I got a 17.

I had milk delivery in the early 70s at my house. We used to fill the milk cooler box with frogs and stuff we would catch. Not as a prank to scare the milkman, just because it made a nice container.

My cousin had a GMC Gremlin in the mid 80s. I helped him replace the foot switch for the lights, because it had rusted through.

My mom used to collect those green stamps when I was a kid. She got a cheap wheelbarrow with them one time.

My kids today, in 2006, do Eeny-meeny-miney-mo to decide between things, unless there are more than two, then they do one-potato two-potato.

We had those wax bottles filled with bug juice when I was a kid, but I wouldn't call them popular.

Also had those metal roller skates that needed the key.

I sniffed plenty of mimeographed paper. Even helped the teacher once after school by cranking out papers on the machine. It had a big handle.

The other ten I got right were things I had heard of or were obvious guesses based on how the questions and answers were phrased.
