Must admit it took me a while to get the reference ... so for others in the UK, elsewhere, Chris Tarrant, the host of WWtbaM ... was replaced by Regis Philbin in the US.

What time is it? I'm holding the polls open until 2400 FWFR time, because this is a squeaker, and I'm not sure that the apparent winner is not cheating. I will need to torture and interrogate first.

HEY NON-VOTER (and I think we can all figure out who that is ): VOTE!

The ask-the-audience lifeline proved to be a mess, so I won't even bother you with the suspense: in a three-way tie with 7 rupees each

I know you all think I cheated, but since you can't arrest me or smack me around with phone books, I'll just have to take my rupees and run ... to the next round!

Honorable Mention goes to Montgomery this week: the only contestant who didn't place (2 points), but she deserved to place!
