AN OGDEN NASH MENAGERIE
HELLO!
GOOD "BI"
When they take a break, Laura's $600 in the hole, Nishant's at $1,800 & Sonrisa has a $600 lead over the man in the middle. Laura has managed to go from negative to positive $600 & has the DD on the bottom of the $800 Ogden Nash Menagerie. Laura's $1K answer:
About this insect Nash wrote "Would you be calm and placid if you were full of formic acid?".
"What is a mosquito?"...incorrect- it was just an ant, so back she goes in negative territory to the tune of 400 bucks. By the time the board's wiped out, she's $1,200 to the good, 1/4 of new leader Nishant's score; Sonrisa's $400 behind him.

After the first two World History clues have been selected & read, Nishant goes DDH in the middle of the Movie Narrators...but Laura's got one floating in the $1,600 River on the Border & she stands at $5,600, $6K behind Nishant; Sonrisa has $7,200. The titleholder goes for another $4K here:
The Usumacinta River forms the border between Mexico & this country.
"What is Guatemala?"...she needed it & got it to go to $9,600, then she ties up the game as that category gets wrapped up! Also, she has a DDS & is additionally on the verge of sweeping the Francais category! Of her $15,200, she wagers three G's:
Meaning uninterested, it's the past participle of a French word meaning "to become boring".
She doesn't know it's blase.
