It's 7pm, do you know where your kids are?

At 7pm, my parents definitely know where this kid is (not just because I live in their basement) but because anyone who knows me knows im a huge fan of Jeopardy (airing at 7pm on ABC- watch in hi-def it will blow your effing mind, the savants up close are cray-cray)

Being a fan of "America's Favorite Quiz Show" corresponds to my other "grandma" tendencies... ie. naps at any moment in the day... falling asleep during movies.... or at the movies... blindness without my glasses...

But yes, I am a huge fan. Such a big fan, that I bought it on wii for my(self) mom for Christmas this year. I can't even tell you how great of a game it is: the rush from pressing the button in time to type my answer in fast enough is almost as great of a high as Angry Birds (a game I secretly only recently discovered).

Is anyone else excited about this "Watson" character playing next week-- ITS A COMPUTER! That's right, the greatest Jeopardy Champions Ken Jennings and Brad Rutter (the Ben Roethlisberger-minus the rape- and Aaron Rodgers of Jeopardy-- what up football plug!) are playing against a COMPUTER. But all kidding aside- 50% of Jennings and Rutter's earnings will go to charity and 100% of Watson's will go to charity so it's a pretty cool idea- then again, I'd think any idea involving Jeopardy would be a cool one.


On that note, I will be registering to try out to be on jeopardy. I know, I know, a total long shot- I might as well try out for the NFL - whooaaaaaa FOOTBALL TWICE IN ONE BLOG.





Who knows, I could get lucky.

Peace. Love. Alex Trebek
