Dreamhost charged me this morning for a year instead of a month. UGH. Please fix it soon, ass clowns.

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.

June is bustin’ out all over.

If you want to read what I hope is witty commentary on my life, Czech out the Xanga.

 For the time being, I’ll be doing something different with this site. [And not obsessively counting comments to validate my self worth.]

… I just haven’t decided what yet.

Summer Goals update: I am a huge slacker.

  • I have [almost] finished ONE of the FOUR Latin books
  • I haven’t as much as BOUGHT the book I need to read to get credit for my internship [though I tried on ebay and had my money returned when it was actually out of stock]
  • I am through C [as in, "of Z"] in my grad school book
  • While I have decided which GRE book I’ll be studying from, I have not made any progress to get one of my own
