• Threve

  I know I will embarass her with this entry, but I am SO PROUD of my friend T who was recently on Jeopardy!

  
  

  Unfortunately, she didn't win, but still... to be able to get on!  Even just looking at the board, sitting quietly at my desk, I couldn't answer most of them... so I can't imagine doing it in a studio, racing against other players...

  
  

  This brings me to one of the most hilarious Will Ferrell skits on SNL where he plays Alex Trebeck.  Will is perfect as Alex, but funnier still are the celebrity guests - the guy from Third Rock; Burt Reynolds; and Sean Connery. 

  
  

  Burt decides to change his name to Turd Ferguson and won't answer Alex unless he is addressed by his new name.
  The guy from Third Rock (French) gives the following answer to "this is made from mustard seeds"...  "the answer, of course, is ONIONS".????? 

  
  

  Then in final Jeopardy, Alex asks them to each write a number, and French writes "threve". 

  
  

  Who thinks of these things?  So funny.
