Do you care?
Either way, he's on the cover of this month's Costco Connection, which Costco sends to its members monthly.
Interesting read, I thought. Short for a cover story subject, but interesting.

I find it more interesting than I probably should that the cover shows Ken in front of the old dollar values for Single Jeopardy!, which were never in use while he was on the show.

Less than when reading through Brainiac and Maphead that he would get the Guinness World Records books every year and would relentlessly pepper his family with trivia factoids, but it's a neat thing that humanizes him a little, I guess. It's about ten-ish years too late, though.

I admire what he's done with his life since he was on Jeopardy...he took being the most successful game show contestant of all time (which I still believe he holds rights to, because of the scope of the overall accomplishment) and has built a brand from it.
I also like reading the op-ed pieces he writes every so often.
