First, I was interviewed a while back by a guy from the Wall Street Journal about Jeopardy! and especially O’Brien’s Pub Quiz. Happily, the story‘s published, but sadly, I don’t see me in it. Such is life.
Next, a few weeks ago, Ernest Nino-Murcia e-mailed me with an idea for a weekly poll: Who is the strongest 2-time champ since the last ToC? (That is, people who won’t make the next ToC.) I thought that was a great idea. To refresh your memories before the poll starts, here’s the list:
Kendra Anspaugh
Jan Zasowski
Bhibha Das (Sorry; her last two episodes aired the week I was in California taping my own, and I didn’t blog about her first one.)
Boomie Aglietti
Brandon Libby
Amy Stephenson (I’m sorry I don’t have a picture of her. To be honest I don’t remember her either.) Edit: My friend Robert (see below) found a picture of Amy.
Kirby Burnett (Yikes! Without a picture, I don’t remember him either!)
Brendan Graham
Cathy Guiles
Judy Nichols (Don’t forget, I’ll be publishing an interview with her soon!)
Cindy Vanderbur
Richard Block
Aaron Cappocchi
Kathy Wright
Anna-lise Santella
A.J. Motley
Recent Coryats (Full disclosure: It’s Teen Week.):
originally 11-12-08: 39800 (42400 without negs. It’s Drew Scheeler‘s episode!)
originally 11-13-08: 35800 (38800 without negs)
originally 11-14-08: 39200 (41200 without negs)
Now for a recap of the Summer Hiatus Challenge over on the message boards! Here are the Day 3 questions. Names in green are the ones who got it right. Black means they clammed; red means they negged. The people we’re tracking and reminders who they are:
Me
Andy (He and I need no introduction. ;-))
Robert
Stefan Goodreau
David Menchaca
Ryan Chaffee
Joon Pahk (Speaking of Joon, according to this blog he is one of several favored to win at Lollapuzzoola today. Go Joon go! I’ve just signed up to play from home.)
Kathy Wright
Drew Scheeler
Bill MacDonald
Julie Bratvold Ghanbari
Megan Barnes
Vito Cortese
Alison Stone Roberg

Now, I can’t believe how many people aren’t playing this year. I counted 9 people without even trying that are MIA. I have this horrible feeling they’re not gonna realize the challenge started early, since new episodes are playing this week. At the same time, I can’t imagine they all watch Jeopardy! every day, forget about Kids Week!
Overall standings as of the moment I’m typing this, keeping in mind that I believe this counts Day 4:
Joon
Julie
Drew
Stefan
Vito
Ryan
Alison and Bill (tied)
Kathy
David
Jeanie
Robert
Andy
Megan
Isn’t this fun?
