What is not Fed Ex?
Just like The Star Wars Empire's domination, Mugatu's evil model empire, and the use of explotion welding on pipelines all came to an end. another epic reigh has come to an end almost 6 months after starting. No im not talking about a song on a countdown show, but a Mr. Ken Jennings from a little show called Jeopardy. so as november came to a close, so did KJ dominating steak on jeopardy. winning 74 times, answering (questioning accually???) ove 2700 questions (figured it out: Giving over 2700 correct responces), winning $2,520,700 (i think plus a $2000 runner up prize for appearance 75).
Ian's Opinion WOW. that is one thing i can say. this guy is not only a genious, but a well rounded genious. it takes still to win that many games. and in the winning alot of the time we was basically walking over everyone else. Sadly i only got to see him a couple of times, the brodcast and my timing never seemed to line up, which is sad because jeopardy is a great show and Alex a great host. And i have to add that KJ is a software ENGINEER. KJ's affect on Jeopardy? I think he gave it a boost that will help carry the show for a while. A little while ago Jeopardy doubled there prize money to attract more people or something. But nothing will (or did) bring in the people like 74 wins by one person. One of the people i was talking to said that the question (answer) "Most of this firm’s 70,000 seasonal white-collar employees work only four months a year" will be showing up in trivial pursuit and the equivalents in 5 to 10 years. I beleive that we have crossed an epic moment in tv game shows that we have not seen since, im sad to say, the first survivor.
Summing up the Rambling Good job Ken, you rule. Alex and the rest of Jeopardy, keep up the good work.

I still have to say I like the SNL version of jeopardy better.... so many favourites... like Trebec:"Is the tea hot, or cold?"... Keanu:"is it ICED tea?" ...Trebec: "No, it's HOT tea." ...Keanu: "Well, then, I have no idea." And Sean Connery is awesome. Ahhh... so funny.
