My grandparents raised me, and we had a nightly routine.
We would eat dinner, then my sister and I would wash the dishes while my grandpa cleared the table and put away leftovers.
Afterward, we would sit on the couch, spread out on the giant sectional; my grandparents in their reclining sections, and watch Wheel of Fortune followed by Jeopardy!
I spent my entire childhood listening to Alex Trebek quotes.
Alex Trebek inspired me to pelajari, and as I got older, I loved answering the questions before the contestants.
I swear, half of what I know today, I first pelajaried on Jeopardy!
Two years ago, I signed up to take the test to be on the show, but I ended up being at work the night it was supposed to happen, and I didn’t take it.
I am incredibly saddened that I will jangan pernah make it on Jeopardy!
But that doesn’t mean we can’t still pelajari a few things from the man with all the answers.
