"Think Like A Richard" Quiz

In honor of Talk Like a Pirate Day, which I missed celebrating here, today is Think Like a Richard Day.  If you've been reading this blog for a while, you may feel as if you already know me.  The main reason for this is that you probably DO already know me.  I don't think anyone other than my friends has ever seen it.  Even so, there are Richard aspects that have only been revealed in the blog, and I thought this would be a good time for a review, so it's your turn to do some work.  Instead of my writing a blog today, I'm going to perch in the neck of your CRT and watch while you take this quiz.  If you've memorized every one of my blog items, you should have little trouble getting a good grade.  I hope you've been paying attention!
