I'm not sure anyone was making that distinction, and anyone who did would just be assigning their own arbitrary distinction between two words that are, for all practical purposes, synonymous.

Oops, meant one easy and one difficult.

And an "oops" from me too, for not catching Mike's slip and not understanding what the fuss was about.

** Phylicia Rashad was the other name... missed that one too!

[quote name=\'Jimmy Owen\' post=\'220231\' date=\'Jul 15 2009, 06:52 AM\']How does putting things in order quickly predict how good of a contestant one will be on the actual show?[/quote] It doesn't. It took you nearly ten years to figure that out?

Why not a series of multiple choice questions to qualify?

Because the producers don't want to?

Gave it a shot, and made it to question four.  Once I heard "Arrange the following music tempos...", I knew I was on my way to Screwsville.

Two days ago, I made it to number 5 and was hoping for an easy (easy for me) question...nope, it was books and when they were published.  I can't remember now what they were, but I knew it had to be a guess from me.  I guessed wrong.  And I also used Chad's suggestion.  It helped tremendously with remembering what the four choices were.

Well, my one attempt at this failed at #2...mistakenly assumed that The Weather Channel has been around forever.  Of course, I didn't do any better on the two channels that debuted after I was born (the question was to put cable TV channels in order of launch), and it's not like I ever watched any of the channels in question anyway, so I was pretty much doomed to fail on that one.

I assume those who were expecting a call today didn't get one.

Count me out. There maybe the Pyramid...

I'm officially 0 for 10.  Got to a Question 4 once, and tried to fabrics in order of their invention.  Screwed up when I put microfiber first, before rayon, spandex, and polyester.

I'll be glad to whore myself be useful as a PAF if anyone here gets on.
