auto racing trivia

I was beginning to feel really bad about the Auto Racing Trivia section of the Stampede. For a while, I thought I was the only one contributing questions. The problem is that Stock Car Racing is the only kind I know and I felt like Indy cars, Formula One, Grand Prix, Drag Racing etc. weren't getting the attention they deserve. Then somebody plops down a pile of racing questions and builds that catagory up to way over a hundred questions. I hope they covered all kinds of racing. Anyway, somebody, thanks. I feel better already.
And then there was the card and board game catagory. It was doing okay, and I had thrown in a few questions, but not enough. Right behind me on the pool table, I have about 25 board games, (most of them destined for collectors, I hope) and I should have been using that resource. Well anyway, somebody plopped a bunch on that one too. After I retired, I think I actually missed making out test questions. I hated grading tests, but a good diabolical question was a work of art. One of my meanest tricks was to thrown in a four-part multiple choice with all right answers. It drove the little munchkins nutty, but because it was a right answer, and it helped the grade, they didn't mind. Unfortunately, I couldn't use that one very often.
I think I'll try that link again.
