Thank you for making $ale of the Century one of the greatest I have ever experienced.
Bill McDee is our defending champion. In just one day, he has a total of $44,399 in cash and prizes.
I'm looking for two additional players to take on Bill for a chance to win cash and prizes. Not to mention a possibility to take home the entire lot including an automobile and $110,000 cash.
If you want to participate and take on the champ, please let me know and be on standby.

I am 56, and reside with my wife of 32 years and our son of 23 years near historic Washington Crossing, Pennsylvania, where I have been gainfully employed for the past 4 years with a small family owned business in town that sells equipment for first responders. I do order entry work there, clerical tasks, quality control, database management, daily and monthly financial reports too.
When I'm not working I enjoy games, both playing them and watching them, including a new venture I'm about to undertake, with fantasy baseball.
I'm in total shock that I'm sitting here as the champion, especially with over $44,000! Thank you!

You're welcome... and good luck to you, Bill. Now that all three players are set, let's start our first round by giving each of them $20. [ Ding ]I'll be asking you a set of questions. You have 24 hours to PM your buzz-code between 1 and 100 on each of them. If you're right, we'll add $5 to your score. But if you give me an incorrect response, you'll lose 5. Here's the first question... What search engine makes changes to its logo, known as "doodles," to celebrate holidays, anniversaries, and famous people, such as a pointillist version in honor of artist Georges Seurat? |

An adjective for peaceful and calm... zen is correct. [ Applause ]Bill is now tied with Kevin. [ Ding ]Next question... Bart runs half-heartedly for class president, and Homer runs more seriously for Springfield Sanitation Commissioner, in various episodes of what long-running animated sitcom? |

[ as Bart ] "Don't have a cow, man!" [ Normal Voice ] "The Simpsons" is correct. [ Applause ]And we have a 3-way tie. [ Ding ]A standard courtroom setting has attorneys, juries, bailiffs, stenographers, and what robed profession responsible for governing the trial at hand? |
