Checked both rhyme boxes having said all four bits as well

Well, I liked that FJ and it's probably because I got it right. :D I really think they were shooting for us to think of someone in the royal family who's not a Windsor by blood. I knew Philip was born in Greece, so figured that means he's got less British blood than the other royals who married in,...

Would have gotten Welk if it was a DD

I remember the West Point Mint question from an episode of the US Chase. However, this would make the 2019 part of the clue inaccurate. The West Point mint has been in service a while, but it's typically limited to the fancy stuff (gold, silver, unobtanium, platinum). They have rarely done special ...

Not a fan... have to bounce back and forth to know which emoji goes with what clue for one. Don't you have to do that when replying in the poll thread? When I reply, all the poll questions disappear and a box opens up for me to type my response. I can, if I need, scroll down to the first post and l...

$8200 + 3DD, also FJ

If that coin was made of aluminum, it wasn't floating in water. That looked like the old surface tension trick to me. Yes, of course it was. I had to look it up because I thought it might be hollow. A lot of trouble for a penny valued coin, but that is what the Japanese do. The surface tension even...

Meh. Chase Field's introduced a clear bag policy. I need to go shopping...

Now, with most cable/fiber optic/satellite companies offering their own DVRs, and the elimination of VCRs, it's back to either "record", or occasionally "DVR", so DVR should now be on the tip of the tongue for a modern TV recording device, not TiVo. My mom used to say that she would "tape" somethin...

I think whatever the outcome, the next day's game thread should be started anyway, just to throw off those of us playing a day late.

Damn it, American Airlines...why did that flight I was watching have to go from $335 to $390 in the eight hours it took me to get home?! I was planning on getting it! Did you check the price on the same device both times? I have heard (but maybe just from conspiracy nuts) that some companies and bo...

1/5 for me in RECOGNIZING THE COUNTRY in only getting Argentina from the board game Risk. Bwak bwak on Vietnam & Afghanistan, tad slow for Algeria and failed to get wording hint for Iceland. "roughly a third the size of the contiguous United States" was the only hint that the clue gave. At $200, I ...

Saw the original Catch-22, but I can't seem to recall any of it.

Got 'fogy' even though I initially doubted myself because of the five letter variant, but...WECIB?

11 - *blank stare*
21 - War and Peace before realizing at the 29th second that "...that category probably means it wasn't a -book-"
22 - Madison,(wild flailing) George IV???
32 - Cuaron, ...spluh

Ran Science Around Us and American History to my delight, and almost ran NHL and Before and After, but I couldn't come with paycheck, and I've honestly never heard of Williams Sonoma, but I did know the poet.

Oh, you're in for a treat!
The 2019 Hater’s Guide to the Williams-Sonoma Catalog

It would have been nice to have retitled one of the categories something like "A CHURCH IN THE COUNTRY" to remind contestants to give the country, not the city. Other than Alex's aside at the category reveal, there's no indication that the response should be a country vs a city, and the confusion w...

ABC has all three matches in an 8-11 rerun block tomorrow (1/11) night.

Milk it, baby!

As someone who's done a Lord of the Rings extended marathon...that sounds -exhausting-
