Ken Jennings is my hero

August 2nd, 2006

You remember dear old Ken. 74 game winning streak on Jeopardy? Cute little Mormon? All around nice guy? That’s the one.

I can’t get enough of his blog: Ken-Jennings.com. Witty and entertaining, with enough vocabulary-building syntax and intelligent humor to keep me coming back (err… subscribing to the RSS feed).

My only major qualm with the operation is that viewers can’t comment directly. Ken set up a message board and I have to subscribe to throw in my two cents. No thanks, Ken. I guess I’ll have to keep admiring you from afar.

Also for your viewing pleasure: The video of Ken losing, ending his streak.

What’s not to love about this guy?

EDIT: Fun trivia fact I learned today from Ken:

James K. Polk was actually an absinthe drinker who once drunkenly declared statehood for his own sideburns.
