 18.

Although I do confess I had to mentally mime through the process to remember.

Kim doesn't wear many button-up shirts. Those she wears are usually mine :)

Must be because my nose is always stuck in a book and I just don't notice things. 8)

The reason I ask is that about 10 years ago I did a study on it using only the writings of non-christian partakers. It was an eye-opener.
