I'm watching Jeopardy--Chris is really smart!

Yes, he is. The good thing is he didn't win enough money that he would quit and I'd then have to worry about getting a new boss!

A friend of mine, who played Nicely Nicely when I did GUYS AND DOLLS, is appearing in tonight's episode of HAWAII 5-0.   He plays one of the Elvis impersonators in the episode.  His character is named Taylor.

Jeopardy report. My boss lost. He put up a good fight but the guy who won came off as kind of a jerk and he didn't even know the answer to Final Jeopardy. He couldn't be caught. He had more than double the amount of what Chris and the other contestant had so he didn't have to bet anything, which is what he did. He got 2 of the 3 Daily Doubles and he answered one correctly (just barely) and he got the other one wrong. Chris also shouldn't have answered some of the Disco questions. Oh, well. I AM surprised that no one knew that the Sun newspaper that ran Yes, Virginia, there is a Santa Claus was the NY Sun. I was yelling that at the television!



For some reason, I thought it was the Baltimore Sun, too.   I did know that Donna Summer was the Queen of disco, though!

Correct me if I'm wrong but in the old days, wasn't it true that only the winner on Jeopardy got cash?

Finishing packing for my quick weekend trip to Buffalo.  My flight is at 7:55 am so I'll have to leave home around 5 am for the Baltimore-Washington International Airport.

That's too bad about your boss' loss, Ben, but good news that you won't have to get a new boss. :)

And did you (or anyone else) know that the great-grandson of Virginia herself was on Antiques Roadshow with the actual letter and response??  Here's a link from www.pbs.org about the original segment:

Well, it is Northwest night on network television.  In addition to my friend's apprearance on HAWAII 5-0, Mary Kay Letourneau and Vili Fualaau will be interviewed by Barbara Walters tonight on 20/20.  Mary Kay was the teacher who slept with and got pregnant by her 12-year old student. They have now been married for ten years, and have two children together.

Yes, Kevin, I think you're right. In the old days 2nd and 3rd place got "parting gifts" or something of that sort.

9 more days until I see the new doctor. I cannot wait until I see him. I am hoping that I won't have to wait long for a surgery date. It's getting more difficult every day to remain on my feet

DR Ben, yesterday the young woman who grew up in this house posted on Facebook that her "good friend and former neighbor Christopher Hurt" would be on JEOPARDY last night.  Small world, huh?  Tell Chris I found that guy who won tonight very annoying and CONGRATULATIONS on last night's big win!

Home from a great dinner with Bruce Pomahac, Rob Berman, and Joshie.  We had a good time, and I am happy to be gome from a long day out.

Had a very good work session with Sami - she's begun vocal lessons again with her good teacher and the difference is palpable.

Wow! I'm sure he has gotten Facebook posts and e-mails from all over from 2 days on television. Glad you found the winner annoying too. Anthony and I were both groaning at his way of playing. Oh, well. Chris said all he wanted when he got on Jeopardy was to win at least one game so he came through! I think if the winner hadn't been on tonight Chris probably would have won a second game.

I'll tell him about the neighbor and what you said when I see him on Monday.
