Re: Fun with GSN's "Master Minds"
For the "From hell's heart, I stab at thee..." question, I'm counting my answer of Khan Noonian Singh I started there with you, though I also managed to work my way to the expected answer. I wonder what the connection is between Star Trek and Moby-Dick - in First Contact Picard (mis)quotes from the...

In the "Three Cs" category, I got the correct answer (cockscomb) but thought it was wrong because I spell it "coxcomb" (only 2 Cs). Turns out both spellings are acceptable.

Poster hbomb indicated on Facebook that the show will resume taping new shows later this month using an interim host. This information comes from a source not affiliated with the show, so take it for what it's worth.

I'd be interested in a poll question asking whether Dread Pirate Roberts was only known because of The Princess Bride . I had absolutely no idea he was actually a real pirate, but when spotted Dread Pirate, I'm going for the obvious. Count me as one who got this because of the PB reference. Otherwi...

Arterial was a terrible trap. It's almost as if they put the word "adjective" in the clue just so the writers could go "haw haw". A better clue would have been "Word that describes blood leaving the heart" - arterial doesn't only have to refer to the vessels themselves, so you could make it more pa...

Also, would it be normal for miltary bases to have ovens? I know there are kitchen facilities but any image I have of military cooking from tv or movies never involves baking.

Re: Poll on Boardies Covid-19 Impact
I have had a positive test and have had symptoms that lasted almost two weeks, mostly a recurrent fever, dizziness and weakness, and nausea, but no respiratory issues. I'm currently on the mend.

Re: Tuesday, May 26, 2020 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I expect we will be seeing all three of these contestants in the semi-finals. I could cheer for any of them. Maybe they will all be in separate games! Then we can cheer for all of them! OK, for the record, has there ever been a tournament final in which the three contestants met in the first round?...

I'm curious for those who learned the "sometimes w" rule, when did you learn it? I learned "sometimes y" but NOT "sometimes w" in 1971. James Buchanan Elementary School, probably 2nd grade, so 1959-1960. I also recall hearing “sometimes w” but I had forgotten about it until now. And I find the fact...
