Too bad. Hope to hear from Joe with the new lifeline or something.

"They" are supposed to call him this week with more info.

I think he told them he was available on the 28th of this month to serve as the "new lifeline".

I'm sorry.

I will look forward to the possibility of hearing Joe as SuperPAF, but I would be happier to see you in the hot seat soon, too.

You are in fine company.

Kinda like the company I will be in if there really is a hell and if what BiT says is really true.

Blast it! :evil:

They're probably trying to ensure that Joe won't back out of that Webcam lifeline thingy because of the eligibility rules.

Hi, mellowmom:

Someone told me that you were Joe Trela's mother. I just wanted to let you know my father passed the Millionaire test and thought he did well on the interview, but got the sad card. I think the producers might be wary about letting relatives of big winners on... I vaguely remember another big winner's father also passing the test, but getting the sad card...

My mom (Syndi season two) beat the odds, then again I was a mere $32K winner in season one, and needed two tries (Llamarama) to do so.

There was a daughter who followed a mother on the Bored but IIRC the mother had also won in the $25-32K range.

Feh. They want cache'? They want class? They want good contestants? They should have wanted you.

This is sad news, indeed.
