A rather good check on all of us with old eyes.  Got a 54 myself, which doesn't really surprise me.

Jarhead - Yeah. You're probably right.

Gus - I use sweatpants with flannel shorts to soak up my crotch sweat.

Banzai Cat - There is no "partial credit" in grammar. Like anal sex. It's either in, or it's not.

Mirth - We learned long ago that they key isn't to outrun Star, it's to outrun Gus.

Martok - I don't know if it's possible to have an "anti-boner"...but I now have one.

Gus - Celery is vile and has no reason to exist. Like underwear on Star.

Gah!  I can't stare at the colors for that long; it hurts my eyes.  :-[ 

That being said, I suspect I wouldn't score terribly well.  I've long known I have issues differentiating certain colors, especially along the red end of the spectrum.

82, which seems to be not too bad for my age bracket.  I noticed the area I scored worst on was the blue-greens, which also happen to be the most limited spectrum available on computer monitors.

Meh. No thanks. Got other stuff I need to be doing.
All that is gold does not glitter,
Not all those who wander are lost;
The old that is strong does not wither,
Deep roots are not reached by the frost.

Got a 4.  Not too bad...but I'll never tell the wife or I'll be looking at paint chips for the rest of my life!
