Thanks for posting–better late than never!
Stumpers and FJ very tough for me. I knew the “rocker girls” band movie. Jackie Fox (multi-day champ a couple years ago) was the bass player in that group.
Thanks, Howard! Yes, Jackie won 4 games in Season 35 beginning on 12/14/2018, using her real name Jackie Fuchs. She’s left a few comments. This one is on her last game.
From what I read, Jackie was not in that movie because she would not give them the rights to include her.
Glad you are okay VJ and also w really appreciate you posting this. Also Maybe the internet glitches are running amuck around here and usually the computer will tend to be very slow not letting posts go through. I am happy to see Hester getting a wildcard spot and our first semi finalist.
Thanks, Lou, I don’t think it was the internet. I don’t think the touchpad on my notebook is working right. I dug out the cordless mouse that works with this notebook. Hopefully, that will take care of the problem.
What time did they finally post this, midnight?
No, Corey, I published it this morning when I woke up at 4 a.m. I thought I published it at 3 p.m. yesterday, but unbeknownst to me, it didn’t go through
Semifinalists:
Gary Hollis: $20,000
Wild Cards:
Hester Blum: $12,000
Gautam Hans: $1
I am okay, folks. What happened here is like the other time the recap was so late — I thought it was published (at 3 p.m. yesterday in this case). I really should have checked on that when there were no comments by 7 p.m. but I wasn’t feeling good by then. I thought I would feel better if I went and slept on the couch for a while and I didn’t wake back up till now,
Sorry about that — I will double check from now on.
I am so glad that you are okay, VJ. You never have anything to be sorry about with us.
Thanks, Rhonda and thanks to Cece and klm for their messages.
You’re very welcome, VJ! And I second Lapin, that you never have to be sorry with us. You rock, thank you!
