I didn't think his voice was that deep.

There was nothing in the local newspaper about his appearance, either.

He looked surprised - I can only assume that he had a case of Hotseatitis that affected his mathematical abilities.

I wonder what he thought.

His brains must have been shaken down to his iron butt. I would guess he'll now be the butt of jokes in his motorcycle group.

One of my rules for when I get my turn in the hot seat: Wait for Meredith to ask if it's my final answer. DO NOT say "Final answer" without thinking about it one more time.

That's exactly what I did, and that is what I would advise, especially for the first five questions. It will make you more comfortable.
