Okay, results are in. I stumped no one so I recieve no points.

Debbie got all 5 of the regular questions right, and the bonus question. She gets 6 points, plus 1 for getting them all right, plus another 1 for getting them all right first. She totals 8 points for this round! Though none of us are really surprised.

Grandpa got 4 regular right and the bonus question giving him 5 points.

Laura got 3 regular questions right and the bonus giving her 4 points.

Jimmy got 2 of the regular questions right and the bonus giving him 3 points.

I'll add the totals to the scoreboard and we'll see how everyone is doing.

Here are the answers:

1. A - Chicken Pox
2. D - Osteoporosis
3. C - Additional fingers and toes
4. B - Sclera
5. B - Septum
Bonus B - Diphenhydramine

Everyone got #2, and the bonus question. Only Debbie got #5 right. Congrats!

Mom you've got just 2 categories to choose from...

Technology
Literature

These will be rounds 8 and 9. Round 10 will be Miscellaneous. Once those rounds are completed a winner will be chosen and a new game will start.
The next game will be more specific questions (i.e. Entertainment - Movies - Actors - Tom Hanks, History - America - 1940s, etc.). Think of some you would like now because you guys will pick most of the next categories... Good Luck!

Seeing as Mom didn't choose, I chose for her. The next quiz is Literature, which means that Technology will be #9 and a Misc. Quiz will be #10. Good Luck!
