Default FM on 'Jeopardy'

i'm surprised this wasn't posted yet:

category: Top O' The Charts
answer: This 1977 "sleepy" song became Fleetwood Mac's only #1 single.

and i'm screaming at my television, wishing i wasn't alone and screaming at a tv.

this was wednesday night, and yes it was answered correctly. can you imagine if you were on the show and something like that came up? i'd probably start rambling and saying 'hi' to ledgies... so pathetic.

and, speaking of questions/answers, i was playing trivial pursuit a few years ago and was going for the win when i was asked a question about a Fleetwood Mac songstress who had been quoted talking about lighting and dimmer switches. my mother was unbelievably peeved. in a good way.

anyone else run across Mac-ish things like these?

That kicks ass, but I believe it hasn't been posted yet because, to the best of my knowlege, only me and Diss picked "Jeopardy" as our favorite game show. I love Trivial Pursuit, by the way. Don't make me come over there!
Very cool, I love when Mac pops up.
yes, if I had been on jeopardy i would have squealed with delight, therefore probably forgetting to press my button really fast. I would also have "beamed" and perhaps did a little clappy dance. You know the one.

I'd be more than a little annoyed if the person got it wrong.

I remember another Mac answer/question on regular Jeopardy, probably about 5 or 6 years ago..."Fleetwood Mac sang about her in 1979 while Starship sang about her in 1986"

Of course...Sara is the question and it was answered correctly.
