Thanks for the Thanksgiving messages and compliments, guys!
Happy Turkey Day to all. Not a great game; many stumpers and challengers did the best they could but couldn’t prevent another lock game. I’ve never heard of that play and meekly answered “Waiting for Godot” which could not have been correct. What I know about the Marvel universe could fit on the head of a pin with room to spare.
Should have known that first DD but said WMD by mistake. Second one was easy, 3rd impossible. Knew the missing word from “America” in Pride category and that was it for the stumpers.
A bir surprised only 1/3 got the FJ from two years ago, but that was something from my youth, a long time ago. But probably not an obstacle for one of the super champs.
My show wasn’t/isn’t being shown due to College Basketball. The infomercials in the wee hours, though, are intact. So, I only have VJ’s excellent summary.
1/3 on DD but got FJ. At least I didn’t have to see Harrison move as if on the waves.
Happy Thanksgiving all! Thanks again, so much, VJ!
Happy Thanksgiving, VJ and family. Thanks for everything you do for all of us who love your site. Blessings and best wishes.
Happy Thanksgiving VJ! Harrison certainly has a lot to be thankful with by winning his 13th game. He also surpasses Adriana Harmeyer and is now #14 in the all-time winnings.
