MG Round 1 Question B
Doug: Brian, let's see how you do with B. (grabs "B"; walks to panel)
Doug: B says... If Dr. Seuss heard this, he'd be turning over in his grave: This year, they've re-done his holiday classic. It's now titled, "The Grinch who Stole << BLANK >>"
(J! think music plays)
Doug: OK, Brian. John had a big first round. Let's see what you can do. Here's the question again... If Dr. Seuss heard this, he'd be turning over in his grave: This year, they've re-done his holiday classic. It's now titled, "The Grinch who Stole << BLANK >>" Brian: < Aplha 5 > Critical Information Overload, Overload. < /A5 > (audience laughs) (Doug looks puzzled) Sorry about that, I think it's Santa Claus. (audience applause) Doug: Santa. A good answer. However, as I looked over this question, I think there's a real jewel of an answer. We'll see what happens. Mark we start with you. Mark: It's going to be one of THOSE shows, isn't it... :) Doug: Eh, ya never know what's gonna happen here. Judge may do something real crazy like dance the macarena. (audience laughs) Mark: Well. I honestly think that Dr. Seuss would be more upset about who the Grinch was rather than what he stole. So I said that the retitled it The Grinch who Stole (flip) ***NPIR*** (buzz) Doug: Ya know, Mark, you're right. This *is* going to be one of those shows. (audience laughs) Jay, what did you think the Grinch stole? Jay: Hmmm...this one seems tough. I heard that they renamed the characters for bigger promotional tie-ins. Little Cindy Lou Yahoo! who lives in WhoWhereville saw the Grinch steal... +-----------+ | THE STOCK | | MARKET | | IPOS | +-----------+ (buzz) (audience boos) Jay: I hear you booing out there. I have some doo-doo left over from that last question and I'm not afraid to use it! (audience laughs) C'mon, I'll take ya all on! One at a time or all at once, it doesn't matter! (audience laughs and applauds) Doug: Feel better now? Jay: Oh yeah. Doug: Good. (audience laughs) What R hopefully can match Brian? Maybe Robert Rosko. What say ye? Robert: Since I am in Charles' old seat(not technically, but you know), he usually gives some kinda weird response every now and then, so I am gonna refer back to my first question's answer, and The Grinch Stole... +--------------+ | LITTLE ROTTEN| | RODNEY'S | | | +--------------+ +--------------+ | WET LUMP OF | | DOG DOO | | | +--------------+ (buzz) (boo-birds at it again) Robert: I don't mind getting a couple boos, but please don't throw things. I don't like things thrown at me. :) Doug: Ya know, maybe if you'd ask 'em to throw money, they might do it. :) (audience laughs) Well, let's see if another R can match Brian. No one's come to my answer, yet. Question again, if Dr. Seuss heard this, he'd be turning over in his grave: This year, they've re-done his holiday classic. It's now titled, "The Grinch who Stole..." what, Ryan? Ryan: This was the only thing I could think of.... +--------------+ | The Election | +--------------+ (buzz) (audience cheers) Doug: Now *that's* what I thinking. The election. Maybe even Florida. As of this typing, George W. Bush has been certified the winner in the Sunshine State and Al Gore's still challenging the results in court. In any event, Matt, did you write down Santa? Matt: I said that the Grinch stole +----------------+ | Mrs. Claus | +----------------+ (audience groans) Doug: Wait! Wait! The judge hasn't ruled yet! (buzz) OK, now he has. (pause; judge explains the situation offstage) Oh, the buzzer button wasn't working. Eh, that's they all say. (audience laughs) Sir Keith, ya got Santa for us? Keith: Tough question. But I guess round one questions are harder, right Doug? Doug: More often than not, yes. Keith: The Grinch originally stole Christmas, so I think this time, the Grinch would steal HANUKKAH (buzz) Doug: To all of our Jewish friends watching, send mail to Keith Butkovich in care of VBS Cybervision City. (audience laughs) Well, let's review the answers, shall we?NPiR | STOCK MARKET IPOs | ...DOG DOO
THE ELECTION | MRS. CLAUS | HANUKKAH
Doug: And one round's in the books. John leads 400 to nothing and I have developed a thirst for eggnog. Anyone care to join me? (panel, players and half the crew raise their hands) (audience laughs) Good, meet me in the break room. We'll be back in a moment. (audience applause; MG-HSH music plays)MG ROUND 2 BEGINS
