HS round2(restOFround)
(In order for the webmaster ... read: me ... to catch up, from a recent vacation *AND* covering a hurricane for TV, the rest of this round is presented in an "HTML lite" format. -DM)
Ryan: Kourtney, pick a square. (BZZZ) Ryan: Kourney missed the deadline so now it's time to use the randomizer... (the randomizer button rises out of Ryan's desk and Ryan hit's it) Ryan: The Randomizer picks Martin. (Sign on Martin's chair... Out to lunch) Ryan: Kourney, you get the question... What was the name of Fred Mertz's dog on "I Love Lucy"? Fido Rover Butch Spike Kourney: The answer is Butch. Ryan: Butch is right. Circle gets the Square. [1][X][3] [4][o][o] [X][o][9] X: Michael: Cy$5,500 o: Kourtney: Cy$3,000 (ding; audience applause) Ryan: Michael, pick a square. Michael: Robert for the block. Ryan: Robert, What salary is considered "minimum wage" for a major league baseball player? Robert: Absolute peanuts! (audience laughs) By the way, those seats in the audience right now are literally filled with their shells right now! (audience laughs) Anyway, I believe that $250,000 is the base payout for a baseball player. Michael: I disagree. Ryan: "Minimum wage" for a major league baseball player is $200,000 a year. X gets the square. [1][X][3] [X][o][o] [X][o][9] X: Michael: Cy$6,000 o: Kourtney: Cy$3,000 (ding; audience applause) Ryan: Kourtney, pick a square. Kourtney: I choose Dana to block. Ryan: Dana, What is an opisthenar? Dana: Well, I'm not sure on this one, but it doesn't sound like the back, or an armpit.. and I don't think kneepit is even a word, lol, much less the medical name for the back of the knee. So, that leave me to say it's the back of a human's hand. Kourtney: I agree. Ryan: That's right. Circle gets the square. [o][X][3] [X][o][o] [X][o][9] X: Michael: Cy$6,000 o: Kourtney: Cy$3,500 (ding; audience applause) Ryan: Michael, pick a square. Michael: Nancy. (Sign on Nancy's square: Not here!) Ryan: Michael, Nancy's square is empty. So you get the question, What country has won more total medals at the Winter Olympics than any other nation? Italy Sweden Norway The United States Michael: The answer is Norway. Ryan: Norway is correct. X gets the square. [o][X][3] [X][o][o] [X][o][X] X: Michael: Cy$6,500 o: Kourtney: Cy$3,500 (ding; audience applause) Ryan: Chico, stand by for your question. Chico: I'm here, I'm here!!! Ryan: Chico, here's your question... Saddam Hussein was born on April 28. What late night talk show host was also born on April 28? Chico: That would be Jay Leno, and his weapon of mass obstruction *points to his chin*. Kourtney: Ryan, I agree. Ryan: It's Jay Leno. Circle gets the Square and the 5-Square Win!
