I believe that his name was Arthur Fiedler, "dl" instead of "ld". I
remember way back in the late '80s and early '90s when one of those
commercials sold CDs and tapes of some of the greatest performances of
his Boston Pops.

Caplan?! "I Will Always Love You" was NOT sung by Celine Dion, you

Oh yes shows what happens when you make an ass of yourself in front of
Millions of People on TV. BTW I bet Caplan is getting rocks thrown at
him right now as we speak.

League \League\, n. [Cf. OE. legue, lieue, a measure of length, F.
lieue, Pr. lega, legua, It. & LL. lega, Sp. legua, Pg. legoa, legua; all
fr. LL. leuca, of Celtic origin: cf. Arm. leo, lev (perh. from French),
Ir. leige (perh. from English); also Ir. & Gael. leac a flag, a broad,
flat stone, W. llech, -- such stones having perh. served as a sort of
milestone (cf. {Cromlech}).] 1. A measure of length or distance,
varying in different countries from about 2.4 to 4.6 English statute
miles of 5.280 feet each, and used (as a land measure) chiefly
on the continent of Europe, and in the Spanish parts of America. The
marine league of England and the United States is equal to
three marine, or geographical, miles of 6080 feet each.
Note: The English land league is equal to three English statute miles.
The Spanish and French leagues vary in each country
according to usage and the kind of measurement to which they are
applied. The Dutch and German leagues contain about four
geographical miles, or about 4.6 English statute miles.

What's interesting about this:
You know that the 50/50 leaves (a) the right answer and (b) the "most
correct sounding" answer, so if the 50/50 leaves a "not correct sounding"
answer, it must be right.
Same with Jenny Jones.

I knew they would knock out Chicago when he went 50/50. What surprised me was
that "Baltimore" wasn't one of the four choices -- Oprah worked at WJZ in
Baltimore for several years before she moved to Chicago.
I *knew* Oprah was born in Kentucky, so I figured that it would be a bit more
logical that Nashville would be the correct answer. How did "Nashville" sound
"not correct sounding"?
