Damn it Seawolf. Now I have to try to figure out how to work the VCR, which I haven't used in years, before tomorrow night. I have a feeling this will turn out to be a job for my son.

Nah, as long as he goes down with grace and aplomb. If he rings in and comes up blank, and instead of remaining silent he blurts out, "Who is Agbayani?" he gets kisses from me. And, special bonus, if he makes that play on Final JeopardyTM, I will welcome him to my bedchamber.

Unbelievable. The local ABC affiliate isn't carrying Jeopardy tonight, because they have special coverage of Raleigh Winterfest. The city of Raleigh built a huge outdoor skating rink (ala Rockefeller Plaza) for the first time this year. So instead of watching Seawolf on Jeopardy, I'm stuck watching little kids skating while local news reporters count down to the lighting of the city Christmas tree at 8:00 PM. 74 damn channels on cable and I can't stinking watch one episode of Jeopardy. Springsteen was right.

Two things: One: How many military questions were there? What bullshit! Two: The colonel was simply faster on the buzzer. Of course he was! Air Force dude selected for his reflexes and trained in his reflexes. Sheryl Silverstein is still twitching for the button in her sleep as we speak. Poor chick. Brilliant mind but a stupid thumb.

The thing I didn't hear in the whole program (noise in the room) was the one you wound up getting flagged for. What was the Q&A there (or, I guess, the A&Q to be accurate)?

Great blog entry. I was totally wondering why you didn't get to answer the 'barrel' question. As I mentioned before, I tried the on-line test, and after taking it I felt like a total dumbass for days, so I have nothing but respect for you making it onto the show and doing as well as you did. Nice job! Now go back to work and admit all those football players my alma mater just gave the gate.

99th Air Base Wing Public Affairs
12/2/2009 - NELLIS AIR FORCE BASE, Nev. (AFNS) -- The answer: This commander from Nellis Air Force Base hopes to exhibit a high-flying level of knowledge on one of America's favorite quiz shows.
"Who is Col. Dave Belote?" would be the proper response, as the 99th Air Base Wing commander appeared on "Jeopardy!" that will air Dec. 2.
Appearing on the game show has been a lifelong dream for Colonel Belote.
"I've wanted to be on the show for at least 20 years," Colonel Belote said. "I've tried sending postcards any time the show did a contestant search nearby. I took the online test the last two years, and it made it a lot easier to get invited for a contestant audition."
No studying was required for Colonel Belote. He brought his "life knowledge" to the show.
"There has been no time for any kind of studying, other than watching the occasional 'Jeopardy!' episode," Colonel Belote said. "My best subjects are history, government and world events."
The colonel said he's excited to represent the Air Force and hopes to win some money for his retirement fund and future sailboat.
"Everybody who gets to this point is going to be good," Colonel Belote said. "I hope to catch a couple of breaks. I'm fired up! I want to have fun and maybe win enough money to take the family someplace tropical and exotic. I'd rather be lucky than good any day, and I have a mind for trivia, so hold on for a great ride!"
"Jeopardy!" has been on the air for 26 years. More than 5,800 episodes have aired to date, and the show has 12 million daily viewers.
