    Sometimes FJ leads me down a rabbit hole, but tonight that was not an issue!

    Carol was impressive at times and had a few shots at preventing a runaway, but too many wrong responses. Alex was poised and darn smart. The Roman orator stumped him till the last moment.

    The fictional journal wasn’t too tough, neither was the notable boulevard.
    The E-W interstate was tricky, but I’ve been there a number of times. It runs from Jacksonville to Santa Monica.
    The Mt Pentelicus clue was not difficult to decipher. Neither was Judaism’s greatest prophet.
    Not into reggae but knew the Jimmy Cliff classic tune’s name.
