blah blah blah blah blah blah car?

blah car blah blah blah blah blah?

blah blah blah car blah blah blah?

Missed three different car questions yesterday that I had missed previously.

Not sure of the wording of the questions, just saw "car" and hit three, hoping for the best.

FWIW--none of the answers were three.

MADISON was the president during the War of 1812.

I mean, really? I blame my hot 4th grade teacher for this one. Completely stared at cleavage in 4th grade social studies while Washington burned.
