I thought Tim’s bets were way too low on all of his Daily Double wagers. He found all three of them and bet about $6,000 in total. That seems very conservative/shy to me. Although he clearly did enough to win the game.
I never heard of that pudding until now, but it was typically a porridge made of corn meal and milk.
Me either. Urgh!
VJ. can you believe Gigi came up today in French Literature?
Lol Bunny, that was crazy, wasn’t it? It was such a close call, I had to check to make sure I was really safe!
It sure was, VJ. They even showed a picture with the clue lol. It couldn’t have been a closer call!
On top of that, my brother and I were watching “No Way to Treat a Lady” (Steiger, Segal, Remick) after the show and Steiger did a Maurice Chevalier impression! lol
Did he sing “I Remember It Well? lol
Tim played an awesome game today especially Jen. Unfortunately Jaclyn couldn’t keep up. Congrats to both Tim and Jen getting final right. I think Tim could build up on his win if he continues. He could get a big payday hopefully. Hasty pudding sounds delicious and I wouldn’t mind using it on ice cream or cake later.
Congrats to Tim Moon for his 1-day $28,200 win!
Jen Jazwinski doesn’t have a “T” in her name.
