Transcript 03/06/14 - Julie Leinhauser

#1 Post by BBTranscriptTeam » Sat Mar 08, 2014 2:28 pm

Julie Leinhauser
Philadelphia, PA

Julie is a 23-year-old musician who has performed all over the world. Julie is also a member of one of Philadephia's mummer parade bands, which plays every New Year's. As such, she's brought her hat (a foot tall, glittery purple policeman's hat), thinking Cedric might like to wear it. Cedric says he actually has worn that hat already, on his publicity tour for Millionaire. We see photos of him wearing it on Live with Michael and Kelly, Steve Harvey, and Jimmy Kimmel. Cedric does not wear it again, now.

On the face of it, a question about what's not even an new law but just a proposed new law in a single city is ridiculously obscure, but in that case you've got to consider the obvious choice. Which of those things might you buy on impulse and then not be able to get rid of, if you later have remorse about it?

I like the idea for lottery tickets, but that's a source of government revenue, so don't expect any consumer protection there. To make it easier, I'd allow the ticket to be sold immediately, but only after consumers have accurately written down the correct expected value of their $1 purchase. :twisted:

I don't understand the timing of this. Did she bring the hat to her audition, for the APs to bring to Cedric as a gift, and did TPTB decide to have him wear it on his publicity tour after they decided to cast her as a contestant but before she taped her episode? Will this be a new auditioning ploy, bringing some tacky gift for Cedric that might catch their fancy?

Tattoo seems the obvious choice, and I vacillated between it and mortgage before I finally said "Ugh!"

A 24-hour waiting period on a mortgage? Do you know how much paperwork you have to fill out and how long you already have to wait to get a mortgage approved? :shock:

How could any law be proposed by "Washington, D.C."? I can see how some individual or advocacy group might propose the law in Washington, D.C., or to a Washington, D.C. government agency, but Washington, D.C. itself is not capable of proposing anything. And even if it was, who was Washington proposing it to?

It's been a while, but I don't recall the procedure being particularly onerous. When it comes to signing on the dotted line, maybe some folkses would benefit from a one-day cooling off period. I dunno, that's why I vacillated. Remember that it was the mortgage bubble bursting that sent us into that last economic tailspin.

Maybe the banks needed an extra 24-hour waiting period, back then, but I thought they had tightened up on things since then. It's been a long time since I got my mortgage, but when I sold my parent's house in 2012, the buyers had to show up at the closing about half an hour earlier than I did, just so they could start signing all the papers that came with the mortgage.

So, now that you've signed your name a hundred times, come back tomorrow and write next to each of those signatures, "I really mean it. Really, really." :lol:

I thought her $100K question was very easy. Prescription drugs usually have tongue-twister names that nobody can pronounce or spell, so they need names that are easier for non-doctors to remember.

As for the rest of the stack:

1. easy.

2. easy.

3. JTQ 1-I doubt the audience would know this (it turned out they didn't)

4. easy-you can't get rid of a tattoo very easily.

5. easy.

6. very easy-my dad was a doctor, so I SHOULD know this one!

7. easy. I saw this in London way back in 1989 with the original cast. It's a very good play, if you ever get the chance to see it.

8. I first thought this was a WWOQ, but then I read the choices and realized that C was the only mammal listed-and mammals have wombs.

9. easy.

10. easy.

$100K-easy (see above)

$250K-I use my ATA here. It's pop culture, and they might give me a decent percentage.
I'm just a game show nerd.
