Another Oodles Trivia Question Lost

Once again, let us have a moment of silence to pay our respects to another game that no longer has an Oodles Trivia Question. RIP: Zen Gems

Zen Gems has now become a leader board game.

In other news, GSN has once again remodeled the individual game pages. While they look "cleaner" and less cluttered, the button for the trivia questions has now been moved to the bottom of the page (with the exception of Bingo America).

Also, when you click on Straws under the tab on the Wonder Wheel where you earn spins, it takes you to the new game page. You have to click on "Play for Oodles" to earn the spin.

And, am I the only one getting annoyed with the Professor Layton ads that pop up on the first two games and you are forced to listen to it while you do the question (those kids are getting on my nerves).

Sheesh!

Our First Mad Mad Libs Winners

OHHHHHHH KAAAAAAYY....... You people are "madder" than I thought.

After hours of head bonking, eye gouging, nose pulling and "nyuk-nyuks", our independent panel of judges (Moe, Larry and Curly) have selected the top three entries for this round out of over a hundred submitted. It wasn't easy. There was much arguing (along with side-splitting laughter), but there was one thing we all agreed on - YOU ALL NEED TO STOP SMOKING THE CHEAP STUFF! :-)

I've highlighted the words submitted in each entry.  They are in order of first, second and third place.  Congratulation to our winners and thanks to everyone who submitted an entry.

So without further ado (or adon't), here are this round's "NO-PRIZE" winners:

The Space Shuttle

In 1981, the U.S. Launched the first real Space wiener schnitzel. It was named Columbia and was piloted by two brave paparazzi. They had practiced regurgitating for two years and were expert congressmen. Columbia took off from Vatican City using its powerful first-stage brassieres and soared off into the salt-encrusted blue couch potato. At an altitude of 6 2/3 feet, it went into orbit around the blowhole. For people watching from Earth, it was a chunky sight to slobber! Who could really tinkle that there were two henchmen in space? It was mind-gambling. After 99 orbits, the shuttle landed playfully at an air force penguin. It was a meaty day for the U.S. Space Program.

Michael, Sacramento, CA


***Personal note:  Anyone who can get the words "regurgitating" and "congressmen" as well as "Vatican City" and "brassieres" together in any sentence (whether accidentally or on purpose) deserves to win some kind of award.



In 1981, the U.S. Launched the first real Space lesbian. It was named Columbia and was piloted by two brave paper plates. They had practiced dancing for two years and were expert hobos. Columbia took off from Seattle using its powerful first-stage elbows and soared off into the hairy blue mammoths. At an altitude of 13 feet, it went into orbit around the cleavage. For people watching from Earth, it was a broken sight to touch! Who could really hug that there were two tattoos in space? It was mind-killing. After 5 orbits, the shuttle landed menacingly at an air force heroine. It was an amazing day for the U.S. Space Program.

Nikki, Tacoma, WA

In 1981, the U.S. Launched the first real Space rickshaw. It was named Columbia and was piloted by two brave coolies. They had practiced pulling for two years and were expert streets. Columbia took off from Bangkok using its powerful first-stage dragons and soared off into the gigantic blue cookie. At an altitude of 15 feet, it went into orbit around the basket. For people watching from Earth, it was a tiny sight to speak! Who could really run that there were two bears in space? It was mind-hiding. After 22 orbits, the shuttle landed swiftly at an air force grass. It was a tall day for the U.S. Space Program.

Kathryn, Golden Valley, MN

Have a great one everyone!!!

One Year Strong

Wow! Here we are one year later.

I certainly didn't think I would last this long. I'm sure many of you probably thought the same.

When I started this blog, it was actually an experiment for me. I had never blogged before and I thought I would give it a try. I couldn't really think of a subject at first. Then, it hit me.

I didn't even look to see if anyone else was doing anything like this. I thought, "This will give me something to do and maybe someone will actually look at it and use it."

I found out shortly after beginning the blog, that there were other sites out there doing the same thing. I figured I would have little to no audience and my days would be numbered.

Then, one day, I started receiving comments from those of you visiting. Many told me that my site was easier to use than the others. Slowly, the number of you visiting began to increase and my spirits were lifted. This could actually work.

A lot's happened over the last year. I was unemployed and living in Baltimore. I found a job back home in Dallas and subsequently moved back home. Many of the other sites doing this went away.

I want to take this time to thank all of you who visit this blog (whether since the beginning or if you are a new visitor). You are the reason I continue to do this. I enjoy hearing from all of you and hope to hear more.

So, here's to the first year of Oodles of Fun! I don't know how much longer GSN will keep the Oodles program going, but I'm looking forward to at least another year of this.

Thank you all again and Happy Oodling!
