    This post discriminates against your foreign market. You're finished, Dr No. Finished. No, really, can you please give me a teeny intro or else I will just wait for the next post with my front teeth over my bottom lip.

    Hopeful: No explanation needed, I've just gone barmy (did I use that correctly?). Alex Trebek hosts a long-running game show called Jeopardy, a game show that I suck at and it annoys me. Google it and you'll see how the question categories are phrased and my poor attempt to mock them.

    I have to say I know exactly what Jeopardy is and I was still confused. But then, I also don't get cryptic crosswords and this was kind of like those.

    You might also consider 8°27'16.32"S 115° 4'30.03"E.

    Ok, that is one of my favorite SNL skits ever. And you just made it better by pairing that hilAriOus pic w/your own witty take.

    (Now that I'm thinking about it, the pic is only hilarious if you've seen the skit. Otherwise, it looks like two actors dressed up like Alex Trebek and Sean Connery. But if you've seen the skit, I bet you laughed the instant you saw it!)

    Sorry for the multipostings. Sigh.

    Sheez Ink, you better lay off that potent potable tonight! I had no idea that old SNL skits were on the nbc site. Church Lady, Pump You Up, Deep Thoughts! Gonna. Get. No. Paragraphs. Written. Tonight.

    Hopeful, you are missing a really shitty game show. The SNL skit is far more entertaining, which is what the game show is supposed to be, entertaining. Be thankful that it hasn't graced the foreign teevee.

    "Doctor, No" is a category on Jeopardy RIGHT NOW!!

    It's a Bond, James Bond inspired show with other cheesy categories of "Diamonds are Forever", "4 I's only", "Quantum of Shoelace", and "Moonraker".
