and more on Jeopardy! giant Jennings...

No Question About It: The Winner Loses (washingtonpost.com):
"The former Mormon missionary from Salt Lake City showed no mercy...

'They could not find anybody to really challenge him,' said [Merv]Griffin. 'That scared me a little.'

Jennings plowed through questions with voracity and occasional delight, his wrong answers often more entertaining than the right ones, like the time the clue board asked for a word that can describe either a garden tool or a person of immoral character.

'What is a ho?' Jennings responded.

'A rake,' host Alex Trebek sputtered through laughter."
