Wheel of Jeopardy by Chris Sorrenti
Every week night
a well spent hour of cerebral calisthenics
intellectual fun
Pat Sajak Vanna White Alex Trebek
with a steadily changing roster
of guests in tow
All subtly remind me
despite my prowess with words and trivia
I still have a long ways to go

Posted by George Hoerner on 02/11/17 at 06:14 PM Oh my god, we rarely miss the program. And yes, it does give pause to think of how little we really know, even in our own field of education. Though don't have math questions on there very often! Nice write.

Posted by Philip F De Pinto on 02/13/17 at 02:54 AM Wonderful write, Chris. I used to watch Jeopardy many years ago and enjoyed it immensely when I did. One of the few shows that challenged the spirit to reminisce a world long since vanished. |
