That one actually required me to count. Good thing it was early morning, I didn't have my socks on yet and was able to use my toes!

 

[brownsfn2]

Hmmm... It's only day 2. This "should" be easy.

A lot of people hate driver 8, 88, 24, 27, 28 so I guess I'll randomly pick one of these to get the right answer.

I'm guessing it's 24. Or is it 48? Could be 5 or 88? I bet it's someone that drives a Chebby!

My favorite was Alan Kulwicki (hence the screen name :biggrin. He drove #7 but was killed in a plane crash about 20 years ago....

My all time favorite NASCAR driver Geoff Bodine bought the assets of Kulwicki's race team after Alan was killed....

Dadgummit, I'm wrong. I missed the whole "in 2012" part, and submitted an answer covering the entire featured pen thread, going back to 2008.

WE HAVE 2 MORE WINNERS

Our second pair of winners are:


AKPenTurner
and
JDennis

The question for day 2, How many different pen makers have had their work shown in featured pens in 2012?

The answer we were looking for was-
17 (There are 18 pictures but martin pens was featured twice).


There were 81 participants and they were assigned the number that their entry was received in. The two random numbers generated were 52 and 75.

I assume Ed will be along shortly to post today's prizes.

Again congratulations to
AKPenTurner
and
JDennis

Just a reminder to put the date of the trivia question you are answering in the subject line of the email. I have disqualified several entries because the date was not in the subject. If it's not there, I don't know which day's question you are answering.
Also be sure to include your screen name when answering. I had to disqualify a winner because he did not give a screen name and his full name he gave me did not show up in a search of the members, nor did his city and state show up in a member query.

 

[Joe S.]

...I was right about Martin pens being twice, but I miscounted somewhere and came up with 19...

 

[AKPenTurner]

Wow!! I feel lucky...
This bash is off to a fantastic start!

 

[JDennis]

Feels great to win something. Now, on to the superbowl, Ravens (1) 49ers (9). I need some blanks from the game pool.

[JDennis]

I would like the Alumilite!!!, My copy of "The Penturner's Bible" isn't autographed, but I do have one.
