Bored?

I tried to word this creatively, as if it were a late-night infomercial, but that didn't work. So, you get the boring version.

Ammon has come up with a solution to boredom. It is called The What To Do Dartboard, or something like that. He hangs it on a magnetic surface, like the door, and throws magnet-darts at it. Wherever they land, that's what he does. Here, take a look.


As you can plainly see, there are quite a variety of activities to choose from...or to be randomly chosen by the dart. The circles around the perimeter stand for the following: WM: watch movie; D: design things; CK: call Keenan; B: Bionicles; P: play; WP: watch PBS. The target (from outside to perimeter) says Draw, Take a nap, Read a book, Legos, and the bullseye is a big G for Garfield! (either garfield.com or reading a Garfield comic book).

Ammon actually uses this dartboard and I think it is quite inventive and handy.

That is a great idea! Maybe I'll pass it along to Naomi, although she spends the majority of her time drawing and reading right now, which I don't mind at all.

That is so like Ammon. He's clever and funny.
