I have a bad feeling about this...
UPDATED: StarWarsCrawl.com has been shut down by the Lucasfilm Buzzkill Brigade, alas. Well, it made me laugh while it was up.
(That's what she said.)
Best cookie ever?
The DoubleStuf Oreo is for wussies.
Behold:
The OctupleStuf. Snack of champions.
And guys who have to much spare time at lunch.

Because it's always funny
We've all killed time playing cute platform puzzle games by now. But now here's a question: how do you make one that I will play for more than 2 minutes?
If you answered "boobs," you get half credit for knowing me that well.
However, if you answered "Puzzle Farter," give yourself a prize.
No, really.

Crossword results: Fountains of win
How did you do on the crossword challenge?
I actually had to consult two reference books--which meant I had to go all the way down into the garage--but I managed to finish it all without the use of the Internet, just like the pioneers did all those years ago.
It's somehow fitting that one of the answers in the puzzle was "ass." At least, my wife thinks so.
Here's my work, screw-ups and all:

Jeff's No-Internet Challenge!
Okay, technically, it's mostly a challenge for me, but if you want to join in the fun, have at it. Here's the deal:
Below, I have scanned in a TV Guide crossword from the week of Nov. 2, 1974. Yes, I'm that much of a nerd that I have a copy of the TV Guide that was current the day I was born, right down to the right regional edition. But that's not important right now.
TV Guide puzzles, by and large, are not known for their difficulty. However, how would I fare at one that demanded pop culture knowledge from 33 and a half years ago? And just to make it interesting, I can't use any Internet resources; only whatever would've been at my disposal back in 1974.
Like I said, you can give it a shot yourself. I'll be back tomorrow to see how we all did. Let me know how you did in the comments if you'd like.

How young is too young to be manipulative?
Kids will get into stuff no matter how much you have kidproofed your house. I stayed home with the kids today, and my daughter was trying to get into everything.
To try to express the importance of not doing such things, I raised my voice--not in an evil-sounding way.
Now keep in mind that she's 10 months old, so she's not much of a conversationalist.
After I picked her up and moved her into the living room, I told her that I didn't want her to get into that stuff because she could get hurt.
She looked at me, smiled widely and gave me a big kiss.
And then went right back where I told her not to go.
Kids.
