west coast lost the final answer. We got to see another old final answer. A real whiskey, tango, foxtrot!!!
Did Carrie spell out “Denver” correctly. On my TV , it appears she left off a letter at the end.
Now that I’m taking a closer look at that, Michael, it appears she did leave off the the “r” at the end. I just took Ken’s word for it.
It appears to me Carrie overlapped the “er” at the end if you look at how she wrote the “e” after the “D” beginning his last name. I don’t think just an “e” at the end would have been accepted by the judges.
Not sure if we are going to have 1 day champs for next week but Jay might pull off a streak. You might never know what will happen. John Denver was one of my favorite musicians.
So after Amy Schneider’s streak come to an end on Wednesday, we had a new champ for the rest of the week. I think that we’re going to have a one day champion all next week. Anyway we were so close to having a tiebreaker if Kirsten responded correctly in FJ!
