If you don't know anything about Ken Jennings, he was the first multi-day winning champion after Jeopardy changed their rules about how long a champion can come back for from serial wins. Originally, champions would only be able to stay for about 5 rounds. So here comes Ken Jennings with his mind mastery and recall abilities and wins over $2.5 million for 74 straight games. Like, whaaaaaaaaaat??
I'm only bringing this up because I made my mom laugh hysterically for several minutes, and I didn't think it was quite that funny. All I said was, Ken Jennings defragments his mind every weekend. She must not think I'm very clever either, because she asked if I heard that somewhere before. But after I thought about it, I realized I don't really tell a whole lot of jokes to her, and I don't very often make her laugh like that, as it had taken me aback. Maybe because she just doesn't really laugh much anymore in general. I'm just happy she is feeling a little less strung out after a dramatic weekend for her. Introducing her to Clumsy Ninja may have helped out too; that little dude always seems to brighten my mood.
And in case you didn't know:
