    Thowing Down With Alex Trebek

    Hey folks,

    After months of waiting, my debut on Jeopardy finally arrives this Wednesday, December 5th.

    Most stations run the show at 7 p.m., but if you’re wondering when and where to watch, check out: http://www.jeopardy.com/showguide_whentowatch.php

    You can also get a preview of me doing my “Hometown Shoutout” on the Jeopardy website at http://www.jeopardy.com/showguide_thisweek.php

    Rob,
    Great! I'll be watching.
    Did Trebek ask you to sing all known verses of Roddy McCorley? You'd have smoked that category!
    Thanks for the update.

    P.S.
    Rob, you won't remember my name, but I was your singing file mate as we retraced 69th NYSM footsteps at 1st Bull Run in June of '06.

        The color bearer from BGR makes his television debut!

        Well played Rob.

        If you could close with that speech from Henry V as you did at the final formation in Kisatchie I think Alex would be humbled.

        I would go with a frock versus a sack for this. The frock is dressier and says "I'm all about business."

        Good luck. I shall tune in.

            Rob,
            You did a helluva job! Some of your responses were amazing!
            I couldn't believe the "Butcher from Galena" question, and I'm a bit surprised you missed two from the Bible. I was hoping the final category would be "Things Trebek Sucks."
            Tough luck on the final answer as the former champ bet the farm with nothing to lose.
            Bully job. Old Erin is proud.

                You wuz robbed! Took away $1200 because you didn't say Archives. Puh-leez. You can honestly say you were "Trebekked."

                That last question was tough. I didn't think anyone was going to get that one. Good job.

                    Yeah, you could tell Alex was miffed over the mother comment and was MORE than happy to take that money away. You did represent well Rob but I was waiting for you to say "I'll take Shocker appreciation for $600 please"......Jerry Stiles

                      We will invite Trebek down for Into the Piney Woods and perhaps Jauquin Negras or the ghost of Juan Cortina will leave him pinned to a tree in the howling wilderness.

                      Darned fine effort Rob!
