How about some easier ones I need to feel like I win once in a while. :D
ALOHA!!

MOTTO TO LIVE BY:

"Life should NOT be a journey to the grave with the intention of arriving safely in an attractive and well preserved body, but rather to skid in sideways, chocolate in one hand, champagne in the other, body thoroughly used up, totally worn out and screaming.

WOO HOO!!, what a ride!!!"

This is going to worry me for weeks, I know my memory's strange as far as what sticks is concerned but this is worse than I'd expected.

This one is better, and besides... the admin of that other game is no longer active on here. The other one was so easy, that it wasn't a question of how many will I get correct, as it was a question of how fast can I answer them all correctly.

Keep coming back, and though the world may romp across your spine,

Let every game's end find you still upon the battling line;

For when the One Great Scorer comes to mark against your name,

He writes - not that you won or lost - but how you played the Game.





Mind you, a good long gloat's fun as well.
