Silk" Subject: Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #111 Message-ID: Organization: none Date: Wed, 25 Jun 1997 00:27:09 GMT Golden Oldies Lyrics Quiz #111 (GOLQ111) Hi Oldies Fans, There are no intentional themes in this quiz, and many of these songs have appeared in other GOLQs. On my last quiz, GOLQ108 (the "British Invasion" themed quiz), many entrants did exceptionally well. This time, I think you'll find it a bit more challenging, but hopefully as enjoyable! If you do not have the official GOLQ Rules (a posted copy of the rules should follow a posted copy of this quiz on most sites), then you may retrieve them via anonymous ftp from: bobcat.bbn.com:/pub/golq/FAQ/rules There have been no changes to the general rules since the last quiz. If you want GOLQs and their Results/Answers sent directly to you via e-mail, just send a message to golq-request@world.std.com consisting only of the word "subscribe" in the body, not the subject, of the message. Have fun, and the best of luck to all those who enter. Barry -- Answers must be received by 5:00 PM EDT on Tuesday, July 15, 1997.
