Okay, I know this is old news for any die-hard GSN viewers out there, but last night I _finally_ got around to watching my tapes of their Thanksgiving Day “Feast of Favorites” marathon. The number 2 show was _The Joker’s Wild_, which pleased me no end. I nearly choked, though, when they introduced one of the contestants as a “rigging engineer.” After it was all over with and Jack was chatting with the guy, I fully expected him to say, “You know, I’ve got some experience in ‘rigging’ myself.” But that would have been too much to ask, huh?
