    Happy Halloween to you.VJ. congrats to Andrew on his victory. If he wins his second game, he will relax for the next few weeks. Also how did Steve confuse captain nemo with bugs bunny?

    • VJ says:

      I wouldn’t say he got the two characters confused, Lou. That cartoon with Bugs at the South Pole probably popped in his head and he just said it when he couldn’t think of the right response. We were just watching the Bugs Bunny cartoon where the drunk stork delivers Bugs to the gorillas the other day. Funny stuff!

      I’d like to know why Steve changed to Camus. He must have thought Steinbeck was too obvious to be right!

    Happy Halloween! There is only one more game left until the Tournament of Champions. Whoever wins tomorrow’s game gets to relax for two weeks.

    • VJ says:

      Yes, Happy Halloween! I meant to mention that in the recap but it was a real 3-ring circus around here until the kids went off to a Halloween party.

      We often talk about easy clues. Well, how about this one in today’s “H”istory category: ($400) Attila was the king of these people from 434 to 453. LOL!!
