On Halloween, people think it's great when you hide in a pile of leaves and then pop out to scare them. But when it's any other day, people get really angry!
My dogs have anal gland infections!
Here's Gary (biting his paws) in a lobster costume:
And here's Stryder, dressed as a chicken:

Man, oh man, do I love the Gym Boss. It's simply the best thing for a timed cardio workout! You're a ridiculous fool if you don't own a Gym Boss!

In high school, I thought it was really cool to write "Zeptember" and "Rocktober" on my papers. "I'll show all those stuffy teachers that I'm a rocker!!!"

Some scientists think that the Large Hadron Collider, which will fire up in Sweden next year, may very well destroy the Earth!
It will be switched on starting September 10th. That gives us nine more days! Weee! Maybe I won't pay that credit card bill.
If the collider does annihilate us all, I'm going to be really angry that my "Mr. Belvedere Will Destroy the Earth" theory turns out to be false.
As disconcerting as the possible end of the world is, I would like to address a much more serious and troubling problem: Jeopardy re-runs.
Yes, every once in a while, a previously aired episode of Jeopardy will be shown, usually a week's worth at a time.
No big deal, huh?
Well just consider this nightmare scenario:
You're watching Jeopardy with a friend. He's running every category, and you're amazed at his performance. Little do you know that he has seen this episode before and has neglected to inform you! He's playing you for a chump!
Here's what I propose:
When the episode is a re-run, federal law should require that the words "previously aired" appear somewhere on the screen at all times.
