That's "tater" - with an "e". Oddly enough one of the contestants on Monday's DoND was a woman from Kentucky who said that she had been "Tater Day Queen".

I thought they were looking for "friction". When the answers came up I had to stop and think for a moment.

The 8K question did give me momentary pause.

8K: OK, the shame for this contestant in this one is its presumed to be a "guy" type of Q. However, I'm not a guy, & I knew it. Whatever.

USE YOUR LIFELINES, FOLKS. THEY DO NO GOOD JUST HANGING THERE.
