Lisa was in my taping group. I found her to be a very friendly, very classy lady. She was very excited to have her 21st birthday in New York. Sorry to see she didn't do better, but glad to see she seemed to have a good time.

2K: explains why you can only buy hazelnuts in their shell for about 2 weeks in the fall these days. But Trader Joes has them shelled, both roasted & not. I so love hazelnuts.


5K: No blanking idea who played Guardian etc. Weren't all actors waiters at some point? ATA & pray.

10K: wish I knew where Baldwin Village was. Think more recent games were 1st Atlanta games. Am feeling LA but would +1 on this, then 50/50 if still had to.

20K: I knew this cold, & it hurt to see contestant go down w/o lifeline here.
