Halo there! Do you fear to tread? Do you look homeward quite often? Do you have a dirty face? If so, enjoy our twenty-question Angel quiz.
Take the Quiz: The Angel Quiz
I only got ten of these. I guess I’m going to hell.

I somehow got 80%, despite thinking (when I saw the teaser “Lunchtime Quiz: Got Wings?”) that all of the questions would be about the antics of a couple of pilots in Alaska.

Um, wow. “Alaska” should have been “Nantucket” in my previous comment. Practical advice: don’t try to respond to two blog postings at once.

Fun quiz! 65% here. Not great, but better than average …
Small correction: it was John Wesley’s brother Charles who wrote the hymns.

I had a problem with the Angels on Horseback question. I have only ever seen them in restaurants where they are scallops wrapped in bacon!

Thanks for including my favorite baseball team! It’s one of the very few I got right.
