He may be right, I may be crazy. (Hey! Billy Joel pun! Almost...) After I was done, my husband gave me an Eep Op. Those are five of the sweetest syllables ever said. Melissa - when were you on?? That's awesome! I saw a triple stumper once asking for the Anthracite capital of the World. I was yelling at the TV. I hope that wasn't you! Alex thought I was a freak.

I blew my second game and now it's over, but thanks for cheering me on. I would have gotten that one even without the cheesy pita, but it made it so much sweeter.

I am a total music dork, so I was thrilled. The answer was "We Didn't Start the Fire." It took all I had to keep a poker face! The unbeatable guy was only 25, and got it wrong -- so I ended up winning! I knew the answer anyway, but all I could think that week was "RYAN STARTED THE FIRE! IT WAS ALWAYS BURNIN', SINCE THE WORLD'S RETURNIN'!"</blockquote> Here’s what Leigh said:

I watched and got the answer right, but I couldn't figure out where the Office reference was. Then as I was singing it out loud, without meaning to, I sang "Ryan started the fire" instead of "we didn't start the fire" and started laughing. That was quite a comeback. I figured the Geography Bee champ had it in the bag after he won $10,000 on the daily double question. What is “We Didn’t Start the Fire?”
