<b>Panerd</b> 242760

[ThunderingHERD]

I'm out. Props to the guy with the 24 foot TV.

[Pyser]

3rd. ill take it.

[wade moore]

damn..

Got killed by not thinking of Johnny Carson at all.. so I got hammered on two questions, even though I had tops on all of the others...

[panerd]

I have joined the elite 5-time winner club! Should be able to get something posted tonight and hope to have a quick turnaround.

[kingfc22]

Argghhh!!

27" TV over 32" was the difference.

[TazFTW]

No love for Bob Hope?

[RendeR]

No love for Bob Hope?


Bob was a movie star, not nearly as popular on TV. great man though. I wish there were a thousand more like him, he did fantastic humanitarian things throughout his life.

[TazFTW]

Bob was a movie star, not nearly as popular on TV.
Yeah, that's probably true. When I was searching for a good answer I saw a mention of Hope doing some TV in the late 30s and then 'Thanks for the memories' started playing in my head and I went with that.

[QuikSand]

Damn. Was baffled by the TV size question.... and I do, in fact, own a 27" TV. Didn't even occur to me to answer that. Ugh.

[ThunderingHERD]

Oh, shit.

[ThunderingHERD]

So here's the deal: I was running out the door as I made that last post and didn't even realize that I copied the wrong name for the winner. The actual winner was Desnudo with a score of 424830. Which explains why panerd appears in both 2nd place and first.

As for what to do about it: I don't know. I see panerd already has an IWS up. For your place on the winner's list I guess you can duke it out--or just join together, beat the shit out of me like I deserve, and take one of my wins.

Sorry. I fucked up. This is what happens when I try to do things sober.

[Raiders Army]

damn..

I'm with ya.

[Mustang]

Guess I was the only one looking forward to Everybody hates Chris...

I had a couple of second place answers, so I didn't expect to see my name at the top. But I figured it was just a tough ISW. I will put Desnudo's name on the hall of heroes and take mine off. But since I already have like 20 replies it might not be a good idea to restart the contest.

[MIJB#19]

Man, I sucked, I was totally lost in this one.
I even mentioned Lost... for the wrong question...
