Reply:How sad for you that I'm not about to fall for that little lie...





Yeah, I had homework from 1985 to 2001. I think it's about time I get to have a break from it. I had my time, now it's yours, only fair.
Reply:well I am sure that 1,2 and 4 are correct.........

BUT 17 is wrong...it`s definitely a) Shakuhachi (a kind of bamboo flute)
Reply:If you think I'm gonna answer all those questions for a measly 2 points, you're only kidding yourself. I read to the second question and the person who actually answered them all definitely has the first one wrong, so I wouldn't count on the others.
