	trapezoid is another human bone with a z. It's a carpal bone found in the hand right next to the trapezium!

	Steve Zissou as the front-page picture for the quiz? Brilliant. Simply brilliant. Now I need to listen to some David Bowie before I go to bed.

	I see on this quiz that Ezekiel did better than Ezra. Is that how the band got its name?

	Damn you, Sporcle, for turning me into a Sporclehead. "Oceanic country? No problem! Let's see. Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu ... no ... Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Solomon Islands, Kiribati ... OK, so it has to be Samoa, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Palau, Nauru ... What else is there? ... Tonga, Tuvalu, Vanuatu, Micronesia, Marshall Islands, Solomon Islands, Kiribati, Samoa, Fiji, Papua New Guinea, Palau, Nauru. What the hell? How many is that? 12? WTF am I missing? I got Palau ... WTF else is in Oceania? Papua New ... NEW ZEALAND GODDAMMITSOMUCH"

	dude, seriously? Elizabeth should either count for neither I or II, or for both. It's the name that counts for this quiz, not the number. Saying Queen Elizabeth should not equal QEI. Not cool.

	Tanzanite is another birthstone with a 'z' in the middle - yet another official birthstone for December, as of 2002. Yes, of course it's a ploy to make more money. But it's a lovely stone and a great 'z' word.

	Today, I learned that Charles Dickens never wrote Tale of Two Zitis.

	Seeing Martin Chuzzlewit and trapezium guessed more often than Verizon gives me hope that advertising hasn't totally fried our brains! (not that I got any of the three..haha)

	It's one of those days when I get both books of the Bible, but strike out on monarchs. Of course, I thought it said "Prime Ministers...." Once again, struck by that lack of detailed reading.
