June 2nd, 2006: If a tree falls in the woods because of a wound, then what little object will not hear the sound? Answer: a deaf leaf.

A Why Me Rhyme is a pair of words that look like they should rhyme (after all, only their first letter is different), but don't really. For example, depending on the colorist, Etrigan could be considered a lemon demon. See if you can figure out these twelve Why Me Rhymes from their descriptions:

   a) What is heard when your little girl is having fun
   b) A disgustingly dirty sticker
   c) A siesta for weirdos
   d) A friendly rejection
   e) Lists of all sorts of animals to be eaten
   f) An unrefined crucifix
   g) A type of bar bet, maybe?
   h) Makes a news agency irrelevant
   i) Stamps that someone refuses to return
   j) Makes contact with feminine hygiene products
   k) A price reduction given only to certain noblemen
   l) Newer style of patio furniture

I don't know the answers [ooh, but I've found that I can check them and get back a 'wrong' or 'right'], but that sounds right, Rod [and actually, yes it is]. Good job!

k) viscount discount

Well done, clint.

June 23rd, 2006: Three weeks ago I was playing in The Game. One particular challenge was a timed maze (written by Stanford students Rachel Weinstein and Frank Losasso) that we had to play on a dance pad. It took my team surprisingly long, probably because we hadn't slept for 20 hours and we had failed to notice an important rule...

Now, you can share a little bit of that experience. Start clicking and see if you can figure out the rules and solve the maze. When you win, you won't be able to reset the puzzle any more -- that's deliberate.
