    ditto. i remember when i used to be smart...it's deteriorating quickly. :o:D
    and for the record, i still don't think 'food for thought' is a metaphor. what kind of comparison is that?

    if something is food for thought then it means that something needs to be chewed on, savoured, before coming to a conclusion. therefore any thought is likened to food. metaphor :)

    Well Dunk, what did you get?
    I got 19.
    I can't remember which one I got wrong.
    Cause I'm broken when I'm lonesome
    And I don't feel right when you're gone away

    got 19 as i got the metaphor one wrong also... metaphorically speaking my score was 1 slice short of a loaf
    oh scary... 40000 morbidly obese christians wearing fanny packs invading europe is probably the least scariest thing since I watched an edited version of The Care Bears movie in an extremely brightly lit cinema.
