Dave found this cool Philly quiz on a local TV station's website.

"With Philadelphia in the news recently because of the English-only cheesesteak controversy, we've noticed some national media types making fun on how we act. For example, certain writers criticized people here for ordering a cheesesteak "wit," saying that wasn't English, either. Of course, we all know what the word "wit" means, along with a few other words these outsiders may not like. So as a public service, NBC10.com offers the following short quiz to see how "Philly" you really are! It's not a timed test and don't feel bad if you don't get all the questions correct. But if you've spent some time here, you'll do OK. "

18-15 correct: You're a local - go eat a hoagie!
12-14: You have potential. Re-take the test
8-11: You need to spend a weekend in Philly.
0-7: Don't worry. Not everyone can be a Philadelphian.

    Dave,
    I took the quiz & got 15 out of 18. Not bad considering I've only been to Philly a few times!
    Love, Mom
