Final Jeopardy

[Lightning Rod]

I always count it as a good day if I get the Final Jeopardy question right.

I got it right today. Trivia is amazing like that. You know what you know and you don't know what you don't know.

So my Final Jeopardy clue is:


He painted in blue with the trumpet and the paintbrush.

What is your Final Jeopardy question?

[K&D]

no clue...but jeapordy is on here...i'm not watching it, my roomate is, i'm cleaning this god forsaken room.

[Lightning Rod]

here's the deal K&D

you live in Mountain Time and I live in Eastern Time

we could make out big-time on this jeopardy thing.

I get the answers two hours before you do.

(The answer to the Final Jeopardy question tonight is Mt. St. Helens)

make a bet with your room mate and answer the clue before it's even asked.

[K&D]

Mount St. Helens painted in blue with a trumpet and paintbrush?

[Lightning Rod]

no, doe doe

Mt. St. Helens was the answer to today's final jeopardy clue

the one in blue is my clue

do you know the question?

[Doreen Peri]

Oh, OK, I see.

This is your own game.

What's the category?

[Doreen Peri]

I'm having a hard time understanding the answer. After you tell me the category, could you explain the answer for me first before I try to figure out the question?

Do you mean he painted a blue painting of a trumpet and paintbrush?

Or do you mean that he used the trumpet as a tool to paint a blue painting along with a paintbrush?

Or do you mean that he had a blue trumpet and a blue paintbrush and painted with them?

Or do you mean something else entirely?



Category, please.

OK.

Who was Miles Davis?

[Lightning Rod]

right you are, doreen

here is one of his paintings



how much did you bet?

[Doreen Peri]

Thanks to google, I figured it out. I typed in "paintings blue trumpet" and the name Miles Davis came right up top. Is that cheating?

Unfortunately, I was only able to bet as much as I had. I bet it all.

Story of my life. Nothing x nothing is nothing.


Got any sponsors to put up some money for this game?

We need motivation!

No? No sponsors?

Then what do we win, if we win? Hmmmm?


Let's play again!
