    Terrific game tonight; anyone could have taken it. Those stumpers were tough; only one I remember knowing was the singer of Stand by Me. I did know the Final. I vaguely remember a family who lived down the street about 60 years ago and were from what was then called Surinam.

    Aruba also has Dutch as an official languages

    I wasn’t aware that Suriname was a former Dutch colony. Well, as they say, one learns something new every day.

    what a dumb wager by Sri, yet he won. If only Cindy had doubled up!

  5. Louis Jin says:

    Well Sri has made us very proud to begin his stint as the new champ. Hope he wins 5 or many more games like Tyler did. Suriname was also the daily double response Roger Craig got previously. A great game and now looking forward to see Ken hosting next.
