Gently strain your brain this Friday morning with some pop quizzes. Besides today's test, there are more in the archives. Sort of an educational way to pass the time (or your employer's time).

I know my pork. 5/5, baby!

Want to strain/drain your brain some more? Filmwise offers visual (screen shots) and textual movie quizzes.

4/5, and the missed one is embarrassing cuz I was born in the city that apparently is also known as Porkopolis. Fun and fast. Muy cool.

Thanks to my poor geography skills I got that one because Cinnci was the only one of those cities that i identified as being midwest.

5/5, but there's one I wouldn't have gotten if I hadn't read the comments here first. The Filmwise quizes are fun, too, especially the Invisibles quizes.

Perpetual popups are bad.

The pop-ups on the Mental Floss site were bugging me, too, until I figured out I was causing them (and how to stop 'em) - the window pops up when you move your mouse over the copyright info at the bottom of the page.
