Yup, one and done. Why couldn't they have saved this question for ME? :cry:
I just ordered chicken and an egg from Amazon. I'll let you know.

There is a Back Bay here in Newport Beach but I knew there was one in Boston as well.
I believe in the usefulness of useless information.

$16K-Easy. I guess since they've already used the Michigan questions, I'll have to study other states' geography in case I get in the hot seat.
I'm just a game show nerd.

Here's a short report on Mark's appearance.

http://www.wwd.com/memopad/article/126036
STUDY UP NEXT TIME: What do Boston and Bhutan have in common? Not much, but Condé Nast Traveler's style director Mark Connolly wishes they did. He leaves for a photo shoot in Bhutan for the October issue on Saturday but before his trip, Connolly took a turn on the show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire." Unfortunately, the questions from host Meredith Vieira ended up being "very American" (the British Connolly only recently became a U.S. citizen) so he lost out when asked what American city is home to the popular Back Bay neighborhood (Boston). But it wasn't all for naught — he walked away with $8,000. Of course, the money isn't going to change his life, but Connolly says he's glad he did the show, even if it was an "absurd thing to do."
An absurd thing to do....

ARRRGGGGGGHHHHHHH!
