A Pre-Thanksgiving Potluck

So Veronica and I have been getting to know other couples at our church Citylife, at gatherings such as tonight's potluck dinner. Our contribution was mashed potatoes and gravy. Very well received.
One of the couples put a "Battle of the Sexes" game together, which ended up being quite entertaining, but also educational. First, some context. Veronica had a little kitchen mishap while she was preparing the taters, which led to a little, little fight between us. Someone for some reason asked, "Who fought with their spouse on their way to this party?" and I couldn't believe how many people fessed up. Really, it had to be 1/3 of the room or something like that. The game ended up being a blowout (the men won on their superior knowledge of 1 Corinthians 13) and was very competitive. Great fun.

On a side note, it's really nice being in a city like Boston during college football season. Whether diehard fans or not, plenty of people are reppin their school colors on Saturdays in the fall. So far, the Michigan contingent seems to be the biggest.
Game ball today goes to Cal, winners of the 111th Big Game. Go Bears!

My Wallpaper

This picture is on my laptop. One of my classmates looked over and said, "that's amazing...how did she get up so high?"
This isn't the only picture I have of my wife jumping. She looks so cool - I couldn't stop laughing when I first saw it. Yeah Vern.

Riddles

I asked Veronica this riddle today:
"Name the object - you can make it, you can buy it, but you don't know when you're using it (answer: a coffin).
Sample answers:
air, oxygen, water, toothpaste, soil (?), contact lenses...
Coffin. It's a coffin.
