Another 8/10 for me, these questions are getting tricky again! Had no idea on the solar eclipse one and guessed wrong, kicking myself for missing the Lent one though, especially considering I went to a religious school 😅 Think my average has definitely dipped below 9k now haha

The Lent one had me second guessing myself. I was pretty sure that it was 40 since that's a pretty biblical number. But then I thought I heard/read somewhere that "40" was also a number they used way back when as meaning an indefinite large number. "You know Ezekadiah? Man, that dude has like 40 [a bajillion] sheep!"

I think the auditory part of my brain read 14 and heard 40 haha, I knew I'd got it wrong as soon as I clicked it and saw the other answers

Who would have thought that Dallas would ever be associated with books? Oh, stacking them, not reading them--that makes sense.

Is the wording coreect for the last one ? I guessed 90+ years because you can go a lifetime without seeing one.

I understand that "somewhere on the earth" experiences a total eclipse every other year but "somewhere on the earth" hasn't had one in years.

Total solar eclipses happen every one to three years, but the events are usually only visible from Earth's poles or from the middle of the ocean. --Google
