Turning technology from mumbo-jumbo into rich tasty gumbo
« September 2012 | Main | December 2012 »
By now, the truth is known. I’m a two-time wonder, not a potential Ken Jennings. Playing Jeopardy was a hoot. I came away with (in four months’ time, when they cut the checks) over $30,000, subject to taxes. The money is all allotted already to household and family things, including a trip to Hawaii in the summer.
But it was a memorable and once-in-a-lifetime chance to put my knowledge (and reflexes) to the test!

At this moment, I am the reigning Jeopardy! champion! That may change, but I can’t tell you if and when. For now, I am the champeeeennnn! And I get two extra days since it’s the weekend.
I wrote about my studying prep for The Economist, the overall contestant experience at BoingBoing, and recorded a podcast with The Incomparable about being on the show.
Watch Monday! See what happens.

I’ll be on “Jeopardy!” tonight! The episode was taped in August. I can’t tell you how I did on this or any potential future episode. You’ll have to watch and see. Check your local listings…
