At least once a month, I try to put together the News Cut weekly news quiz. This is your lucky day. Be sure to post your results below.

I performed miserably as usual. 6 out of 15. I almost guessed several correct answers - does that count for anything?
8 out of 15 with one hint. Pretty ok considering I normally get a 6 or 7. I must have less to do and more time for News Q.
My best performance ever on a News Cut quiz. 12/15. Woo!
11 out of 15--my all time best. it must have been Wait Wait Dont Tell Me! BYW, when is a meercat a mercat? (We cats have to stick together.)
9/15, with no hints. And I should have had two more, but second-guessed myself...
11 / 15. By far the best I've ever done.
I got a 10, no hints. Is is bobblhead or bobblehead? Wow. I feel dumber just for typing that.
10 out of 15.
Not bad considering I thought this was one of the hardest news quiz I've taken here.
11/15 again. I'm stuck there. Should have been more -- I knew some of the answers, I just read the question wrong. Yeah, right.
13/14- I love summer vacation! More time for News Cut and life in general. I told you so--summer vacation DOES make me smarter!
It appears that I've started the mid-summer vacation a week early this year. Only seven!
