Thank you ladies and gentlemen and welcome to Letter Rip. The game of famous people's names. Real or fake. Dead or alive. Before we get to the game itself, let's say hi to our contestants.

Another bump for John.

[johnnyb]

I apologize...

Hello, my name is John Bergman. I'm from Madison, Indiana and I am a retired cashier from a well-known department/grocery store. My hobbies are Bible reading, game shows, 60's and 70's rock and swing music and dancing.

I'm happy to be here.

[grapebuy789]

John my friend, we are glad to have you. Alright players. Here's how we play our little game. There are 3 rounds. In each round, we have five pairs of letter dice. One at a time, you'll each roll a pair to determine those pairs for that round. I will then roll a category die to determine the category. You earn one point for each famous name you give me. It can be any celebrity. Real or fake. Dead or alive. You get three points for pertaining to the category. For example, if TV were the category and you said Homer Simpson, you'd get three points. At the end of three rounds, whoever has the most points goes on to play the bonus round for a shot at $25,000!

*applause*

Let's get some dice rolling. It's time for Round 1. James, pick up a set of dice and roll 'em.
