But I think at least one of those sentences is a bit of a gray area.

I'm not a fan of the semicolon and avoid them as much as possible.
I’m enjoying the colon I was born with. Well, not so much “enjoying” it, but I’ve grown accustomed to it being there and taking exactly that much space in my abdomen. And I swear I will kill myself before allowing any medical butchers to remove any portion of my colon. No semicolon for me, thank you.

PollyPaperclip: I agree, there were one or two of the "where to place the semicolon" questions that were either very subtle or were grey/gray areas.

I missed the one that required me to recognize that it was a city followed by its County. oops I flunked British geography.

I got 9/10, and it was because of the county geography, too. I might have gotten it if I'd slowed down to read it more closely.

I love semicolons, and I use them quite a lot. Some of their uses do take some getting used to, though. It's not always self-evident when it's a better choice than a period.
