    We Won A Lot Of Money

    Wife and I were watching a game show on TV called Chain Reaction. Has anyone seen it? Anyway it's a very stimulating game, and really makes you think. It's done very well. A game description from the show...To complete chains of words after the first and last words of the chain are revealed. Each word in the chain relates in some way to the word directly above and/or below it.

    So the contestants have a choice of guessing the word under the top word or over the bottom word by the adding of a letter at a time. The new words are connected in some way to the other. When all the words have been guessed, the vertical line of words flow in meaning from top to bottom.

    It took a few tries to figure out what was going on, but my wife and I knocked them out of the park. As for how much money we won, I can't really remember, but it was in the thousands. Will we get a check...no we won't. We were just playing at home.

    Reminds me of my father. He used to say 'I almost got a Cadillac today!
    I asked the dealer if he would give me one for free and he said 'no'.
    I was THIS close!

      Both you guys deserve

      an award. For that reason I'm sending both of you a check for $10,000. The checks in the mail.

        I'd have a lot of Jeopardy money by playing at home, along with most of Ben Stein's money.

        Then, of course I'd lose it all on who wants to be a millionaire.
