I found this over at Sony's Jeopardy board:

2nd post down. I laughed so hard when I saw it!

The physical similarities between that the altered Ken and one of my math professors from this past spring are scary.

I like how Ken's total after all those years still ends in "60".

The line that got me was that Ken couldn't buy a new tie because he still hadn't gotten his money!

His total seems a little low:

$35,000 per show * 5 shows per week * 39 weeks * 44 years = $300,300,000

assuming a 39-week season.

Or $300,300,060 if you prefer.

 Ah, yes, but this is what you didn't know. Between now and the time that picture was taken, the United States becomes part of the Martian/Plutonian Common Market. The dollar sign still exists, but it doesn't represent the same thing and its actual name is really quite difficult for our primitive mouths to say.
