Certainly not you, Marley, and certainly not me either. Unless . . . we want to get on a certain game show and if by some miracle we eventually do get on, we want to have lifelines left when we get to the second tier. If I understood Pea correctly, she said that whenever she came across something she was totally unfamiliar with, but which seemed appropriate for a game show question, she made a note of it and sometimes studied further on some things, until she made her appearance. Then she quit doing it.

I think that's probably a good idea for folkses like us.

Well, among the tiny handful of things about which I disagree with Pea, the category of "who was whose babysitter" being "appropriate for a game show question" will have to be one of them. Even if Paula did reveal this bombshell of a news story on the Jimmy Kimmel Show, back in October.

http://abcnews.go.com/blogs/entertainme ... abysitter/
Paula remembers Michael not being a very attentive babysitter and recalls him spending most of his time jamming with musicians who lived in the building.

Paula told Kimmel she remembers hurting herself on a couch by jamming a pencil into her leg to get his attention and force him to drive her to the hospital. She said he would sing her to sleep but he would never help her with her homework.
Uh huh. Have charges of child endangerment been filed, yet? :roll:

Sprots cited her advice, but you're right that she hasn't personally expressed an opinion in this thread.

Yet. :wink:

So she's really a WE/WE/WE® (both an actor and a waiter/bartender).

Yeah, she mentioned neptunium but it didn't do her any good.

No idea. If I had lifelines I'd be using them.
