Summer vacation has begun, officially! And you know what that means!
Trivia and games and quizzes are certainly on their way. Last year I bit off a bit more than I could chew with my 80s video tournament. It seemed like a grand idea at the time, but my overzealous ambition (not to mention a touch of OCD) got the best of me. In the end, I made the executive decision to declare a-ha’s “Take On Me” the best video of the 80s, since we took Thriller out of the running at the very beginning.
This year I promise to return to my roots and provide you with the kinds of fun, finish-able trivia quizzes to which you’ve become accustomed, here on joeparadox.com. I’m not sure yet what they’ll be, so stay tuned!

Danielle and Tony:
Happy New Year! I think of you both often. Have made the transition to vegetarianism. Maybe vegan one day. It’s a process. I love the challenge to be creative and the health benefits as well. Come to Austin and visit me sometime.

Okay, so I am coming to this way late, but I just wanted to commiserate on the Money Pit situation. We are considering selling our house next year just to avoid putting in a new roof and furnace. I know I don’t want to stay in this house for another five or so years, so I know we’d never get our money back (we’d have to finance those repairs). Well, there are other reasons why we want to sell but those are big ones. As it stands now we have a huge To Do list just to get the house ready to show. Ugh.
Congrats on the new job too.

Hey, Deebers,
GREAT letter! But I was shocked to see the notebook paper with FIVE HOLES! At a Catholic school? No wonder you Mount Saint Joe’s/Joe Paradox chicks were completely out of control!
I would still love to do a little “wax on wax off” with Ralph Macchio.
