Friday Poll

When I was younger, in order to get me excited something had to have at least one or more of the following: blinking lights, bright colors, loud noises, wheels, kung-fu action, or no fewer than five buttons.  I worry then that I may be getting older as I find that what ‘excites’ me and Jenn [...]

Wednesday Wrapup

Alright, I realize I’ve been getting a little behind on posts and trivia, but in my defense in addition to my normal foes of fighting little children I’ve also been fighting a virus that has taken out a few people in my office.  However, after several daily naps and bedtimes before 9:00 I finally think [...]

Goodnight Noises Everywhere

Alright, I’ll make this quick since it’s late, I’m already behind one week on TT answers and I just had to modify this week’s due to some *cough*fact checking errors on my part.  So, I love reading but the only few minutes I have that are quiet and my own are right before sleep.  Problem [...]

Congratulations! It’s A Beautiful Tuesday Trivia!

UPDATE: Due to a few misguided but meticulous guesses I’m going to have to apologize that the middle clue is probably a bit too ambiguous (The guesses definitely required more work than I put into checking my facts).  thus, you will notice a revised clue that should be more straight forward. Alright, it’s late and [...]

Fun In The Sun (Heavy On The Sun)

Friday Poll

Well, looking at the results from last week’s poll I can’t decide whether or not I feel more normal about my moving habits or if I’m just depressed that I can’t make friends with any one whou can hold a stable address for any amount of time.  So, instead of thinking about where I live [...]

Between Love And Madness Lies Tuesday Trivia

I must say that I’m delighted to find out that I’m not the only one who has an unfortunate portion of my mind taken up by useless themes.  I do think it’s funny that people felt it necessary to defend their knowledge; I wouldn’t be surprised if there was an IHJ reader out there (*cough*Kelly*cough*)who [...]

The Van Still Doesn’t Fit But At Least I Do

It’s may not be perfect but it’s definitely a step up from where we were.  The longer I put off cleaning the garage it seems the worse it got.  Last week was the tipping point when I was wading though my belongings and suddenly had an erie flashback to that scene in Star Wars where [...]

Time Wasters

Due to the limbo status of my current employment, I have regrettably become an expert and finding ways to waste enormous amounts of time online.  I had a few requests from some people for some links to a few good quick, funny, brain-not-required browsing; WARNING: By clicking MORE IHJ takes no responsibility for your brain [...]
