No guess on Fri.
No guess on Happy Trails.

Aaron Rodgers has one of the very few occupations where he is paid more than he would be as Jeopardy host. Anderson Cooper and Dr. Oz definitely make more than Alex did per year and Guthrie is probably in the neighborhood. Mayim certainly did when she was doing BBT. From what I can find, their annu...

Thank you Katie for the detailed explanation at the reveal. At least I know that my total made up WAG of Chickamonga was cromulent. I'm sure the writers provided the intel, but we've been left in the dark before by AT many times. This FJ was ungettable to me, if I finally remember Antietam, it does...

The thing I like best about the Carrera is that it has a

Well-played.

Not quite; she missed the fifth by several months.

Oops.

Heck, she was Queen for the deaths of the first FIVE US Presidents to die in office!

Well, after writing down the "Valvatine Rabbit" and knowing it was likely wrong.

Velveteen. Yours might pass the sounds-like test, but it's a close thing.

Do you think they would have taken "the Hindu Triumverate" for the clue that wanted Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva? I'm counting it, for now.

Never read OMaM, so the clue meant nothing to me. I had no response.

That article claims that jennings hosted for just 2 weeks. It sure seemed a lot longer...

2 ... 6 ... whatever ...

Interesting, Santiago's population is greater than Buenos Aires when only using the city proper, but the opposite is true when factoring in the metro areas. There's a lot of cities like that. Using city-proper, Jacksonville is by far the largest city in Florida, being almost twice the size of Miami...

Could be none of them.

That is factually untrue.

I had BA and Brasília.

Same here.

The way Rodgers pronounced Borden, with the stress on the second syllable, as if to emphasize that an E was used in the name, followed immediately by announcing a misspelling, had me questioning what the actual surname spelling was--Bordin? Bordon? Bordan? That was my thinking, too. Odd mention, re...

Would have missed Piper by saying Lear on the rebound.

The name is Learjet (OK, fine, it's Bombardier Learjet), not Lear. Lear doesn't do airplanes.

It was a dig in the sense that it, in the football world, might be an indication that LaFleur doesn't have full confidence in his abilities. That simply isn't possible. It was 100% LaFleur making the wrong call. Rodgers completed 70.7% of his passes for nearly 4300 yards, with 48 TD and 5 -- yeah, ...

Took about 5 seconds to realize aircraft cabin, but obviously that led to the correct person.

I was expecting something more in FJ than a snarky comment from Brandon. Yeah, but it was funny as hell. For FJ I started off with Phil Donahue and was pretty happy with that guess. Then Mr. Rogers occurred to me and I wasn't sure which way to go. For the clue, I liked Fred Rogers better than Donah...

= It was a gimme for me, but I don't know much about the college and wouldn't have gotten it if the clue didn't include "oceanographic institute". The only oceanographic institute I know is Woods Hole and I was pretty sure that wasn't it. I followed two of the contestants with Hearst (although I wa...

Rodgers next, then Anderson Cooper, then Bill Whitaker, then Mayim Bialik. Each gets two weeks.

There is a two-week gap between Whitaker and Bialik, as well.

I've always liked wiki's breakdown of the word: Construction of the word The word construction is as follows (succeeded by the number of letters in the word): establish (9) to set up, put in place, or institute (originally from the Latin stare, to stand) dis-establish (12) to end the established sta...
