Subj : Conference Hosts To : Daryl Stout From : Barry Martin Date : Fri Jan 13 2023 07:42:00 Hi Daryl! BM> You haven't watched TV in a while, have you?! The prize rule was BM> changed several years back. The last-placed contestant receives BM> $1,000, the second-placed contestant $2,000, while the winner continues BM> to accumulate all the money earned. As for Final Jeopardy!. only the BM> contestants with a positive amount of money can play, and I have seen BM> just the one person play. Obviously not playing against anyone, but BM> playing against himself. DS> I haven't turned on the TV sets here in 4 years...since I put DS> my Mom in a nursing home before her death. To me would seem odd to not watch TV: I do it more as a meaans to be aware of what is happening in the outside world via the news, though also use reading as a source. The other couple hours is more for entertainment and distraction. BM> That's always kind of a problem: other stuff. DS> I'm only one step away from being rich. All I need is money. :P Soooo close! BM> One gets what they ask for! DS> That's as dangerous as praying for patience, and wanting it DS> now!! Perhaps an 'emergency acquisition' in special instances?! BM> And then they re-give it and attempt to make it look like it wasn't BM> yours to begin with. DS> Yep. Folks don't realize until it's too late that "you can't DS> take it with you". Sbout the only thing they can take is a good heart. BM> You use a free public-domain font?! DS> Actually, it's abandonware, as support for it is no longer DS> available. Cuneiform! BM> ... Save disk space: put your word processing documents in a tiny font! DS> Deleting the pickled files (dll's) made my computer sober...but DS> it crashed on the sobriety test. :P ¯ BarryMartin3@ ® ¯ @MyMetronet.NET ® .... ...And the RESET button lets you re-run AUTOEXEC.BAT. --- MultiMail/Win32 v0.47 þ wcECHO 4.2 ÷ ILink: The Safe BBS þ Bettendorf, IA --- QScan/PCB v1.20a / 01-0462 * Origin: ILink: CFBBS | cfbbs.no-ip.com | 856-933-7096 (454:1/1) .
