1. Thank you for not posting a spoiler

Looks like the State of the Union speech will preempt our broadcast on the west coast so I don't know when I will see it.

20. I loved that guy

Betting 18,000 on a daily double......kid's got balls!

[malaise]

21. I watched the entire teen tournament

and he's very calm, self- assured and deliberate. He's also quite funny.


Truth is that if he didn't take that gamble he wouldn't have a chance since Nelai had a commanding lead after the first part of the final on Monday. He was third.

I think Newt Gingrich should have a rethink about Afro-American role models - Obama is the best thing to happen for these kids ever.

outsmarted - too cute by far.

13. my daughter was on Teen Jeopardy

when she was a senior in high school ... she didn't win but it looked good on her application to Cal where she was accepted and graduated.

[malaise]

14. That would look good on any application

You must have been delighted.

[AtomicKitten]

17. I was.

She was the only kid in an amphitheater full of hopefuls testing that passed the test. She's wicked crazy smart.

[malaise]

18. Well you deserve some credit for that

Kids learn from their parents and we provide some of the environment for their growth.
