Jim Thornton: 2023 is almost here, So join us for another half hour of cheer on...
And now, here is the host of Card Sharks, Kevin Kolsen!
Me: Hi, everyone! Welcome to Card Sharks! 2022 is wrapping up, but as we've done in years past, we still plan on giving away lots of money and cars throughout next year. What better way to do that than to introduce Charlene and Terri, our models. They'll be dealing the cards for today's Card Sharks. Come on up!
*Nels and Kourtney run to their podiums*
We welcome back Nels Snesrud. He's here with a one-day total of $5,500.
*applause*
And plans for the new year yet, Nels?

I see. You have a few hours to decide. Next, we'll speak to your opponent: Kourtney Wilson. Do you have any plans for the new year?

Hopefully to win some money while I am here. Eat cleaner and learning a bit more about myself and how to grow in a better matter.

The object of Card Sharks is to get from one side of the board to the other by making calls on whether you think the next card is higher or lower than the one preceding it. We play best of three with the winner playing the Money Cards. To get control, you need to win a high-low toss-up question. Nels, as champion, you get to answer this first one. We surveyed 100 people:
"Is Bambi a male deer or a female deer?"
How many people correctly told us that Bambi is male, Nels?

Is the actual number higher or lower, Kourtney?

Tiny bit lower... Actual number of people who correctly answered that Bambi is a male deer is... *school bell* 63 of them! What do you know? First high-low question of 2023 is good for $1,000 in cash! Here you, go Nels. Ten $100 bills from my pocket to your hand. For that question, it helps that they did call Bambi the Great Prince of the Forest. That alone is an indicator. NELS

You can try again after another high-low question. For now, I'd like for you and Kourtney to look at our audience pit. We have a special polling group that is going to rise just about now. These are ten people, all of whom are Vietnam War veterans. Here's what we asked them:
"If you could have predicted the future in Vietnam, would you have dodged the draft?"
How many of these ten Vietnam War veterans said yes, Kourtney?

Hindsight is 20/20 they say. However, I would still think that they would still serve despite the out come. I am going to say a low number: three.

It would say something about their commitment to serve. 3 veterans, knowing what would happen, would dodge the draft.

*ding* Nels, higher or lower?

Fixed.
You're gonna say higher... [HI][__][ 3]
*ding* Actual number of veterans who would dodge the draft if they could predict the result of the Vietnam War is... [HI][ 3][ 3]
*school bell* Three of them! I don't believe this! Two for two on questions! And now Kourtney gets $1,000 in cash. A little editing and no one will ever know I'm giving this out twice. Before we get to the card-calling, who answered no to this? *seven veterans raise their hands* I'll talk to the one in the navy hat. Why did you say no? Veteran: I think Kourtney said it best. I'd have served despite the outcome. My country would call me either way. Me: That's great. Thank you and the others for your service. Because Kourtney got the answer on the nose, all of you will be given $100 cash. We may hear from all ten of you later on. —————|NELS

*dingdingding* Sixty. This time, Nels was off by ten. However, Kourtney had it in the right direction. Those parents sure are raising their kids right early. —————|NELS
