Traveler IQ

J and K took a spin at the Traveler IQ game.  They did pretty well, but were no match for 2 year-old Lily.  Perhaps DailyDad should have sprung for a nice atlas for Christmas.

Traveler IQ

Traveler IQ is a fun geography game virally spreading though the web (primarily via Facebook, I believe). It’s fun, educational, and a bit humbling (really, how many people know were Easter Island is located?). After a few warm-up games, DailyDad advanced half way through, before failing with a total score of 199,857.

Good Eating

Good eating from Yahoo! Health. They even suggest candy for when the sweet tooth start aching (and not that crappy tasting dietary stuff), but, alas, they don’t mention Milk Duds.
The Picture Perfect Anytime List is a menu of the lowest-calorie produce, soups, sauces, condiments, marinades, dressings, dips, candies, desserts, and beverages available. Stuff your [...]
