Still employed, very happy to be so
Haven't had it, don't know anyone with it.
I will wear a face mask in public when I'm indoors, but not outside.

Starting with Film Directors will get you on my bad side in a hurry.
FJ was pure WECIB

bump for rerun

Probably had the weirdest guess for FJ. Thought babies falling out of a perambulator at Kensington Gardens was a reference to Cabbage Patch Kids.

The most popular female FJ response is (take a guess...)

Spoiler

the Statue of Liberty (nine times; Helen Keller is next with eight).

Huh, I would've bet money it was

Spoiler

Margaret Thatcher

Geez, I did better in the GOAT tournament.
NHO for the 1600. Edith Wharton was a gimme. I'll support any hypothesis that the valuations were off.

I'm surprised no one has yet mentioned the extreme negbait response in fantasy author Ursula K. Le Guin, who should at least be near the top of the list for any combination of clue keywords magician + Oprah. (She died in 2018, not 2019.) Oh good. Glad I wasn't the only one to see 'magician' & zero ...

All but tumbrel & Tilda Swinton
Of course I got FJ.
Got St. Elmo, did not get parliamentarian. My guess was sergeant-at-arms

Is the sanitation crew on strike? There was so much trash available for pickup.. :
Good on Zach for coming up with the joke response on FJ!
And I got this one

Did anyone else enjoy the synergy between the last two clues in "Three Names" and the two categories to its right? That had me hoping for a clue about David Clayton-Thomas. Too bad the players avoided "Three Names" like the plague, keeping us from seeing all five clues. I was expecting another ELP ...

:D :D :D on Daily Doubles Took a bagel in Home Improvement but ran Catholic Nations & Military Jargon. Disappointed that Classic Rock wasn't finished, but ending DJ on a Neil Peart tribute was wonderful. 8-) I'm just not connecting on FJs this week. :? Thought of Salk, figured he was too recent, tho...

on DDs.
Couldn't remember who was from NH, guessed Polk on FJ.
Agree with above poster on the Johnny Carson TS

on DDs. What's wrong with the simple word 'pour'?
I was stuck on religious films for FJ. Knew The Ten Commandments was too recent, but couldn't think of anything from that time. I was not getting GWTW our of that.

Had Alaska but not Hawaii.
Had slake

Clammed on Beyonce , Italy , & rollers
I am not at all surprised that tax is polling so low.

on Daily Doubles.
Gulliver's Travels was my precall before the FJ clue was revealed.

The Denver affiliate derped & aired yesterday's episode again.
on DDs. Matched Meggie w/inflation.
Lawrence of Arabia continues to remain a blind spot. Guessed Montgomery for FJ.

on Daily Doubles
Ran the math category.
My precall for FJ was the Arc de Triomphe. Easy enough to get to Notre Dame. :
In all, seemed the most straight forward game so far, Indiana Jones notwithstanding

Obviously Jenna hasn't seen the Herm Edwards clip.
The title of the category should've been Heaven and Hell
WTF does Hawaii have to do with the Northwest Passage?

Got FJ from "once the largest state in Germany" but hesitated because I didn't know it lasted until 1947 and thought it was weird to "abolish" it. Not weird at all. It got carved up between Poland and USSR. The exclave centered around Kaliningrad (then Koenigsberg) is the remains of Prussia. :geek:...

fell for Virginia.

Really, no one else was pre-empted? They did here in Denver.
