Man, has anyone been watching the past 2 weeks? Ken Jennings is kicking arse. I'm actually considering becoming a computer programmer again because of him! He's like a 15 day champ.

Wow. He's smart. ohmy.gif I'm amazed.
kryogenix
just saw him win again, he's up to 16 days straight, with a little bit over $500,000 in cash won.

I've been watching the last couple episodes. I'm convinced Ken must have snorted an insane amount of cocaine and took LSD before every show.

It was absurd. He buzzes in before whether or not he knows the answer, which he got nearly all of them right. blink.gif

I feel sympathetic for the poor woman on tonight's show. She didn't have much of a chance and walked away with nothing.

I'm pretty sure as software developer he gets a big-ass salary anyway. Perhaps twice as rich now.

It's crazy to see someone who has that much overall knowledge in alot of things...I hope he keeps winning. I remember one night some lady wrote down for her final answer thing "Whatever Ken wrote down" it was great.

bah he's just jealous.

anyway, ken just won again, totaling a little over $600,000 now. but it was a really close call this time. another guy made a daily double at 10,000. he got it right and he was only $2000 away from ken going into final jeopardy. But ken still won.

ken is sooo awesome. he has soooo much knowledge in that brain of his. i began to watch ken after lettermen was making fun of him. jeopardy probably has much better ratings because of ken. ken kicks some major knowledge butt. im amaze!! wacko.gif

yeah, Saturday's jeopardy episodes are usually reruns.

Anyways, yeah, I've been watching. A few more wins and he'll be to a million! I also read an article that says that they tape 5 episodes of jeopardy (a week's worth) in one day. I don't know if they tape them right after another though. Hmm, I wonder if Ken changes his clothes between each episode even if it's actually taped on the same day. I never really noticed if he did or not. mellow.gif
kryogenix
is he still there?
ohnine
Ken Jennings, o yes the jeproady winner, yeah i like watching it just to see what they make i was offered last month to get on , i just hate it when my friends enter me into these game shows _dry.gif
imadorkabledxd

kryogenix
