A basketball game preempted the Jeopardy game again. In fact, that game lasted until sometime after midnight. Anyways, taking a quick look at the clues on this site, North Korea immediately came to my mind, and so did Japan. Well, I was half right, but I can’t take any credit even if I was completely right since it’s just not the same as playing the actual game.
I was 3/3 on DD, and got FJ. I knew the Hermit country, and guessed at SK (I was hoping it wasn’t something goofy like the 11 or 12-mile border with China).
The first round, especially, was rather pedestrian. I get what my erudite buddy Howard said, and I concur.
It’s Russia that has the short border with North Korea. The North Korea/China border is over 800 miles.
Yikes! So, I am ALL over the place!
Thanks for that, VJ!!
Missed much of first round, but it appears Revell went nowhere after missing that cinch DD. Third one was also a breeze. Might have hit the 2nd one, given enough time. FJ was murder. Gave myself half a point for knowing the City History FJ you posted from two years ago. That one I liked.
Josh’s $100K/6 wins is fair-to-middling IMO, about half what Ken J averaged over his long run. He’s solid but not unbeatable. As I pointed out a few days ago, a wise wager by an opponent would have toppled him.
A few stumpers were right there for the taking. Widower married in 1844 (that age difference no doubt was why she bore him 7 kids; one of his grandsons is 96 and still alive); Blank Blank Lies; Stern sidekick; Dutch art dealer; British dome/O2. Haven’t hit that many in a long time.
I have one thing in common with Revell — I love sea shanties and folk songs. 🎶
On the other side of the coin, I knew the answer to his Daily Double. I used to wear them. 🤣
And we got our third straight triple stumper as today’s final was tough thanks to that evil geography clue.
Your answer to the question in “Business” on 3/28 was wrong- it should be diversify, not diversity.
Thanks, I fixed it.
That’s three triple stumpers in a row. But congrats to Josh for winning every game this week. Exactly three months ago today, Laura swept the week of 12/23 while Josh swept the week of 3/24.
