2014 Year In Review Quiz

Dear Nieces and Nephews, as we forge ahead in 2015, your Auntie Alibi and the Team thought we would prepare for what lies ahead (You know, the “Those who forget the past..” type of thing) by starting off with a  little quiz remembering events of 2014. While your Auntie will not grade your quiz directly, you will have a great deal of satisfaction AND will be one of our nieces and nephews that are better prepared to combat corruption, the ethically challenged and the merely incompetent. The good news is that the elected officials who do not fall into one of those three categories, will be better able to “do the job” when we help get those undesirable officials, out of the way. So, without further ado, here we go! 

10 Q Quiz:

All of the answers have either been posted on Orange County Outlook (NY) by Auntie Alibi, referred to in a posted link or reported in the general news media such as the Chronicle, the Times Herald Record or the online news, www.midhudsonneus.com

Please note, the answers will be posted next week, have fun!
