John opens up a DD on the $800 bit of Book Talk & he's in LGT early w/ $3,200 to Aarin's one grand & Sallie's negative 800 bucks. He goes for another G-spot.

Sweet! In books by Judy Blume, Farley Drexel Hatcher's better known by this nickname.

"What is Fudge?"...that surely wasn't said as a bad thing, 'cause that's right for $4,200! He adds $2K to that before halftime & now has a $5K advantage over Aarin; Sallie's just $200 on the bad side.

Under Early American History, Sallie hits a DD in its center box w/ $2,800; Aarin has $7K & is $2K off John's pace. Sallie wagers $1K too.

This Quaker leader spent only four yrs. in the colony & future state w/ his name on it, leaving for good in 1701.

"Who is William Penn?"...right she is for $3,800; eventually, she triples that figure to $11,400 & takes a slight $400 lead after Balloon Time. The 3rd & final one gets caught by Aarin on the $1,200 Animal in Poetry. She tries for a new total of $7,400, because $1K gets wagered on three of these tonight.

Ted Walker cleverly likened this colorful pet fish to the "...spillings of rich coins on a miser's table".

"What is a Goldfish?"...also the name of a popular Pepperidge Farm snack brand, she got it. They don't reach the last four Weather answers in time.
