Slightly OT- If you went on WOF or J!....

JayC:
If you went on WoF or J!, what would your interesting fact about yourself be?

WoF- My first word was "Vanna", my aunt was on the show once back when there was shopping and won a ceramic dog.

J!- Father was a master at Jeopardy and it was his favorite show.

 A somewhat related question: Part of the J! audition required applicants to write down five interesting things to discuss with Alex during the on-air contestant interviews. I wonder how many things they have to write down now with the potential for champions to stay on an unlimited number of days. It'd be hard enough for some to come up with five things.

 For J! I'd probably tell this story about my internship at the local news station in 2002...

One of the producers asked me to look for a "bag of bars" and a "box of tone." I ended up running around the whole station looking for both items, and even went to this rooftop shed to look for both. About 20 minutes later, I am led into one of the news manager's office, where I see a box stuffed with newspapers. Inside the box reads a message: "Gotcha! Love, the newsroom." The whole station was in on the gag. :-)

 I would guess that once you get up to six and seven days, Alex can pretty easily turn the discussion to the events of the past week and come up with questions related to that. "So, how do you think winning this money will change your life?" "What's the first thing you plan to buy with your winnings?" "Has anyone else in your family ever been a big winner in a contest or something similar?"

HSquares2003:
How did Wink Martindale handle Thom Mckee's long TTD reign on the discussion part? Surely they ran out of things after his (was it 45 days) long reign????
