Tim read the question as if he had a googler on the other end of the line, and this was certainly a slamdunk google question. If that's the case, either the Internet was down that day or his Frat Bro was asleep at the keyboard. :-(

Yeah, I sure thought his PAF would be googling as Tim spelled it. It only takes that single word "hogchoker" to get unmistakable results. Google even displays some images of hogchokers above the text results!

My DVR fixed, I was able to watch this.

I thought there was a screen shot of Tim's lifelines and PAF wasn't among them?

I'd have thought it either a fish or a snake. Use the DD and make those my answers.

No, that screenshot with three lifeline icons was from the first tier, before he got his ATE.
