Monkey Barn Trivia

It's time for MonkeyBarn Trivia!

I thought all these questions up (and have verified them). The answers are in the Comments. The way to play is to write down 1-10 on a piece of scratch paper, and then write down your anwers before you look. Game Show Rules apply, so whatever you first write down is the answer you're stuck with. (For example, if the question was, "What is 2+4?" and you write down 7 and then scratch it out for 6, you're screwed.) Obviously no Googling, and you only have ten seconds to write down each answer once you've read the question.

If you're brave, leave your score in the comments. (And no pulling a "Koz," refusing to write them down, and then after seeing the answers (when of course everyone remembers the answers) claiming you would have gotten it right.

If you get 7 out of 10 I consider you pretty smart, and if you miss the Starred Question, you suck and must send me a picture of you naked to make up for it.

Let's go!
