Tried out for "Jeopardy!" myself, about 15 years ago.

That's been one of my dreams ever since Art Fleming was the host.

The test they gave me wasn't that tough; the trick is getting selected to even take it. And, Alex Trebek himself administered it at Yokosuka Naval Base - guess he wanted the free flight to Japan ;)

I was lucky to get my name pulled from a hat to come take the test at all. I might have made it onto the show if I hadn't stood a 12-hour mid (night) watch the night before the test - big argument with the ex-spouse, caffeine nerves, and half-dead on my feet.

Jeopardy! runs contestant searches from time to time that they advertise on the show. I hope you can get on one. I'll certainly try again if they ever test in this area.
