Game Show In My Head

I don't think it's any surprise who's behind the keyboard on this one. Don't you pull any of this

"final answer" crap on me when you want to respond, though.

Before I go any further: WHO DAT! NOBODY!

...ahem. We now return you to regular programming.

I'm sure you've heard by now of my two ventures into the game show world. One, you saw just two (or three) weeks ago, but in case you haven't...

I mean, yeah, I kinda feel like the biggest bastard for winning the way I did. But if that

means winning $34,021 in stuff, then I'm not complaining.

But what many of you have probably not seen (or if you did, you didn't know me

at the time) was my epic flame-out on Jeopardy! six years ago. There will be plenty

of time to discuss that sooner or later, I'm sure. Just suffice it to say, if we ever watch my show,

I may have to step out of the room for a little while.

In the meantime, Will and Drew will be on Mind Games sometime in the future. How

fast we can get the episode out of the editing room depends on how lost we get in the

editing software. And as I've found out, that could mean up to three hours for just two

minutes worth of footage. So this means...maybe I'll have to lock myself in the Zemeckis

Center editing room for the rest of my life so I can just get this one show on the air.

That sucks. If I ever do another one of those shows again, hopefully I won't screw up the

rules this time and not get the tiebreaker confused with the rule stating whomever's ahead

at the last question wins it.

And I've discovered I've been playing game show apps on my iPod touch way too

much. Wheel, Millionaire, and Price are my games of choice right now. I'm just surprised

I haven't broken out into a screaming fit when I have a ton of money on the board and then

hit the Black Wedge of Doom. Although I have come across some very strange puzzles.

Honestly, who the fuck is expected to spell "WALES' LLEDDWYN ISLAND" for a puzzle?

Who hired these writers, and what the hell were they smoking?

"WALES' LLEDDWYN ISLAND"? Seriously?

And might I add...the Million is fucking impossible to win. I don't care whether it's Wheel or

Millionaire I'm playing, it's still fucking impossible. I've probably played over 300 games between

the two, and I've only pulled off a Millionaire win maybe once.

Have your pets spayed or neutered, in the meantime. And let's hope that the Bruin goes down

in the College Jeopardy tournament--if not tomorrow, then on Friday.
