i accept your challenge kmoney.

here is how it works: this is in two parts. the first ten questions will be fill-in-the-blanks. the categories are artist, album title, and year. one or more of these categories will be blank. that's where you come in. example: bjork, ________, 1993. the answer is: debut.

the second part is more difficult. i will display a song lyric, and you must name the artist, album title, song title, and year (in that order, please, to avoid confusion). example: "how can i go home with nothing to say?/i know you're going to look at me that way". then answer is ani difranco, out of range, you had time, 1994.
