...what's it like filling the Nicollette Sheridan void? If they were actually trying to replace her, they would have hired someone 10 years younger and prettier than me. Even though she's older than me, she's way hotter. And I just had a baby, so I'm definitely not filling her hot, sexy wardrobe. (See TIME's TV photos of Jeopardy's Alex Trebek...

Those kids who hadn't been spanked in the initial survey period scored significantly better on intelligence and achievement tests than those who had been hit.
