Spoilered on Paddington, no vote.
could not pull Casals, answered "wars against replacement"
had thoracic & lumbar, of course I couldn't get cervical.

got thoracic and lumber, of course I blanked on cervical....

French name + Russia +1812 = pure WECIB.

Grumble....thought WAR was wins against replacement.
No chance in Hell, Heaven or any other dimension of coming up with FJ.

Is that -$7200 the lowest anyone's ever gone on Jeopardy?

don't know, but I'm pretty sure that would've been the lowest while ending with a positive score if Dan had gotten 'gizzard'.

How can you ring in "a tad early"?
Instaget FJ!, and if the Mexicans want to celebrate my birthday, that's their business

Derped Psycho, had Rhine and Oder. Thought Danube was too far south.
Woulda guessed Tashkent but wouldn't pull the trigger unless I was desperate.
"The Red Eminence" for Richelieu should be a Pavlov.

Somehow on 3 F's, for the White House clue, my mind went right in the gutter with " What is

Thank you. Good night.

Guessed Rhine & Oder for FJ.

How is 'atmos' a TS? Pure 100% WECIB.
Julia Ward Howe was another easy TS.
FJ: iron > ferrum > Ferrari. Done.

MacAlpin > Scotland > Stone of Scone. Done.

Instagot Grendel, looked at the clue for 30 seconds thinking "It can't be that easy, can it?".

Red Sorrel was my only miss, guessing animal. I actually thought it to be a horse.
It helps to be of a certain age to have actually heard X.
Tombaugh was all I needed for Pluto.
There are people who don't pronounce the l in balm?

FJ was pure WECIB, giving 5/5 for the week.

I wept when the contestants could not get Motley Crue, Led Zeppelin or Aerosmith. Given that, no surprise they couldn't ID Midnight Oil as Australian. Disappointed that Ladies from Hell weren't IDed with Scotland.

Thought first of Beijing for FJ, corrected after ten seconds.

Just having Tombaugh should've been sufficient. Spotting the Underworld made it teen level.
Good near comeback by Prairie Rose.

Oliver Twist kept me from getting the 5/5.
Timothy Leary, no chance at all even given Nieman Marcus, Aeroflot.
I answered Hercules, and my high school put on a Brigadoon production while I was there.

Instaget once I saw the pic.

Derped FJ. Translated as "pick a random Dickens novel" for me. Could thieves' gangs be interpreted as mob violence? went with Oliver Twist

anyone not from the coasts (except the Gulf) & anyone not in the usual professions.
