On last night's Jeopardy! Teen Tournament, host Alex Trebek asked contestant Rachel Horn, 15, about her passion for the Marx Bros. movies. I was so impressed, not only by this girl's smarts but by the fact that she even knows who the Marx Bros. are, let alone be a fan of theirs. It fills me with pride to know that there are young people out there who value intelligence as well as classic films. Go Rachel! I'll be rooting for her tonight.
