    Wow that has never happened to me.

    I *have* skipped one by mistake.

    And I swear that thing changes answers. There have been times I *KNOW* I've answered correctly but it says I did not. A-holes!!!!

    You are right. I have noticed that too.

    I think it was my computer. When I use the scroll down button on my keyboard it erases the answers and I think I clicked on it by mistake. I always use the mouse to scroll down which takes longer when on my computer.

    Thank you, sir.

    I was particularly pleased that the RO'd Red Sox fan gave up the last few days. Just threw in the towel. I always love to see him lose.

    This is absolutely true, because even if it weren't, I wouldn't be foolish enough to say so.

    I had to laugh today; My quiz had a question about mustard and another one about hotdogs.

    I'd love the music category each week if it weren't for opera and rap. They get me every time. Sometimes I can get the opera questions but rap just does me in completely.

    Another month, another victory by JL25and3 and he even missed playing one day. I tip my cap to you sir (as I try to beat you.)

    Thanks, ma'am. I was wondering if we might end up in a tie - it was awfully close there!

    Music is the category I dread most. Eurovision - ugh.

    I agree about the music questions, rap is my downfall as well as when they ask questions about chords and notes since I am not a musician, just a music lover. I love mostly all kinds of music but I know nothing about rap, and some knowledge of opera. Some of the current pop music can trip me up since I dislike most of it.

    I actually like the music category, except for the Eurovision stupidity.
    Hate, hate, hate science & technology... and congrats on another month, JL.

    I thought that my fellow trivia fans here would enjoy the fact that The Boss made the front page of Sporcle's quizzes for today:
