Ya, good luck!!!

Also, I hope my local station airs today's show.

I was really confused the last two days because after I watched the show on Wednesday and checked the transcripts I did a "huh?". Then when watching the show yesterday it was deja vu!!! It was the same show as Wednesday. Turns out they showed the 5/8 show both days!!!

I did not miss a question from yesterday's show---I knew them all. :lol:

I didn't get a chance to watch this morning so no teasers from me.
Suitguy is not bitter.

feels he represents the many educated and rational onlookers who believe that the hysterical denouncement of lay scepticism is both unwarranted and counter-productive

The problem, then, is that such calls do not address an opposition audience so much as they signal virtue. They talk past those who need convincing. They ignore actual facts and counterargument. And they are irreparably smug.

A one-line notice in this column gives us sunflower's real name--just in case there are more than one contestant from East Hartford on the show today! :wink:

I was waiting for her as the last contestant. I guess that she was the first. :(

I enjoyed watching your show sunflower.

I think you will see more comments once your transcript is posted.

I think your boyfriend owes you big time for the "exposure" he got with you in the hotseat. :)

How/where did you and PAF jen meet? Or just friends from way back?

I think the emoticon reflects Appa's feeling over missing her appearance and is not a critique of her performance.

Congrats to sunflower

Apparently he missed her appearance, so there is no way he could be critiquing her. I didn't take it that way.

Sorry if I implied that I did.

I can take this! We met at a party through several degrees of mutual friends a few weeks after my episode aired. She and her boyfriend were inspired to try to get on the show, and Sunflower practically walked right on. The mutual friends put us in touch so I could giver her some advice, and I ended up stepping in as PAF when she got held over to another week. But we have definitely become friends from all of this!

That is what has come for so many of us as well.

It's even better than the money.

We were very excited that my boyfriend made it on the show too. A lot of stuff was edited out, so I think we're lucky they kept him in. It's just too bad they took out the part where Meredith said he was cute!

Anyway, he was (and is) an endless source of support and threw me the best party ever on Friday! He managed to score a ton of WWTBAM promo stuff and had some for me and a raffle for the people at the party. It was cool.

And Jen explained it very well...I'm very glad that I met her and we became friends. Now we'll always have millionaire in common...if only I could master that game at the beach with the metal washers though!! :wink:
