It's not been hijacked, it's been sajaked.
Here is the whole interchange about Pint-sized Powerbroker Pat:
It's the influence of Ayn Rand. The other evening on 'Jeopardy' in one of the questions Pat Sajak proclaimed his favorite book was Atlas Shrugged. I never much cared for Sajak anyway, that sealed it.
What? Why was Pat Sajack on Jeopardy!? Doesn't he host Wheel of Fortune? And why would the subject of "favorite books" come up on either show?
Somehow there was a Celebrity favorite book question on Jeopardy. Pat was the one I remember for being a fan of Ayn Rand.
Something else about Pat Sajak. He is ultra-sensitive about his height. They have elevated platforms behind the podiums where the contestants stand for Pat to stand on so he will never appear to be too short. You will seldom (never?) see a tall Wheel of Fortune contestant and some are really short. I guarantee Wheel of Fortune has a question on their entrance form like, "How tall are you?" If you are over 5'4" you are eliminated.
His "favorite book" is taller than he is! I don't believe that the likes of Sajak actually read that giant yawner anyway. He heard the name somewhere, that's all.
Maybe he heard it was a short story.
Have you ever seen Pat Sajak and Orpah Winfrey at the same time............
He may have read it on his Sony Pocket Reader. I have one, it's pretty small...
Mystery solved! :)
I love your threads BTW. You have the same sarcasm as me.
Thank you for the explanation, Charles.
I was getting very stressed about what in the heck Sajak had done to turn the country into mush. :0
As always..your comments are hilarious.
