Wild Cards! 2/16/15

Cartoon of the Week  I’ve been waiting to roll this one out for awhile, but I can’t find one of the cartoon strips I want anywhere (even Google!).  I’ve found one similar, but . . . . Sigh.    I LOVE the first one here – used to use it in teacher workshops sometimes!!  Both cartoons on one link this time, so see Cartoons of the Week.

Valentine Verse Winners  It’s a case of quality, if not quantity in the Valentine’s Verse Contest.  Winners are subscribers Lisa  Ham and Alexis Avis.  Their verses are different in nature, and both good, and I don’t wish to ‘judge’ between them, so they will both be declared FIRST PLACE winners, and will split the 1st and 2nd place prizes.  ($10 – $15 cash and/or an OSS prize of choice for each.)  To read the dual winning entries, visit Valentine Verse Winners.

Suggestions, PLEASE!  I’m pleased to have gotten some good suggestions for the whole AME adventure so far!  So far, they have all been related to the Weekly Mailings (Photo/Sharings), which is FINE.  I’d be delighted to have more there, OR on the website, OR general thoughts about how you might be better served or more entertained.  Suggestions are ALWAY welcomed, of course, but you have ’til the end of the month to possibly win a PRIZE for them.  Visit the updated February Prize Events for further details, and suggest!! 

Brain Teaser Answers and Submitters   Continued interest in the brain teasers, but not quite as many submissions as usual this time.  For an update, see Various Answers.

Happy Anniversary –  Top Ten List!  Got a 46th anniversary coming to the Campbell household this coming week (Sunday, 22nd)!  To commemorate the event, I’ll dust off an old Top Ten List I created and used in another context a few years ago.  Here’s my list of Top Ten Signs You’ve Been Married 46 Years.  (Special thanks to good friend Terry Goodman, whose Top Ten lists are legendary among Math Ed folks, and from whom I actually stole the line used as Reason #1.)  Happy Anniversary, Pat!

Krazy Pic !  How could we have gone so long without a new KRAZY PIC ?!?!  Here’s one I’ve always liked . . . it just kinda makes you scratch your head in wonder!!  Look closely at the part highlighted in brown.  🙂 See Krazy Pic 15-2.  I guess we could title this “NOT ANYMORE!!” 🙂
