Down here in South Florida, Jeopardy is on at 7:30pm. Up in NJ (where all my relatives live), it's on at 7pm. I'm always tempted to call them at 7:25pm to find out how Ken's doing! So far, I haven't given in yet.



The sad thing is, even though it seems like he's won so much money, half of it (if not more than half) will go straight to Uncle Sam. I bet the IRS is watching him, saying "Go Ken, go!"

That's the beauty of being The Man. The IRS gets half of any contestant's money. What do they car if he wins or loses...

(Sorry, I got screwed on taxes this year and just made an appointment with a CPA. Taxes are on my mind right now, and I can tell you I'm not happy about that fact.)

Wow! 5 Ken Jennings fan clubs on Yahoo! Groups. I'm tempted to join them all and hear all the gossip.
