Tinnitus = constantly ringing ears.

William Shatner has this condition.

Jeopardy! useless trivia answer for the day.

Rene or whomever it is that does the games has a pretty thick south/middle Louisiana accent - EVERY time he called on Jordan Jefferson it sounded like George Jefferson. And he couldn't just say "Jefferson" as in a last name, he had to say "George Jefferson".... It was funny. "Jordan Jefferson" is a mouthful - try saying it 5 times real fast.

wife asked me during the game - what black momma would name her kid "George Jefferson?"

Sure sounded like that every time he said it.

Oh and for the record, I did watch the entire game. Yay me!

Gave the tiks to a client..who did not leave!!!
