I am still watching J! but have been away from this fine group of people because I’ve been finding myself shorter of temper as of late, and I did not want to “blow up” on anyone unduly. The best thing for me to do is to stay away.
On another tack, this FJ, my co-host mentioned this exact thing one week ago on our show. Go figure!
Overall, I did OK but got only the first (easy) DD. The last one was newsworthy and I should have known it. “Sexy” on the 2nd DD led me to say “reproduction.” Final was a killer. Props to Zach for getting it; too bad he was left in Jamie’s wake. Thought for sure JD would go big on Final. Saved himself thousands. Can’t say I got any of the stumpers.
I watch very few scripted TV shows, and don’t have premium or streaming channels, so I’m at a real disadvantage when those come up. I shake my head in amazement when current players easily rattle off names of these shows and facts about them. There are just so many.
Jamie has swept the week for the 6th week in a row. He is now 1 win away from tying James’s 32 game win streak back in 2019.
