This kind of thing pops up now and again. A while back the GOP ran a Jeopardy parody called "Hypocrisy" and received a legal threat from Sony. During the gubernatorial recall election in California, candidate Arianna Huffington used TPIR music on her web site for a while (it was later pulled).

But without making a political comment, I have to ask... Feingold couldn't have come up with something newer than Now You See It?

Was that where that clip came from? I couldn't tell.

Unless I've missed something from not having viewed anything in my collection in a while, it was the 70s version of NYSI.

Indeed it was. But for the bonus, which rules package were they using?

I dunno what "rules package" they were using.

Second, well... there might be a copy of "Who Wants to Be Governor of California? The Debating Game" somewhere around here, plus that clip of Mary Carey winning the competition and the $21,200 grand prize (which I didn't get to see that night, as I came home from my very first dance lesson, which was a day after the new season of "Shop 'Til You Drop" with JD Roberto premiered on Pax).

Oh my, a double case of WHOOSH!

This kid isn't Zach. He's like Zach cubed and then some.

I prefer cubed cheese to cubed Zach.
