I missed the silver bullet (I didn't watch cowboy shows), and the Timex.  All the rest were a piece of cake.  Right in my coming-of-age years.  Now I feel better about my memory.

I got them all. I think I have a few years on the rest of you.
 
Getting older has its rewards. You can remember things that other folks never heard of. At least untill you start to forget everything. Think I am balanced at that point about now

 Just took your test and I only got 2 wrong. I have to admit that on question 10 I was wrong on the character but right on the God Bless. Man you really can tell your age when you can remember just about all of the answers to those questions. I thought the test was great.

I got all of them right except the first one: Silver bullet and part of another one: Freddie the Freeloader.  And this stuff is from my parents generation, not mine!  But I always did say I was born in the wrong generation.

I could envision Red Skelton's "Freddie the Freeloader" but couldn't come up with a name.  Fun test!
