Chatterbox: Chirp at Cricket

Cricket quiz!

Are you a long time Cricket reader? Start at level one and see how many you can answer! (If you can only answer a few questions, don't feel bad. I didn't make all these up from my head, I used my endless supply of Crickets.) Feel free to use your own mags! And this isn't a contest, since many of us have only been getting Cricket for a year or so.

Oh, and I apologize for the length, I just got carried away with all my fave stories. :)
