"what is periodontal disease?"


tonight's categories are...GUMFIGHT....


to continue the habit discussion...

here's the view when my housemate and i shamelessly eat hit cookies and watch jeopardy. every day. at 7:00. it has become a habit. a slightly embarrassing one. i really am not a big tv watcher. didn't watch it for years. but lately i think i may have to give up saying that i really am not a big tv watcher. because i watch jeopardy and american idol! not even obscure educational shows. but mainstream, popular, commercial laden shows. but it's fun to make fun of alex trebek. he's so condescending and tries to pretend like he knows all the answers the contestants don't. (why do you need those index cards then alex?) and he thinks he's great at foreign accents. i pretty much suck at jeopardy and i still like to watch it. erica and i know the answers to some of the questions, but usually different ones, which is good, cuz otherwise i might start feeling competitive.


they have jeopardy in sweden too. the host there is annoying in a different way. he's just wacky in a "i'm a really really excited game show host" way. (just looked him up and i guess he's off the show now after 14 years...)

more about habits later this week perhaps...

Haha, that's such a cute habit though! Whenever I watch that show, I feel so dumb!

It sounds as though you are enjoying yourself and having a nice time and spending time with others so it sounds like it might be worth giving up the title of "non-frequent tv watcher". This sounds like lots of fun!

What do you mean? I know ALL the answers to Jeapordy! Except european architecture questions. Oops.

that's too funny. i don't regularly watch jeopardy, but i saw that episode. i shouted out the answer because the first person said "periodontis" - wrong!!!
