Go!


Mark solves GOSSIP COLUMNIST. He had trouble with the M and N, but he's okay.


These contestants could have some gossip for us!
Mark Ramira: System applications for a major bank in San Francisco, also a kids' toy collector (including monkeys with sunglasses and a cap); from Walnut Creek, CA
Pat Leinenbach (female): Mother of one who also has beagles and a rescued sparrow (Pat suggests introducing it to Mark's monkeys), from La Mirada, CA
Diana Tald: Senior client manager, and she has about 150 pairs of shoes ("too many"); from Franklin, TN

She could add to her collection of shoes with some Toss-Up money from us!


Go!





Monkey time is not over! Mark could buy some even better sunglasses and hats for them with that $10,000 prize!

Perfection! Diana solves ANIMAL SHELTER.
