In an effort to be as polite as possible it seems rather weak of the cast member to finish that way.

Maybe he can have them reattached when he gets back home...

Dream stack so far. I'd be playing for $50K with all of my lifelines.

Brandeis was from Louisville and the law school at the University of Louisville bears his name.

I couldn't remember whether it was four or five, so I'd have used 50/50 and gone with B when the results were revealed. I wouldn't expect the audience to know this one.

The Anchorage Daily News finally gave David's run a short news blurb...nearly two weeks after it happened.
