As it turned out, she could have bet $0, missed the question, and still win. I don't understand why James put himself in that situation. Don't mean to argue. Your guess is as good as mine.
But he was in second place at the time. He didn't even bet enough to get to the first place number. He was still in second before they revealed the lady's answer. He was betting that she would...
I don't think Jeopardy! asked him to lose. Their ratings went way down when they had a two week Teacher's Championship. Maybe James decided to tank it, but I don't think so. He's a professional...
The numbers 0-9 ARE Arabic numerals. As an Engineer, I couldn't function without them. I have no idea how to add, subtract, multiply or divide with anything else. I have no idea how to calculate...
I'm prepared for an active shooter at my home but nowhere else. I have a Browning Citori O/U shotgun. It's made for quail hunting and has a very short barrel. I figure it's great for close...
Shoulders can be odd. I once carved a Pumpkin for my kids on Halloween and the next day, I could't lift my left arm above my shoulder (I'm left handed and that's the hand I used on the pumpkin). I...
I'm not a horse racing fan. I do watch the three Triple Crown races, Kentucky Derby, Preakness, and Belmont. Other than those races, I pay no attention to the sport.

Please forgive my ignorance. I can play each of those chords at several positions up and down the fret board using the three basic chord positions. What do the numbers after your chords mean? ie,...
Sound like extortion to me. You ran the HP recovery like any normal person would do. I mean, if it's HP's recovery process you did exactly what HP wanted you to do. They want you to use the...
You may be too young to remember the "dirty dozen" from 1975. It's ancient history, after all. It's the only draft class that could rival the current class.

I'll be staying at home tomorrow. No desire to fight those crowds for a few dollars of savings. I'll gladly pay a slightly higher price to not be involved in the madness.
Stupid me. I couldn't wait to get rid of my 327 '69 Camaro when I graduated from college and got a job in 1976. I have kicked myself in the butt many times over that decision. I was a 22 yr old...
