What’s your favorite gameshow?
For me, this is an easy question. I am a Jeopardy fan especially when it is teen week (which is about the only time I know a good number of answers). For me, I choose Jeopardy for several reason. First, it makes you use your brain. On that show, being smart is a good thing. You don’t see people having to do stupid stunts to be able to make money. I also have a family connection to it. As a kid, we actually played this as a family. My mom would keep score, and we would see who did the best every day. It’s those kinds of memories that make me love the show even more. My kids are too little to watch Jeopardy, but I hope when they get older that I can play against them too.
Now, I am a Press Your Luck fan too. Who can resist the Whammy guys?
What’s your favorite game show and why?
Good week, good times, New York Times
Last week was a pretty good week. My week started off with an email from a New York Times reporter wanted to interview regarding a post I wrote about Amazon’s frustration free packaging. Once I picked myself up off the floor, I emailed him back and told him it was okay to call. I had a great conversation with their technology reporter, and I went on my merry way. Seriously, my heart was beating about 400 miles an hour while this was going on. I asked for him to let me know when it gets printed, and I thought that was the end of it.
On Thursday, I was super surprised to get a call from the New York Times again! This time they wanted to send a photographer to my house to get pictures of me and my kids! I ended up with 2 hours to get me and the kids ready and clean the house. It went well, I think, and I hope to find out soon when the article will get printed.
I feel incredibly blessed right now even though my mom is teasing about when Oprah is going to be calling.
