Dark Cloud Posted January 21, 2010 Share Posted January 21, 2010 Ok, so im gonna violate my policy on starting random threads but this one is a good one, lol... It takes a few minutes to read but it s a hack on TimmyToe, so its worth it. --------------------------------------- NEW YORK- resident Kathy Evans brought humiliation to her friends and family When she set a new standard for stupidity with her appearance On the popular TV show, 'Who Wants To Be A Millionaire.' Evans, a 32-year-old wife and mother of two, got stuck on the first question And proceeded to make what fans of the show are dubbing 'the absolute worst use Of lifelines ever.' After being introduced to the show's host Meredith Vieira, Evans was posed with a typically easy initial $100 question. The question was: 'Which of the following is the largest?' A) A Peanut An Elephant C) The Moon D) Hey, who you calling large? Immediately Mrs. Evans was struck with an all consuming panic as she did not Readily know the answer. 'Hmm, oh boy, that's a toughie,' said Evans, As Vieira did her level best to hide her disbelief. 'I mean, I'm sure I've heard of some of these things before, But I have no idea how large they would be.' Evans made the decision to use the first of her three lifelines, the 50/50. Answers A and D were removed, leaving her to decide which was Bigger, an elephant or the moon.. However, faced with an incredibly Easy question, Evans still remained unsure. 'Oh! It removed the two I was leaning towards!' exclaimed Evans. 'Darn. I think I better phone a friend.' Mrs. Evans asked to be connected with her friend Betsy, who is an office assistant. 'Hi Betsy! How are you? This is Kathy! I'm on TV!' said Evans, Wasting the first seven seconds of her call. 'Ok, I got an important question. Which of the following is the largest? B, an elephant, or C, the moon. 15 seconds Hun.' Betsy quickly replied that the answer was C, the moon. Evans proceeded to argue with her friend for the remaining ten seconds. 'Betsy, are you sure?' said Evans. 'How sure are you? Duh, that can't be it.' To everyone's astonishment, the moronic Evans declined to take her friend's Advice. 'I just don't know if I can trust Betsy. She's not all that bright. So I think I'd like to ask the audience,' said Evans. Asked to vote on the correct answer, the audience returned 98% in favor of Answer C, 'The Moon.' Having used up all her lifelines, Evans then made the dumbest choice of her life. 'Wow, seems like everybody is against what I'm thinking,' said the Too-stupid-to-live Evans. 'But you know, sometimes you just got to go with Your gut. So, let's see... I'm going to have to go with B, an elephant.. Final answer.' Evans sat before the dumbfounded audience, the only one waiting with bated breath - And was told that she was wrong, and that the answer was in fact, C, 'The Moon.' ---------------------------------------- In an interview after the show she also admitted to fishing Delta lake 3 times this winter...

CNY Tim Posted January 22, 2010 Share Posted January 22, 2010 Great one Jay. Thanks for the laugh and yes I just came off of Deta and I had a blast fishing the Showdown harkened me back to the old Fish I.D. 128 but much faster, liked the zoom. Pretty easy to get the hang of it.. Fished from 6' to 28' and caught a bunch of small perch but I was catching. So far the Showdown looks like a nice price point unit.
