I managed 18 of them. Some of them I did know, and had a couple of well-placed guesses. I did miss #11. I thought it was Abbie Hoffman, not Dylan. Did'nt know the Pogo cartoon reference, either.
Can I get some extra credit
for being under 60?

35 y.o. and I got 17/20.
Dang, now I have this stuck in my head:
I'm Popeye the Sailor-man
I'm Popeye the Sailor-man
I'm strong to the finish
'Cause I eats me spinach
I'm Popeye the Sailor-man!
At least I like spinach--cooked or raw.

i got 15,and i am 38,but i must admit I guessed most of them because i had heard my parents and older folks say the phrases when i was a kid,not because i heard them off of tv for myself,i didn't even watch tv until i was 16 years old.
