Chad, did you audition in LV in the morning? I'm pretty sure I saw you there, when you (of course) passed & I did not. I can't wait to see the rest of your appearance tomorrow!! :)

Hi azac. Chad is from Michigan and he auditioned in Chicago.

Hey Uly! Well, once again my absence from the game show world has proven me mistaken. Chad definitely looked familiar to me, but I don't know from where....

Let me add my "welcome back" to you, azac. You look thinner than before (wasn't your handle on the old ABC Bored in all caps)?

You deserve your ATA back, Chad! :mrgreen:

Loved, loved, loved your game. You did SUCH a great job!

Excellent gameplay, and excellent use of lifelines. So proud of you!

There's something I am extremely curious about, Chad. I really hope you'll answer this question:

Anywhere, or at any time - did you mention on a questionnaire or in an interview that you're able to recite the all the U.S. states in alphabetical order? This would be verrrry interesting to know- if a Q fell into your stack that could possibly give you the opportunity to do it, seeing as how entertaining it turned out to be...

Enquiring minds and all... :mrgreen:

Why? Can they explain the etymology of the phrase in any more detail than has already been discussed? That's all I've been trying to clarify. I had no problem recognizing the phrase, myself.

Nope! I didn't even remember that I could do that until a few seconds into my question. That's why it was a sudden transition of thought process. I realized "why am I reasoning it out this way? I know them all!"

I probably would have gone down in flames going with Esquire. If by some chance I did survive that question, though, I'd have been able to sail through the rest of the stack to this point.

I was wondering if they might be BBs. Care to clue us in, Chad?
