I'll drop a helpful hint to all the non-soccer hooligans among the Bored: If they ask the same question about the World Cup, then the answer would be C-One Month.

Good grief! At least he didn't llama.

I can't imagine the Olympics lasting a month-2 weeks was plenty long enough for me to watch on TV.

I always say that quiz show contestants can NEVER know too much about the Olympics...poor Jim, he was obviously a smart guy who said "Final answer" too soon...

It just seems like ten years.

LOL.

The worst 3 seconds of his life was just after Meredith told him he was wrong. I wondered if he was going to lose it right there in the chair.

I believe he is from Clayton, NJ, which probably makes him a WE®. He's also MAWGish® looking... and I think he had on a blue shirt, too.

Can't blame TDC® on this one.

Nihil obstat®

My hat's off to people like this - we have a friend who does this and it's a real blessing.

It's a nihil obstat® stack.
