DDs, FJ, stumpers all very tough tonight. Only Oglethorpe’s colony and Huck’s rafting partner kept me from being shut out. Never heard of the Jutes, but had heard of the Jutland peninsula.
Close contest tonight; anyone could have won.
I think Alice said “What is a toe?” twice. Does that qualify as “two-toed”?
Wow, some tough triple stumper FJs earlier in the week, a slam dunk for yesterday’s FJ, but yet another FJ triple stumper today. No, I’m afraid that none of us came up with the correct response for today’s FJ either.
And we got a triple stumper for the third time this week resulting a losing week for the Final.
For the third time this week, we had another triple stumper in FJ! It’s been a tough week for FJ! this week and we end the week with the smallest payday of less than 5,000.
