Right tournament, wrong round: it was the third semi when Chuck didn't play. http://www.j-archive.com/showgame.php?game_id=2555 Alex: Lionel, you're in third place. You've got $3,600 to risk on HORSES. Lionel: [After a pause] Go for it. Alex: All of it? Lionel: Yes. Alex: In the category HORSES, here is the clue. Until reaching this milestone, stallions, geldings & mares alike are known as "maidens" Lionel: Until winning a race Alex: ...Lionel, you didn't phrase it in the form of a question. I have to rule against you. -- -- TV or Not TV .... The Smartest (TV) People! You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TV or Not TV" group.
