Watching Jeopardy at mom's for the first time for a long time. This guy who wins can not be legit. There is no pause with him.

There's another trivia show he was on a few years ago and destroyed that one too. They might have to add a new rule to cap him at a certain winning dollar amount or else they're gonna be out of budget for anything meaningful in the future. They used to have a 5 episode limit back in the day.

The other two only answered one question by the first break. They both finished around 13k and he had 130k and nobody answered a question wrong and only one question wasn't answered at all.

Supposedly he's gotten very good at the buzzer by this point in the airings. There was a contestant on reddit that said they knew nearly every answer but he's so good on the buzzer with all his experience with it now.

I was literally and I mean literally the only single straight male at the wedding. Only one bridesmaid was single and we were "paired up" for the ceremony. Few other single females out there but for the most part just a ton of couples.

So was this the person that the NOLA bachelor party was for?

Watched the 4 o’clock news and this reporter said she couldn’t report too much because she just showed up 15 minutes ago. Now at 6 she says she has been there all afternoon.

I also feel bad for this one guy, he looks 16 and always gets the total crap assignments. He’s usually in the pouring rain or white out snow storms.

Games shows like Jeopardy make way more per episode than what he is making. Back in the early days of Wheel of Fortune they said it cost about $2 million a year to produce and was bringing in about $100 million

Somebody gave the dog some old rib bones. I found out when one got jammed into my foot. THAT FREAKIN HURT. Not much blood but enough.

Something wrong with my picture??? :mad:

Other than the fact that it was taken with a cell phone zoom and through a glass door and a screen door, that is? :oops:

I don't have the fancy camera stuff Boxster has, but my fee fees are hurt nonetheless...:(

Sorry, but I don't see the pics you post sometimes. :( All I get is the little icon in parentheses and "IMG". I'm sure it was beautiful!

We have a transparent feeder that suction cups to the door going out onto the deck. Great view of the birds. My youngest daughter has several bird identification books and loves to sit in the kitchen and watch.

We have three of those on our big living room window. The house finches and sparrows used them regularly right away, but now daddy cardinal and the goldfinches are there quite a bit. Pretty fun to see them up that close.

He made some comment the other day to Alex about not realizing he could earn an income playing Jeopardy. It was pretty funny.
