I guessed the right answer from my recliner but in the HS I'd be using ATA because I have no idea.

There was a flood two floors above her that caused $15-20K of damage in her condo. When WWTBAM called, she had a hard time hearing them since the fans were on drying the place to prevent mold.

Wouldn't insurance cover a lot of that - either theirs or the insurance of the person in whose condo the flood started?

A rare dream stack. All my LLs left heading into the upper tier.

The album question is undervalued IMO, because of the age of the album and the fact that MAWGs are not the favored casting demographic. Great album, though.

[Kazoo65]

$8K-ATA.

$25K-ask KJ. He might know this.

At least they chose a better expert for yesterday than Billy Bush. I doubt he knows much other than pop culture.

Being a car aficionado, I knew the $25K question cold. The claimed top speed of the McLaren F1 is actually 231 mph, rather than 230 as Meredith said, although it's only actually gone about 220. Still an incredible car.
