35 answers!

I'm sure you have been just dying to know the answers to all of Mark's birthday questions. And then when I didn't post the answers yesterday like I said I would, I'm sure that you had some silent tears streaming down your cheeks.
 
No? Well, tell Mark that lie anyway. It will make him feel really good about himself knowing that information about him could be so powerful as to make a person cry if they can't get it!
 
As I'm sitting here typing I am also mentally rubbing my hands together in anticipation of you reading this post. His birthday was so much fun and even though you couldn't be there, I am hoping that you will sit down (with your spouse anyone?) and compete just the same. Pretend I am there telling corny jokes and Mark is looking on in hopeless embarrassment and it will be like you were here last Saturday!

Steve and I took the quiz. Both of us got all the yes or no and true and false all right. This or that was harder. Steve thought Mark wanted to be more muscular and guessed vanilla and cavity. The last section was much harder. We didn't do well. I got ears pierced, Caleb, Christmas, football, John Wayne, Blue and Seahawks right. Who the heck likes whoppers? My whole family hates these. I usually throw them away at Halloween. Steve missed the tattoo. I don't know how. Career day was my favorite. Is there any photos floating around? Steve is very impressed with how much Mark benched pressed. He missed it by 100. And now I know never to serve him one of our family salads full of cucumbers!
