I don't know if I get 1 check or 2. They don't send a payment until 120 days after the air date. I guess they are waiting to see if I disqualify myself by appearing on another game show.
The 2nd place person gets $2000, regardless of how they score, third place gets $1000 which basically covers your airfare, hotel, etc. (They only pay airfare if you have to come back for a second taping - they paid for my 2nd ticket.)
As far as winnings, I think most of it will go to deficit reduction / stimulus / universal health care.
I might buy myself a MacBook and let my wife use the rest for home repairs.

I thought he was annoying too, but I didn't know if it was because he was too cocky or because he kept hitting the buzzer first when I wanted Peter to get in there.
At any rate, good job!

So haircut boy survives into the next season. At least it wasn't the gadabout. That guy started the episode looking all quirky like he was the starring in an indie romantic comedy opposite Zoey Deschanel, and by the beginning of the second round he looked so haggard and beaten, I almost felt sorry for him.
Did anyone see Thursday's episode? By the time they hit final jeopardy, the two new contestants were each tied with less than 1% of surfer dude's total. That had to have been some sort of record. I'm surprised Alex didn't bring it up today.
