Famous brands, people and places that are obvious to you are not so obvious to me i.e. "Breakfast restaurant acronym", I've never even seen an IHOP, I don't know that Yale is a New Haven School or that 2000 Green party candidate is Ralph Nader so I'm clicking on the hints a lot.
I'm not stupid, but I've been doing Flexicon today for 2 hours and only got to 625.
It will get easier, because Flexicon repeats a lot. Although it does help to have a solid grounding in US trivia.
I received some AA miles, too. Only 20K still outstanding. Next Tuesday, I hope, and then the task of redeeming them.
