This is (not) Jeopardy!

Just got back from being recruited to be the faculty member in a quiz bowl tournament. Helped some random fraternity win $250. I asked what my cut of that was and an eager young man said, "You can party with us at Homecoming!" No thanks. It *was* kind of fun. And we totally could have won the whole thing ($500) if some eager dudes on my team hadn't jumped in with the wrong answers. Oh well. Back to work.

    Did you have College Bowl flashbacks? Are the questions any easier now?

    I did have some College Bowl flashbacks! These questions weren't as much fun, though--there were entire sections about the same subject (like "state/city nicknames" or something like that). I like more variety!

    Also, it was amazing how quickly I got anxious and competitive over it all!
