Question

When did, “You need to stop hitting!” get translated into, “but please feel free to pinch my face”?

Grrr…two year olds.

What is it? #4

Okay, peeps, this one’s a bit different. And, AND, it’s a three pointer. Yeah, baby.

This is actually the image in its entirety. Unfortunately, Annie is disqualified from participating in this one for reasons obvious to her and her alone. However, Annie, you will get a bonus 1 point just because. And, of course, the ability to chime in in the comments and throw people off of guessing what this tortu…erm….unknown device may be. 🙂

And now, without further ado….

Umm…Bald Man is disqualified, too, but is also free to mess with the minds of those guessing.

I’m off for the weekend, but will be looking forward to all of the guesses. 😛 And, people, if this one gets guessed right away, the photos will get considerably more challenging, and I mean it!!!!

Thanks again for playing, btw. 🙂

I don’t care how comfy your three day old socks are. Changing your socks is not about your comfort, but about the quality of life for those around you.

You’re welcome.

What is it?: A jumprope

Yep, that’s right, Anne Marie is the winner! That’s two, two, points for the lovely lady in the back row.

This:

was cropped from this:

So, technically, a few of you were probably correct in identifying part of the picture. Some of you were, I dunno, high? 😛 But jumprope was what I was going for. Well done. Thanks for participating.

The rest of you shall receive some lovely parting gifts (I always thought they were saying “party gifts” when I was younger and couldn’t for the life of me understand why anyone would want Love My Carpet for a party).

Johnny, tell them what they’ve won!!!!

“…………………..”

Ahem. Yes. Well. I’ll have another photo up in a bit for the next challenge. It’s a good one, I think. It’ll be up for the weekend at least. Stay tuned…..

If this gets guessed correctly right away, I will be forced to make things harder on you people. 😉

Let the guessing begin….

What is it?: A Clipboard

Anne Marie (that’s the second Ann(e) Marie now out here at this blog. How many more can we get, ya think? 😛 ) nailed that photo pretty quickly:

That was the top of this clipboard:

wii2rmnim.jpg

Well done, Anne Marie. 🙂

So, this definitely means the photos will have to get a bit more difficult again. 😛

There’s also been a suggestion that I wait and let several people guess before saying if an answer was correct. But seeing as how it was more of a demand than a request, I’m only taking it into consideration. 😉 😛

Another photo will be coming soon…..

What is it? #2

Okay, so, this is the second edition of “What is it?”

Reminder, there is now a prize to go with this little game. The first person to give the correct guess gets the point for that photo. I’ll try to post them at different times of day so that there is a more even chance of winning. 🙂

No one got last week’s. I don’t know if this will be easier or not. Here goes:

BTW-If a particular photos is quickly identified, there may be more than one in a given week. 🙂

So, I really had no idea this was going to look orange to everyone. Sorry. Not nearly as easy as I thought it would be.

It was…..

…my coffee. I was blowing on it to cool it off. I think the color thing that ended up confusing everyone was the fact that the flash was off when I took this shot.

Here’s the same thing with the flash:

coffee2mnim.jpg

There you go.

And guess what?!? I think I’m gonna make this a true contest. I’ll do this once a week through mid-December. Whoever gets the most answers correct will win a prize. Probably something amazonish. Amount will depend on how many people are in the running for the prize. 🙂

So, come back Monday for the next photo. I’ll try to make it a little easier next time! And thanks to all of you who played this time. I appreciate it. 🙂

Apparently, all those early Saturday mornings in bowling leagues as a kid have finally paid off! I scored a 259 tonight! Mostly strikes with two spares. Fantastic.

Okay, okay. You got me. It was on the Wii. 😛 Still, it was kinda fun. 🙂

I’ve had mixed feelings about the Wii ever since it made its appearance at my mom’s house. There was so much hype about it that I really didn’t think it could live up to its reputation. And, quite honestly, I’m not all that star-struck over it. I mean, sure, you can play tennis and bowling and baseball and that all from your living room.

I’d rather play tennis on a tennis court, bowl in a bowling alley, and I’d rather just not play baseball if I can help it.

The benefits, though, were a little more evident to me tonight when my 87 year old grandmother and my 2 year old son, and all of us in between, could hang out and bowl together without and concerns about car seats and diaper bags and wheelchairs or canes. Just all hanging out together at my mom’s, bowling. That’s kinda fun. 🙂
