Over in South America, Paraguay straddles the Tropic of Capricorn, but Lesotho in southern Africa is a few degrees south of that; with the 30th parallel south almost bisecting the country. It’s completely surrounded by South Africa and at about 11,700 square miles, is one of the world’s smaller countries. Its king is Letsie III, and (like many former British colonial possessions) is a constitutional monarchy.
In Jason’s interview today, he spoke about the blue ribbons that everyone in the Tournament is wearing over the next two weeks; they’re in remembrance of Cindy Stowell, who would have competed in this Tournament of Champions had she not passed away from colon cancer in December 2016, shortly before her games aired. Jeopardy! is also donating $10,000 in Cindy’s memory. What a grand gesture from both Jeopardy as well as Jason and his wife Rebekah, who co-ordinated the efforts and cut the ribbons for the contestants to wear.
In memory of Cindy Stowell, I’ll be donating $2 to the Cancer Research Institute for every item sold in November from our store!. Here are our top sellers; all prices are in US dollars!
In order to redesign our merchandise area to serve you better in 2026, all merchandise sales have been temporarily taken offline. Look for a return in late 2026! All previous orders will still be supported.
