Re: Tuesday, January 26, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Golf and others like to comment about math and J! players. The clue is as much math as anything. It would be fun to know how Gabriela connected the Madonna song to a possible two more chart appearances. Am the right age that the song in question was right in my wheelhouse. Even so, initially focuse...

Re: Monday, January 25, 2021 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
I'm assuming, by the way, that Montenegro is ruled out only due to its size and not also due to the fact that it borders the Adriatic rather than the Mediterranean? I think of the Adriatic as a subset of the Mediterranean, but maybe I'm wrong. It gets a little dicey there with Adriatic vs. Mediterr...

DD 3/3

Felt a little off my rhythm on these boards. Negged with viejo for añejo - the latest example of where knowing a medium amount of Spanish is worse than knowing none at all.
Managed to reason my way through FJ in about 5-10 seconds.

Sure enough, I'm starting to make progress in those categories wher...
