I get a "not found" link, and doing a search for "Deal or No Deal" on the site turned up nothing either.

Then click on the link.  Don't do a non-Henke.

As I did earlier, which did not work.  Obviously, the post was edited, making me wish all the more it was automatically inserted.

Interesting question on this application that they don't ask on the NBC.com one...

"Can you rollerblade?"

Is rollerblading popular in Des Moines?

What the hell does this have to do with a game show?

Living 50 miles from the town for most of my life, I doubt it.
We're more interested in tossing cow chips.

Driving a Hummer.

I would make time to watch that. Not for the game, the pony, the rollerblading or the Hummer, but for the demise of Celine Dion.

Still love the show, just angry at the endurance test they put me through for virtually nothing.

I will gently point out that this is the HARDEST thing they ask of you. If you get on the show, you don't have to eat blended-up frogs or have bugs and worms poured on you, you don't have to walk a tightwire or live on an island without food and water, you don't even have to know the answer to so much as a single trivia question. All you have to do, as you said, is stand around and remember never to say a number higher than 26.

And in return you stand about a 90% chance of receiving a six-figure payday. And a guaranteed five figures, unless you're a COMPLETE moron. $2000 an hour for five hours in line. Minimum.

So, yeah, 'scuse me if don't have a lot of sympathy that you had to (and you didn't HAVE to, you CHOSE to) stand in a long line.

You're absolutely right, I was just grouchy after the long wait and I needed a place to vent.

I'm deleting my post, it was just a whiny rant. I offer my apologies for saying all that and I appreciate you setting me straight.
