    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.

    • VJ says:

      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.

    • VJ says:

      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.

  3. Corey says:

    What time did they finally post this, midnight?

    • VJ says:

      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

  4. Richard Corliss says:

    Semifinalists:
    Gary Hollis: $20,000

    Wild Cards:
    Hester Blum: $12,000
    Gautam Hans: $1

  5. VJ says:

    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.
