Re: Monday, November 27, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
in terms of 23 psalms to be fair to them the other ones had hints in the first did not. I understood why and it is a famous verse but it is a fair thing to mess up. (I know I am going to be so attacked for this) Quite possibly if they had started at the top one of them would have gotten it. My wife...

The 'tortellini' pictured are actually cappelletti. (Italian for 'little hats', so not what the clue was asking for.)

No Jeopardy in the NY market tonight due to Monday Night Football. Will air sometime in the middle of the night. First pre-emption this MNF season in NY. Here I am, running through what my DVR recorded on Channel 7 last night. They ran a promo at the end of the Kelly and Mark rerun to say Wheel of ...

It may be on at 2:05am, but the timing of overnight shows are often different than advertised. An article referenced by WABC-TV, listing times fo...

Re: Season 40 Preemptions
WABC-TV Channel 7 noted at the start of the football coverage that tonight's Jeopardy! would be shown sometime overnight tonight. My DVR looks for new episodes of Jeopardy! and has already set up to tape Jeopardy! at 2:05am. But, in the past, the starting time of TV shows overnight are often differe...

Re: Season 40 Preemptions
Tonight, Monday, Sept 25th, the Monday Night Football on WABC Channel 7 in NYC will be starting at 7pm, displacing Jeopardy!. Perhaps they will show the episode in the overnight slot or on ABC localish on Channel 110 on Optimum. I haven't found anything about the per-emption on the WABC 7 website yet.

Re: Fun with GSN's "Master Minds"
How is 40 days after Easter a Thursday? I'm assuming the clue was about the feast of the Ascension? It's the fortieth day of Eastertide, with Easter Sunday counting as day 1. In our modern way of reckoning time, that would make it the 39th day after . Older systems often used the word "after&q...

Re: Fun with GSN's "Master Minds"
In the comfort of home easy chair, somehow 96 holes popped into my head.
But I quickly remembered the LIV events with less holes than the PGA events and LIV = 54 and got 72 in time.
Let's not talk about other answers I did or didn't come up with to other questions!

That's not how Mercury looks to humans! I didn't even recognize it. From NASA: This colorful view of Mercury was produced by using images from the color base map imaging campaign during MESSENGER's primary mission. These colors are not what Mercury would look like to the human eye, but rather the co...

Anyone else read all the Tom Swift Jr. books when you were growing up? Couldn't wait for the next one to arrive. I even built a small home-made book case to hold them (cardboard & baling wire). My father had a collection of the original Tom Swift books, which I read, and that got me into the TS...

Re: Wednesday, June 14, 2023 Game Recap and Discussion (SPOILERS)
Looking at it from the Cold War spy angle, I was certain the FJ answer was Illya Kuryakin, but maybe The Man From U.N.C.L.E. is too obscure. Oh well… I jumped to UNCLE. Too early for the date in the clue, but I was so excited I forget everything I ever knew about Chekov. Including the Davy Jones an...

This is why baseballs travel farther in hot, humid weather. There is less drag in the less dense humid air.

In "A 'mid' category" A:It describes air heavy with water vapor Q: What is humid? Correct response. But, the more water vapor in the air, the less dense the air is, since a molecule of water (H2O) is has less mass than the mixture of nitrogen and oxygen molecules it displaces. No effect on...

The UN was earlier, so I figured NATO. Disturbed by the wording of the clue: NATO is an organization; the pact was the North Atlantic Treaty. You're disturbed?? That's exactly what the clue says! ...the 1949 pact that formed this ... Oh, oh. Yes, disturbed for sure! So focused on the 'pact' part. T...

For FJ, my wife and I thought of the "Great green room", but Goodnight Moon was 47 years later.
