Article about one of today's SyndieBAM contestants

#1 Post by MarleysGh0st » Thu Dec 13, 2007 10:25 am

Mark Thomas. from Allentown, PA, enters the Hot Seat today.

Thomas calls himself a ''thrifty person,'' and says if he wins big on ''Millionaire'' he will fix his main sewer line and help his wife with a start-up bakery.
Oooh, nobody's said they needed a million to fix a sewer line before!

I note that Allentown gets two doses of CindyBAM - at 12:30 and 4PM on different channels.

Nobody on CindyBAM has won a million (at least not recently?) so it isn't really an issue!

Even a genuine CindyBAM thousandaire might have a tough time getting that sewer line fixed AND open a bakery. Hopefully he is not planning to do both himself.

Or at least washes his hands between jobs...
