“If there’s a God”—interesting utterance by a pope.
Hi, cece! My brother and I were talking about that too.
I’m glad I’m not the only one. I got funny looks last night when I mentioned that. Sure, mine is an atheistic household, but still…
why am I shut down and incorrectly told I’ve made this comment earlier? I’m surprised all the contestants spelled Richelieu wrong and not a single comment from the host. Sometimes these things are important and other times not?
Carin, it’s pretty well known that the contestants won’t be penalized for misspellings unless it changes the pronunciation. I might be wrong but I don’t remember Alex Trebek mentioning the rule every time misspellings were acceptable though it is mentioned when a misspelling is rejected.
I thought it was strange that Mayim didn’t tell Grace that she could bet up to $1,000 on that first DD.
Idk what happened with your earlier comment.
Why were they allowed to spell it incorrectly? It’s Richelieu NOT Richelieu.
I read “The Three Musketeers” a couple years ago, but not much of it stuck with me. I much preferred “The Count of Monte Cristo”.
Today is the 2nd anniversary of James Holzhauer’s last game.
I had Rochambeau.
Lou, do you mean Milady de Winter?
Looks like julia could definitely end the streak of leader curses with the amount of correct responses she gave today. I might think she definitely has the ability to get at least four or more games in her alley. Speaking of the henchman richeilieu, he wanted to guide d targanon to see the light but we all know that never worked in the three musketeers. He is in cahoots with that lady, what was her name in the book?
