She had one of the easiest stacks I've seen in a while. I would have needed a lifeline-perhaps ATA first and if I didn't get good results, a JTQ, on the Brad Garrett Pixar question. Did they forget to ask HIM that one when he was on Celebrity Week?

I knew the Phantom of the Opera question. I've seen the play on Broadway (the one and only time I was in NYC, way back in 1997) and I have the CD with Michael Crawford singing the title role. Maybe she should buy a ticket to see it with her $1K prize money.

I was waiting for "D. Weasel words" to come up. Euphemisms will do fine . . .

By an odd coincidence a "clip show" of "Wait, Wait, Don't Tell Me" that I heard on Sunday featured Jim Gaffigan. Apparently his career took off because of his "Hot Pockets" routine.

OK, he was Dim in "A Bug's Life", Gusteau in "Ratatouille" and Bloat in "Finding Nemo". So that only leaves "Cars".

There's only one answer with a "D", so it has to be the one.
