Getting killed in Jeopardy!

My big bro Jason and his girlfriend, Lauren, flew in last night to surprise my dad for his 60th birthday next week. Yep, he's getting old. I don't know what the big plans are for the weekend, but I'm just excited to have them in town.

In one of my favorite past-times mom, dad, Jason, Lauren and I gathered around our tv to play Jeopardy! last night. Let it be known that Jason and Lauren KICKED OUR BUTTS! Seriously, it wasn't even close. We played three games because, yes I do record them on the DVR so I can watch later on, and they won all of them....by not close margains mind you! Anyway, Lauren and Jason are/were history majors so they knew ALL the questions dealing with history. Plus Lauren was answering questions (or do you say questioning answers when talking about the format of Jeopardy!?) for the $2000 question in the category of Archeology. It was amazing. They were dominating! And I thought I was decent at Jeopardy. I've come to a conclusion after watching last night....I need to start reading more AND I need those books to be classics, historical, Shakespearean, or political. I was dominated in those categories! We have more episodes to watch today so let's hope it gets better.
