This may have to serve as my highest honor in show business:

Yep. Last night’s show - $1000 question in the “Writing for TV” category. Answered promptly by defending and still champion, Aaron. (Technically he was wrong, as he answered “Mystery Science Theater”, omitting the “3000”, but Alex said “Yes” and there was no correction from the judges. I can only guess they feared smudging my shining moment with controversy.)

The squealing phone call from my Mother-in-law let me know I had gained a new measure of credibility with the septuagenarian set that no actual script could accomplish. Also, I’m glad I have a blog so I don’t have to spend the day trying to casually steer conversations towards Jeopardy.
