I am 57, I live near historic Washington Crossing Pennsylvania with my wife of 33 years and our son who just turned 25 recently.
For the past 5 and a half years I have been employed by a small business in town that sells equipment for first responders, mainly for their vehicles.
My primary duty is entering orders into the computer system that we receive through e-mails from our clients, but also do alpha and numeric filing, daily and monthly financial reports, data base management, proofreading and reconciling in house purchase orders.
In my spare time I enjoy watching vintage sitcoms and TV programs from the 1950s through the 1990s, as well as a huge game show fan. As a matter of fact I am old enough to remember when Wheel debuted in 1975 on NBC and watching it with my Mom and my one grandmother as well.
I also am a novice US Historian, specifically with United States Presidents, something my Mom got me into when I was 7 years old right after Richard Nixon's resignation as our 37th President back in August 1974.

Sounds like you've managed to keep yourself busy and I bet you have some nice memories from watching those earlier years of Wheel. Thank you for being here today Bill and good luck to you.
Last but not least, we have George Cluster. George, tell us about yourself.

Well, I am from Spartanburg, SC. I enjoy playing Mahjong, singing, listen to news music, listen to 80s music, watch game shows, and do word searches. The Teen Titans are in the audience cheering me on. Maybe either before the end of the show or end of the game I can introduce them to all of you.

Some nice hobbies there, George and I'm sure we'll be able to squeeze in some time during our show for you to introduce them. Anyway, good luck to you today George and welcome to the show. Now it's time to get underway and take a look at our Wheel of Fortune! *spins the wheel*  $500 is the top dollar value for our first round! Look out for that black space Bankrupt. If you hit that, you'll lose all your cash but not your merchandise because once you buy a prize, it's yours to keep forever. Let's now look at the puzzle for this first round...

Sadly, I can't give anyone the "Bob Goen discount" for vowels, so you have to either spin again or solve, Kevin.

That's a quick $200 for you, George. Not quite enough to buy a vowel, so it's either spin or solve.
