Wild Cards! – Dec 21, 2015

Krazy Pic/GIF –  I was just about to congratulate this kid, when . . . 🙂   See KP15-Final

Joke of the Week/Month? Perhaps a new regular (weekly?) feature, beginning in 2016? (Feedback?)  Today’s initial offering is one joke – but it contains marvelous string of puns.  It’s one of my favorites, partly due to its complexity. I suspect you’ve seen/heard it, but if not, I guarantee a groan, and I suspect at least a grin, if not an outright laugh.  See Joke.

Cartoons of the Week –  Christmas Thoughts & Wishes – and Humor.  PLUS a Christmas greeting especially for math nerds. All for the price of one click:  Christmas.  

Brain Teaser Wrap Up – This marks the last of the Brain Teasers for December (and for 2015!).  I’ve continued the patterns of last week’s BTs in two ways:  1) Eye-friendly icons. 🙂  2) Simpler versions of some classic ‘word problems’.  They all lend themselves to much easier approaches – sometimes you can just ‘crank’.  Don’t avoid them – you’ll be pleased!!  See DecBTs.
