I was marked wrong for using vous vous reppeler

Is there a spelling error in the following?

Après s'être rasé la tête, Carl se sentit mieux.

Carl se sentAIT mieux

What do the letters OVNI stand for ?

Why is there no "s" at the end of "quelque"? Would it ever have an "s"?

In the statement "mon fils a de grandes oreilles" , why is it not "DES grandes oreilles"? Ears is plural, and "de" is the article, and "grand" is following a feminine plural suit.... I've noticed this with other items, mostly body parts, like toes, fingers, eyes. They all use a plural article "les" but when describing them, it turns to "de"

If I said "he had cats" it would be "il a des chats", right? What am I not getting!?

Can you say "je n'ai pas encore reçu" instead of "je n'ai toujours pas reçu"?

Also, can you say "il m'a fallu frapper à chaque porte"?

Could 'allons-y et payer' also be used or is this a set phrase? When else do verbs get stacked like this? 

I thought name days were always masculine. Why not here?

When was the "point" (full stop) replaced with the exclamation mark in French?   There seem very few occasions when the point is acceptable: But the exclamation mark seems mandatory in most circumstances. 

For this example:

Je ne comprends pas le temps que ça lui prend de se préparer !I don't understand the time she takes to get ready!
Isn't the subjunctive of prendre supposed to be prenne?
