ken jennings is so shiny.

i just watched the finale of grand slam...the game show on gsn that pitted champions from different game shows against each other in a bracket format, until one was crowned the winner.

he was against ogi ogas (from millionaire) in the final round. the first two rounds were really close, and ogi ogas pulled them out by really small margins, just a second or two.

and then ken jennings opened a can of whoop-ass. they added a new round, contemporary knowledge, which had pop culture in it. and, well...ogi ogas doesn't know jack beans about pop culture. after that, it was over. ogas was dead, jennings was on fire, and that was the end of that.

so amusing. i love this show...and can't wait for gsn to do it next year. ♥

and...at the end, dennis miller (one of the hosts) said the funniest thing i've heard in a while:

"ken jennings...if i were as smart as you, i'd go around disdaining humanity."

i think i'd do that, too, if i were smart like ken jennings.

He's a very nice fellow, though. I used to see him at tournaments, back when his school would only play the first day of 2-day nationals tournamens.
