Has anyone here ever been a contestant on a TV game show?  Every once in a while I'll see one and think, "Hmmm... Easy money..."

Watching "Millionaire" is particularly painful when someone uses a lifeline or two and [b]still[/b] misses an easy question.  I have to wonder if the producers screen out the brighter contestants so they won't have to pay out as much prize money.

BTW, wouldn't it be fun to see an "AR15.com Edition" of Jeopardy?  The categories could be:

5.56mm Rifles

Gun-Grabbing Politicians

Bug Out Bags

Conspiracy Theories

Kalifornia

Internet Pornography

[thinking]

I think McUzi would dominate the internet porn portion of the game.

I've tried out for 'em all. Never once got on. In fact never once got selected to try out in person. I've made it to $250,000 on millionare while watching it without missing a question. I could have several times walked away with a million. I sent to be on Teen Jeopardy and College Jeopardy, and Regualar Jeopary. Never got a response. Couldn't even get through to Millionare. I think most of the luck is having the extra time to waste on the phone lines. I sent a form to try to get on Ben Stein and got a form response. No Dice. Never got called to try out. I've actually won a few school spelling bees Grades 4 - 5. I almost went to county (alternate) in grades 6 - 7. But, no actual game shows.
