Here is what I wrote to Gloria Puester who asked me about the program.
gloria, Too bad I saw this too late. Otherwise, I would have taped it
for you.
Liz is a delightful and bright young lady. While she did not win, she
certainly held her own, although she was the youngest competitor (and
the prettiest too) and she is a truly enchanting person.
Boron, what a treat this was! Thank you for telling us about this.
You have every right to be proud of Liz. I was quelling, while I
watched. :o) M.

Not so fast... I seriously doubt Margaret meant to write "quelling".
Merriam Webster
quell
transitive verb
Etymology: Middle English, to kill, quell, from Old English cwellan to
kill; akin to Old High German quellen to torture, kill, quAla torment,
Lithuanian gelti to hurt
1 : to thoroughly overwhelm and reduce to submission or passivity
<quell a riot>
2 : QUIET, PACIFY <quell fears>
---
quell
noun
Etymology: Middle English, from quellen to kill
1 obsolete : SLAUGHTER
---
Methinks Maragret meant the Yiddish...
kvell
: to burst with pride from the achievements of your loved ones. "My
son finally graduated from law school! Oi! I'm kvelling!" ("NYU?" "And
why NOT me?")
k'velen - Glow with pride and happiness, beam; be delighted

I asked Margaret about it after discovering that our local cable
channels no longer carry Jeopardy.

Boron, your daughter was a doll & we were tickled when she snuck in
there with correct answer to a cooking question. Thanks for giving us a
heads up - it's fun to have someone to root for and she did you proud -
especially in the music category.

Thank you, Sheldon. Yes, I meant I was kvelling, after all, how often
do I get the chance to see the child of a friend under such
circumstances and I had no idea how the word is spelled. M

Boron - My guess was correct. Liz was on tonight (Thursday) in SoCal.
Such a bright, poised young woman. Congratulations! (Or should I
congratulate *her* for getting your gene pool?)

WHEE! I am so very glad you saw it. Thanks.
I have gotten to meet your extraordinarily beautiful and talented
daughter and now you have gotten to "meet" mine.

And we should both claim that it's our side of the gene pool that
produced 'em.
