Re: 2024 Jeopardy! Invitational Tournament

I just read a tweet by Dan Pawson that said that he would be in the JIT airing "later this month". Does this mean that it will air right after the TOC is done? Will we finally get back to regular season after this tournament?

I wasn't familiar with it as Fleetwood Mac, but I knew Miley covered it and gambled based on the lyric.
The (Dixie) Chicks had a big hit with it also.

Re: 2024 RIP thread

I just got a notification that Iris Apfel, the designer, has died at the age of 102. The name didn't sound familiar but when I saw her picture, I recognized her. I would describe her as an older white-haired woman with oversized black glasses. I looked to see if she was in the J! canon and she was i...

My reasoning for why FJ! was not Ho Chi Minh was that they wouldn't have changed the name of Saigon to Ho Chi Minh City if he had been overthrown.

A couple of months ago on Twitter/X, I got a recommendation to follow TPH. I don't know how that suggestion came about.

The boxing question was definitely too hard. I thought Rocky Marciano because I think he gained weight to fight in different classes. Just an FYI, Marciano was always a heavyweight. I'm not a boxing fan, but recognized Sugar Ray Robinson... and *miiiight* have nailed it without the multiple weight ...

On the opposite end of the spectrum, I had to enter my birthdate on my phone today. I had to scroll through starting at 2022 and going back to the 1950s. I felt like I was on a slot machine.

I thought it had to be rescue instead of rescuee because the category was Ends with 2 Vowels, although technically a word that ends with 3 vowels also ends with 2.

Somehow a tweet of Simi Landau (@MsLandauReads) landed on my twitter feed, and she has her name listed as "Second Chance Simi". Just thought I'd throw that out there. Cory Anotado has done something similar with his Twitter profile. He’s had that pretty much since the 2CT was announced 2-...

You may have to win that fight with the Census Bureau before you take it up with the J! writers.
In the same vein, the University of Michigan's fight song ends with "The champions of the west"
