It also turned out that I had been invited to judge the preliminaries, which meant that instead of sitting with Karen Duffy, Daniel Baldwin and Ernie (the black Ghostbuster) Hudson at Friday's live telecast of the finals, I spent three days early in the week with Joel from Survivor, an executive from the CBS soap-opera division and Eddie and JoBo, Chicago's Bumpin' B96 morning team, whittling the contestants down to 10 semifinalists...
