I probably expected this, but I lol'd anyway.

That depends on whether we're talking IIHF rules or Bettman rules.

For many the solution would be as easy as walking up a flight of stairs. ;)

Not for me...I moved out of their house in 1989!  :)

Not sure if this deserves its own thread, so I thought I'd stick it here...

Meredith Vieira was on Live with Regis and Kelly on Wednesday; anyone see it?  I am curious to know what Regis thought of this season's changes...

I'd classify not being able to choose Richard Dawson as additional risk.

With Week 1 of WWTBAM syndie season nine in the time capsule, $51150 has been awarded to the contestants for those five shows. This figure includes the $1000 consolation money for the players who lost their banks but not the cash earned by the current player since his game hasn't been completed. For those of you who keep track of such things, how does this compare with average non-special event weeks of the syndicated edition of the program in previous seasons?

At least Patricia Heaton isn't on the docket for this. Her alone could take the six days. I'm booked all next week when the show plays anyhow. This just means I don't have to worry about setting the VCR. Stupid celebrity "special" crap. I hate it.

There is no extra help for the celebrities.

There is a 10k minimum for the celebs, though.

And now that I've seen it, there's enough aesthetically different to me that I can't call it Millionaire.  Game's okay, though

Is the any place (other than the daily airing) where you can view the Millionaire episodes? YouTube and www.millionairetv.com don't have it and my VCR is on the fritz.

The new format DEFINITELY makes it harder for civilians to win, much less celebs. Hey, sometimes the truth isn't pretty.
