Her husband thought Keilani was guessing at the $100,000 question yesterday. But Keilani "reads a lot" and clearly recalled the relevant news article. "You'd be surprised what you know..."

How dare they ask a question about HK!

I doubt that Ashleigh will know this, but I'll ask her, on the off chance that I'll get lucky. More than likely, I'll be quitting.

I am curious if some of our HK fans knew the answer. I certainly did not.

That would have been a nice stack for me. I'd have been looking at the $500,000 question with ATA and DD left.

I would have used the ATE on the Stephen Daedelus question (I read the book back in high school, but I've long since forgotten it- I hated James Joyce's writings) just like she did.

I didn't know the Question on obesity, but given the choices, Colorado made the most sense. I would have gone with it.

I would have PAF'ed on the "Hello Kitty" question...seems Googlable. Although "Kitty White" makes the most sense of all the choices- I wonder if I could have convinced myself to DD instead, saving the PAF for the higher-level questions?

And I actually HAVE a chitarra- we love to make our own pasta (although ours looks more like a harp than a guitar, but it definitely has strings).

Given that Japanese name order is reverse to ours, I figured it was "Kitty White" since Hello Kitty is a white cat. But that's not enough for me to gamble on in the HS. All I have left is ATA so I might as well use it and see if I get lucky. Otherwise, time to walk away.

I would have used the ATE on the Stephen Daedelus question (I read the book back in high school, but I've long since forgotten it- I hated James Joyce's writings) just like she did.

Sorry, Uly!!

It's nothing personal!!

I think just from having read a Wikipedia article on it once or something, I knew "Kitty White" immediately as it came up. For the record, my eleven-year-old sister did as well.
