Ok, without googling, write down the names of the nine Supreme Court justices. How many can you name?
I figured with the planets dropping from nine to eight, this would be a tougher quiz. (I got all nine by the way :) )

Only the Chief Justice, John Roberts. Doesn't he moonlight on CNN?

Here's my winging it -
Roberts/Alito - GWB
Ginsberg/Breyer - Clinton
Souter/Kennedy - George HW Bush
Scalia/Thomas - Reagan
Stevens - George Washington? - I'll try Gerry Ford. One of my neighbor's kids clerked for Justice Stevens - a great man. Hope he can hang around til 1/21/09!

(Just checked my answers - 7 out of nine - not bad!)
