05:48That's great.
05:49Well, she'll be watching, I'm sure.
05:51Ian Carpenter is originally from Muhammad, Illinois, a healthcare IT specialist and a musician.
05:55What do you play?
05:56I was classically trained in piano for 13 years, but in college, it's hard to bring a grand piano.
06:01So I learned guitar, banjo, mandolin, bass.
06:06And then in high school, I also played some brass instruments, trumpet, tuba, trombone, baritone, mellophone.
06:11I don't want to stop you because you just named 10 instruments.

06:29But you said you only remember Beijing.
06:32Yes.
06:32You were too little in 96.
06:33I was cognizant enough in 1996 to remember the world of Coca-Cola and getting curly fries somewhere.
06:41It might have been at Stone Mountain, but I don't remember any of the actual Olympics.
06:44I hope the athletes are not watching to find out the curly fries were more memorable.
06:47Well, curly fries are delicious.
06:49They are delicious.
06:49And you've been at Jeopardy over 22 times.
