[hint: One of these questions is a trick question]

1.  What is the title of Robyn and Todd’s alma mater University fight song?

2.  Our oldest son has a very “cool” birthday date – what is the month / day / year (using double-digits for all three – example: 07/20/11)?

[hint: Blogger Dooce.com's oldest child was born the exact same day - our two oldest children were born just hours apart]

3.  Robyn’s 10th blogging anniversary is coming up – what date was her first post?

[hint: It wasn't at this blog / URL - see links above]

4.  What conference did Robyn and Todd attend in San Antonio in January 2011?

5.  What member of Weezer has Robyn had a crush on since college?

[hint: One of my old blogs had an entire category devoted to =w=eezer]

[hint: It is now owned by Melissa Connolly - and combined during Robyn's 5 years as Founder / Chief Organizer, and Melissa's 4 years that have followed as Chief Organizer, together both have raised around $75,000 for Susan G. Komen and blogger-related charities]

9.  What was the title of my “Goods” column in the March 2011 edition of “Professional Photographer Magazine“?

    woohoo!!! You’re right, the bowl question WAS a trick one! Lucky for me I have several friends who are Longhorns fans and I remember the lament of the failed bowl appearance of 2011. lol
