Jamie is the cantor of a local temple. (It's not the one I belong to, but I may be joining there soon because it's close to my kids' home and I hear it has an excellent Hebrew school.) I went to a viewing party at the temple today. Jamie recounted his Millionaire journey. He was a contestant years ago, but they ran out of time before his turn. He couldn't be on a later episode because it was the last taping day of the season. Meredith gave him a hug and a fake million dollar check. He hardly thought of Millionaire until this year when he heard about auditions in Philadelphia.
