Since there seems to be a bit of interest around here (not by everyone, I know, but by some) in my appearance on Jeopardy!, I thought perhaps some folks might like a break from the pre-election hubbub for a daily memoir ... hmmm, does that give away that, say, I was on for more than one day? You'll have to see for yourself! I'm sworn to secrecy ... although you can watch my promo online if you want.
Anyway, I'll say at the outset that being on Jeopardy! was a terrific experience. The crew couldn't have been more supportive and helpful, and they really made sure everyone had a good time. What was truly remarkable, though, was the camaraderie among the contestants. I've heard it described as kind of a "hostage mentality," where everyone bonded due to their shared stressful experiences.
Mostly, though, I went to L.A. just wanting to have a good time, and I think I definitely achieved that. Join me below the fold for more, or see the article about my Jeopardy! experience in today's Palm Beach Post ...
