Pettiest of pet peeves -- when movie studios and theaters heavily advertise a movie, but then do not show it in any theaters within several hundred miles of me. There are several of the theaters near me (Regal), but none of them has Cyrano. They did the same thing with Licorice Pizza, too. Meanwhile, though, they are still showing Sing 2. So annoying!

I can't believe I missed FJ tonight. I just couldn't get my brain engaged, but I knew it would be so obvious after I saw the correct response. Indeed, it was. I said the Flintstones, but knew it was so incredibly, horribly wrong wrong wrong. The only TS I got were ethics, on an even keel, bulkhead, and The Jeffersons. And we got another genre from Ken!

Saved!

I simultaneously miss and don't miss all the airport drama.

OMG, Arun, she's breaking the plates just fine!

Three hours is a long damn time to be flipping rocks.

Hay bales, red coffee beans, and there was an artifact in a sand box in Egypt, wasn't there, that required a field elimination?

Wasn't he the one with the lantern? No idea what the jar is all about.

Oh, Arun, you're so funny!

Red Light, Green Light with plates! Heck yeah, I'd smash plates -- get out all the frustration from the stones.

Arun almost missed that in his haste. Glad he was paying attention!

And Kim finally turned over that stone she had her hand on so many times!

I don't think she turned that one over. They all seem to be concentrating on the flat stones and ignoring the non-flat ones.

Nice catch by the camera operator! How many times did Kim touch the coin stone?

And everyone's there.

Thessaloniki was founded in 315 BC, so yeah, a couple thousand years.

Kim, you will never find the coin if you just stand there. Unless you have x-ray vision.

Why didn't any of them stop and ask directions before they left? But at least it looks like no one was just blindly following another team.

Oh, rats! I wanted to see the hotels they chose.

Yay, more self-driving! Are those the same cars from the last leg?

Finally got around to watching this, while I wait for TAR to start. FJ for the first game was an instaget, but I had no idea for the second. Most likely because I stopped giving the game my full attention. Seriously way too much Jeopardy, especially since I was catching up on the regular show from last night, too. I got several TS, too. Game 1: jousting, Univac, Cassiopeia, and haste makes waste Game 2: Sonic the Hedgehog, cockapoo, beehives, and Golden Spike Congrats to Jaskaran! He played a great game. I was surprised that Raymond didn't do better the first game, since he was such a powerhouse in his other games, but second place is nothing to sneeze at. I liked them all would would have been happy with any one of them winning. However, I hope they never ever do another tournament with this format again. The regular way of tournaments is so much better!

Oh, yeah, the tiebreaker was an instaget for me, too. "In Flanders fields...."

Instaget FJ for me tonight. @JudyObscure is correct. Jeopardy loves that play. I also got the TS of horologist, raisins (the devil's candy), and Sri Lanka. Genre! Nice try, Ken!

You were lucky! My first time behind the wheel was on a four-lane highway, then I had to turn off on a tiny little rural road that was about a lane and a half wide. I think my driver's ed teacher hated me, too. At one point, she had me drive down an even tinier road that dead-ended. She wanted me to make a three-point turn to turn around, but it ended up being about a 49-point turn because the road was so narrow. We never practiced in a parking lot, and I remember one girl who, when handed the key, looked at it and genuinely asked what she was supposed to do with it.

We thought it was great, too. 10th grade was the last grade we were required to take PE, and we were all ready not to have to change into gym clothes any more! Our parents thought it was great because they didn't have to pay for private lessons.
