I also got 100% correct--we ain't just smart, we are old!
BTW, I knew the man the cartoon character was named for--he was Frank Smith, a man who worked in church recreation for Southern Baptists. I spoke with his wife recently at a local pancake place.... Frank was known as Pogo to all who knew him.

I also got 100% ... but I've seen some of those before... I prefer to think of us as "Experienced" (and got the gray hair to prove it!) except for remembering who Mary Martin is (Funny part about that is I only remember her in a Black and White image!)
