Alas, ended on a whimper more than a bang. 2/5, no *. Thanks for the season, everyone!

2/5, neither *. More filled with shame that I failed to get the Talking Heads question than anything else; damn, I just rewatched Stop Making Sense in a theater last year!

Week 44: 4/5. Came so very very close to going with Nigeria as my guess on Thursday, but two five out of five weeks in a season would mean the world is ending, so it's probably for the best.

Well, that was a fast comedown from a good week to a normal one. 2/5, not the *.

Oh, my. It's that brief window of the year when all five FJs in a week make me think I'd be better at this game than I traditionally ever am. 5/5, * included. I'll revert to my former semi-competence shortly, just gonna bask and say things like 'I could totally be a jeopardy champion!' for the next few days.

Week 41: definite 2/5 (Polo & Doppler) and a potential third with the *, if and only if 'Mrs. Joyce' would be considered an acceptable answer. (Probably not.) Knew it was her, didn't know her first name.

Week 40- 3/5.

Week 39: 3/5, no *.

...throw River in there for extra kicks.

Week 38: 2/5, no *, back to normal after my heady heights of last week.

Week 37, late results: 4/5! I'll take it. (Guessed Cape Verde on the Countries Languages category. Was wrong, but at least one of the finalists guessed it too, so that eases the sting a bit.)

Week 36, 3/5, no *. I also should get points deducted from my to-date total as a penalty for not getting Mystic River, growing up near Boston as I did...

4/5, with the *. Yes, somehow I, a child of the 80's, missed the Cabbage Patch clue but managed to stumble upon Rigoletto Libretto at the last possible second.

Nice and simple week. 0/5!

Getting in my week 33 score before week 34 is completed tomorrow... Week 33: 2/5, one *. (Hindenburg and Zora Neale Hurston. Came close on Nashville, but shouted 'Memphis' instead. Whoops.)

ooop, fell behind by a week. OK, catching up: week 31: a (for me) rare 4/5, with the *. week 32- a much more common 3/5, but with one (not both) *.

Week 30: 2/5. Came so very close on Sacramento and discarded it for some reason.

2/5, no *. (Ukraine was, in fact, my own downfall, Clanstarling.)

week 28: 2/5. Oh, lookit that, a positive number!

It's another 0/5 for me for week 27. At least the ToC is over and we can return to our regularly scheduled not so crazy hard questions?

Better than the last two weeks, at least: 1/5, with an *(team Aeschylus!)

Another 0/5 week. Donuts have been done for zeros. Cheerios, anybody?

Week 24: ow, bad week. 0/5. I'm... just gonna sit over here with a glass of ice water and think about what I've done.

Week 23, 3/5, with the *, since 'St. Louis Arch' seems to be an acceptable answer and that's all I had. Given that, my choice of food contribution seems obvious.

Week 22: 2/5 (again), but at least with an * (Lighthouse) to salve my pride. Well, that and donuts. But you gotta get your protein in, too. so...
