I don’t know about you but it feels like Friday to me. Maybe because I’m on my way to my parents’. It’s been many weeks since I’ve been home, so I should be getting caught up a whole bunch of recent weekend reruns. I know you’ll be checking back every hour or so for those Coryats. 😉
All right, the clues for Week 7 Day 1! Here’s the list of people I’m watching, in order from highest score to lowest this round. Five people got perfect scores, including reader Neville Fogarty.
