Rob $2,000 + $727 = $2,727
Rebecca $4,600 – $599 = $4,601
James $52,126 + $38,686 = $90,812 (13-day total: $942,738) 

 

 

How do you do spoiler tags?   I wanted to post something in the GOT Dead thread that was taken from the books, but couldn't figure out how to hide it.

Did you catch when he said he prepped for the show in the children's section of the library.  He said the books are short and concise with lots of pics.  Said everyone should do it.

Could you imagine the big uprising if our President said that?  A lot of people would still say that he still wouldn't understand it...

My grandfather's first job was for the New York times way back in the depression era (and he was a card carrying member of the communist party). Anyway I remember my mom saying, he said, whenever he had to do a story about something he didn't know about he would educate himself via the kid's section of the library... When James said that it totally reminded me of that.

Very cool. 

My dad used to work for the Wall St Journal covering Capitol Hill.

Shout-Outs No Longer Allowed In Final Jeopardy!

James Holzhauer, on his Facebook page, has announced that shoutouts will no longer be allowed in Final Jeopardy, effective April 29.

Holzhauer said, “Tragic news! The end of a Jeopardy era is upon us on Monday…as the show’s producers have informed me that they’re no longer allowing personal messages in Final Jeopardy. No more shout outs!”

It is yet to be seen what the producers will do if a contestant attempts to defy them and give a shoutout anyway.

Finally a close game last night, wonder if this guy is getting bored with this yet? Winning 10s of thousands every night would never get stale one would think.

That is why I think Jennings did so well, he only cared about the winning streak, he wasn't that big on the money amounts...
