The Password is...

Miser.

Did anybody catch Jack on the TVLand/TV Guide special last night (Wednesday, Dec. 7). A very nice bit of brief commentary by Joan Benny, too, on the clip, as she was Jack's opponent that night.

I remembered almost everything about it: The revelation of the password, Jack, Joan, and the audience cracking up, and then Jack's famous clue: "Me."

I also remembered that his partner didn't get the word on that clue, but I'd forgotten her answer. With everybody in the studio cracking up, the best she could come up with was, "Comedian."

LL, I believe you said you had a hand in that clip being used in the special. Kudos to you. It brought back some great memories.
