Thanks, Tigershark! That was a lot of fun.

Only on JBoard would Strindberg be a likely co-sheep. :)

Typically, not not necessarily. I've always thought as "soft" drinks as non-alcoholic and "hard" drinks as alcoholic.

Congrats to Woof, mujason, and jgamer for topping the TD leaderboard.

Tigershark, this TD was an absolute delight. Every question was fun. Thanks for all the work you put into it! I just might take you up on that motorcycle ride with the Demon Deacon. It will give me an excuse to go back to Winston-Salem and enjoy a few pints of ale at Foothills Brewing, and perhaps a couple of other licensed establishments.

Woot! A rare podium finish for me. I was sure I was a goner after my silly neg on Frank Gore, but any TD with 2 chemistry questions (and one on my particular passion of organic nomenclature!) is going to turn out well for me. Thanks so much for running such a fun TD, tigershark.

I pretty much knew Shakespeare was going to score really well, and yet I still couldn't bring myself to pick it.

Thanks for a really fun TD, tigershark. Great theme, great variety of questions. I'm totally coming back to this thread to bone up on mythology (with pictures!).
Sprinkles are for winners.

For the record, all of this academic material assures me that I do NOT want to go back to college. :)

This was a terrific TD and thank you very much for hosting it, Tigershark!
