-- Commercial Break --

She's living in NYC now, so she's a WE/WE.



Good for you, Reege, remembering the full name of the show, even if Meredith never says it!



I bet you'd still remember the name of the Phone A Friend lifeline!

I was not a fan of this girl... an incredibly annoying game to watch.

Thank you transcribers. The local storm knocked my power out for minute, & I thought I had everything fixed in the 2 seconds before I had to take off for work, but obvously I did not.

so far so good

LOL. Reege still has his sense of humor, although he kinda dropped the ball here. Funny, though.

However, I, too, really wish the PAF would return to the show. The game ain't the same without it.

WE/WE®


There's a naughty joke here, but I can't quite put my finger on it...

Nihil obstat®

Then despite the graphic she's a WE/WE® and engaged to a WE®.

What else could it be from those four?

Well, despite his assertion to the contrary, Gelman does know celebrities. And Liz did, too, once she realized what SJP stood for.

This is what I love about Regis - he says what he thinks and they don't edit it out.

She didn't associate "Tombstone" with Wyatt Earp? Ah, well...nihil obstat®.
