GUEST,.gargoyle	Origins: Jeopardy Tune (upon death of Alex Trebek) (3)	Origins: Jeopardy Tune	08 Nov 20
New York Times interview in 2005 with Merv Griffin regarding the 30 second Jeopary tune, he said at first "he wrote the melody as a lullaby for his son, Tony, and that it took him under a minute to write it." The song brought in royalties for Griffin that he said astonished him. "That little 30 seconds has made me a fortune, millions. You don’t want to know. Probably close to $70-80 million.” Sincerely, Gargoyle A quick musical inclusion. Alex deserves better than the lower regions.
