Take this quiz and let everyone know how many answers you got correct. I'm embarrassed to say that I got only eight correct and was most surprised by this answer:

"Everyone is someone in New Mexico"

I got 11 which surprised me considering that unless you study the NM State congressional 'Official ______ of New Mexico' list, you are going to be pretty lost. A test of geography, history, and culture would have been more interesting.

Also, the state vegetable completely threw me. I would have assumed potatoes or onions considering they are the most widely grown and consumed vegetables in the state.

Minor Spoiler/Hint: Instead the correct answer defies the name of the category.

Got ten and stopped with a few left. Like to try guessing pics of places.

The ads made it next to impossible to go through the whole list, but I managed to get 3 right out of about 11.

I use adaware, too many advertisements on KOAT when I disable it.

Ended up with 12.

Not a bad survey, though some links to say, the full poem, or wiki pages for the other things would've been more illuminating.
