No I didnt, but its been fun, and a couple times a challenge after the fact. :)

Grading the next couple weeks is going to be time consuming. Is it just me, or does it look like there is still two more episodes?

WAY COOL !!!      8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8) 8)


Thanks Stump Branch and all the other prize contributors.   :) :) :) :)


And way to go Furby.   :)    I hadn't even considered you a serious threat at this point.   ;D

This last week has been a tough one around here.  I almost didn't get contest answers posted.  As it is, I think I got them in just under the wire.    ::)   I've been sicker than a dog the last 8 days with a really bad cold.  Then this past Thursday the wife's father passed away and she had to go out of town for that.   I stayed home.  Along with being sick, our son s home on leave until Tuesday and we have the grand kids here until Tuesday as well.   To top all this off the air conditioning went out Friday.  :(     It' currently (at 7 PM) 91° inside with the windows open.

Anyway, enough of the excuses.   I went nuts trying to figure out Darrel's nick name.   I even sent an email to Gustafson Logging.  :D  I didn't get an answer.  ::)   I gave up and guessed on the beer can question.  ???    And I have absolutely no clue on what the last question even means.    :-\ :-\ :-\    
QuoteQuestion 30: "Contact Operator Channel what?"
Channel 27
If it's from one of the in-between commercials like the Valspar question earlier in the contest, it's different from what I see because I have satellite TV here.  

I was also thrown because of the bloopers History channel aired.   Like question 18.   An early episode identified Chris Hand as 'Sparky'.   I spend hours trying to figure out who the heck Chris Warn was.

Anyway.....  Thanks again to all the sponsors, contributors and competitors.


And due to a posting delay because bad weather took out my satellite internet while typing, I now see that additional prizes have been added.    8) 8) 8) 8)

CONGRATULATIONS  Dr. Buck
sorta like when looking for something at home you just saw a few days ago,
and can`t remember where. Several questions I knew I`d seen the answer
for but could not find. some turned up the second or third time thru the tape
right where i`d been looking. I took some guesses also.
Jeff great questions, must have been fun finding them.
Congratulations to everyone else TOooooo.
