Trebek, You Dirty Robot

Jeopardy uber-champ Ken Jennings--er, Mormon Superstar?--dons his Angry hat and inexplicably sinks his teeth into the hand that fed for several weeks in 2004. Apparently $3 million doesn't buy the kind of respect it used to. Millions of dollars for trivia game show? What a country!

UPDATE: Jennings' website is back up after traffic crashed it. Here's the naughty post. And here's his ornery response to Michael Starr's rip on him, which talked about feeding hands being bit way before I did here. My failure to be clever was unorginal. Harumph.
