Jim Thornton: Christmas is coming, the geese are getting fat, We'd like to put a lot more than a penny in your hat on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hello! Hi! Thank you very much. Thank you for that warm welcome, from you at home, the audience and Jim. This is Card Sharks where fortune or a car can be all yours on the flip of a single card. We have a brand new car ready to be won, and we have two contestants who'd like to win it. I'll introduce our models, Charlene and Terri who are dealing the cards. And here come our Card Sharks right now!
*David and Nels to their podiums*
We welcome back David Barkow. David has a one-day cash total of $10,500.
*cheers and applause*

That's good. I still have a few left, but I'll get it done by the end of this week. Nels Snesrud is your challenger. Nels, you're a cashier. How's your line of work for the holidays?

I can tell. Just another two weeks before the big day. Let's play this game to take your mind off things.
DAVID

NELS
[C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S][C*S]
Each player has a deck of playing cards, David on the top and Nels on the bottom. You're both aiming to predict whether the next card is higher or lower than the one preceding it. Win one round, and you win $500. Win two, and we tack on another $1,000, and you advance to the Money Cards. To get control of the cards, you must win a high-low question. Here's the first one. We surveyed 100 people...
"Have you ever slept in your own car?"
How many people done this, David?

Nels says higher.
[23][__][HI]
*ding*
Actual number of people who have slept in their own cars is... [23][26][HI]
*dingdingding* 26 of them. It was indeed a little higher. I wonder if any of them saw a chiropractor afterward. DAVID

Protecting your position since a six is a risky card. High-low question number two is as follows, asked to 100 inmates of a California state prison...
"Do you support cashless bail?"
How many prisoners said yes, Nels?

Lower you say... [LO][__][67] *ding* Actual number of California prisoners who support cashless bail is...
[LO][79][67]
*ding* 79 of them. It wasn't lower. Looks like the prisoners want others to have the criminal justice they didn't get. Depends on the offense, though.

[K ♠][8 ♥][A.♦][C*S][C*S] It's not. *buzzer* That Ace would have been great, but we have to tuck that away.
