I'll be generous and give you it.

Johnny played Nancy's boyfriend in Nightmare on Elm Street and was unceremoniously sucked into his bed by Freddy Kruger.

In mythology a certain god sacrificed a part of his body in exchange for knowledge. What was the gods name and what part of his body did he sacrifice?

I dont do quizzes and ask questions so if this is a ridiculous question just say and i'll try another, or let someone else take over. :wink:

You would be correct in thinking that. It is Norse.

Okay, sticking with Odin then:

Odin (along with the other Germanic Gods and Goddesses) is recognized by Germanic neopagans. His Norse form is particularly acknowledged in Ásatrú, the "faith in the Aesir". In which four countries is Ásatrú an officially recognized religion?

Stevie has none, but Istenem manages a credible 3 out of 4. However, telling you which one he got wrong would make this too easy. :)
