My Other Hero

Oh Melia, you've done it again.

Jeopardy! Champion. Rhetoric Professor. Humanitarian. Draconian. Role Model.

Daniel Melia never ceases to amaze. Whether it is with his adept powers of argument, his ability to speak for hours at a time without saying anything, or, as seen here, his Cyclops-like power to burn out the eyes of his foe, Professor Melia does it with style, grace, and chutzpah.

If you ever get the chance to take a class with this Man, Rhetoric, Celtic Studies, or TV Judges, remember this moment. He will make your eyes burn. It is highly likely that he will take you to a German bar. And he will not smile. The only thing funny is Melia. And yes, he will describe to you in detail how humour works.
