Other show info

*The six contestants who played the Pricing Games were all females today.
*The price of the telescoping desk, offered in Clock Game, was not revealed. For what it's worth, the price was almost certainly $939 based on the December 18, 2000 episode. Thanks to Corey Law for providing this information.
*Clock Game is not a game that you'd want to play if you're really nervous. Sherry proved this.
*Here are the bids from the 2nd IUFB (Before the overbid) $1,201 - $1,250 - $7,500 - $1,200... Interesting bidding!
*Why is the CAR card being found so often in Spelling Bee as of late?
*Two weeks without Dice Game. I never knew that was possible.
