After bombing on 3 of my practice calls, I finally decide there's no sense in postponing and make the real one. Here are the questions I got...
ATW to form song title from My Fair Lady:
1. Loverly
2. Wouldn't
3. It
4. Be
2-3-4-1, no tricks involved, and onto 2...
Put these ad characters in order of when they were introduced, starting w/earliest:
1. Budweiser Frogs
2. Jared the Subway Guy
3. The Marlboro Man
4. Mikey from Life cereal
TV watching pays off, LOL...it's 3-4-1-2, and here comes 3...
Arrange novels in order by war chronicled in each, starting w/earliest:
1. All Quiet On the Western Front
2. Gone w/the Wind
3. The Last of the Mohicans
4. ? (the war in question was def WWII, though)
History knowledge also pays off. :-) Correct order's 3-2-1-4, and now for #4...
Put these Robert DeNiro films in order of release, starting w/most recent:
1. Wag the Dog
2. Backdraft
3. The Untouchables
4. Analyze This
Same story, only w/film knowledge...uncertain about 1 and 4, but I deduced that WtD came before AT, and entered 4-1-2-3...it's correct, and now comes the final question...will I be eagerly awaiting a callback, or kicking myself for tripping up on the last Q? Let's find out...
Put these rivers in order by length, starting w/longest:
1. Nile
2. Missisippi
3. Sen(?)
4. Congo
I again resort to educated guessing...Nile must be the longest, then Congo...never heard of #3, should it go next-to-last or last? I decide on the latter, entering 1-4-2-3...the next words from Fred, the question guy?
"You have correctly answered all 5 questions. Now you will select a tape date."...although it was obscured by my joyful cries of "YES!!!! ALL RIGHT!!!!!", etc. :-)
If the call comes, it'll be tomm, between 9-noon...gave them the # of my workplace, since I'm there from 9-1. Hopefully they'll get through there w/no probs.
I'm almost hyperventilating w/joy...wish me luck! ;-)
