5 minutes of jumping jacks!

and btw…you're not trying very hard to make my nickname stick! :P I told you it wouldn't work. ;)

Madi, you're right again. You are so smart!

Why thank you! :)

Oops. I was referring to your comment to me. ;)

Are you saying you WANT it to stick???

NO…just pointing out that I was right for once. :)

Bethany and Jordan – Hey, a thought just occurred to me, if you two are siblings, why don't you just say all of this in person?? ;-)

LOL…that's what I said.

Hey Madi…have you tried any of the other challenges?

I tried the jumping stair thing…but all our stairs are hard wood or concrete and I freak myself out and grab the railing if I try to go very high. :P Haven't tried any of the others yet. :)

Same with our stairs.

Okay, I guess you could say I've done the wall sits one. We do that to strengthen our legs for down hill skiing. I've never timed myself though.
I think I've done the twisting legs and arms one before too.

Okay.

We were in different rooms and on different floors… in this new age of technology, you communicate slightly different way. ;)
Okay, I'm kinda kidding. :D

I really need to think hard and come up with a really challenging activity here…
I got my brain work cut out for me today!

@Sam: have you done those jumping jacks yet? You told me you would…

Has Sam even been on today?

He's avoiding us 'cause we might give him a pitiful face. :P

Heh heh, but seriously, where is he? He's usually on all day.

lol…Hmm…maybe he's sick. :-/

Now that I think about it SBG hasn't been on either.

Maybe they got sick together. :P Or maybe they went fishing and fell off the boat, or maybe they are studying hard to finish their school, or maybe they got in a fight with a ninja and he got the better of them, or maybe……maybe their mom's said they couldn't go on anymore…. :P

I just realized another thing, Danielle hasn't been on either. Wow! All the regulars aren't on!

Hmm…this is strange! Too bad the spy ring isn't here to figure it out. ;)

Yeah, BTW, how are the Strangs doing? Have you heard from them?

Yup! We stay in touch through email. They are fine as far as I can tell. :)

That's good to hear!

I wonder what the next challenge will be on here?

Oh man…I thought of one the other day and now I can't remember! :(

You'll remember it sometime. :)

Probably. :)

Try to jump from something 5 feet in the air to the ground…without making any noise!
I have to do it every morning because I sleep on the top bunk of a bunk bed, and I don't want to wake my sibs up (all 4 of us share a room). What's more, the floor squeaks.

Try saying "Start Sword Study" 5 times fast. :)

On Saturday, we were on our way to a cook-out, and in the van, Titus asked, "When do we start the Sword Study?" But he accidently said "Stord Study" ; so I decided to try saying it 5 times fast – and let me tell you, it's hard! :)

Yeah, You'll remember when you are as far from a computer as possible, and then when you come back to a computer you'll forget it!

I'm pretty quiet, but I'm not sure if I could do that.

Don't you have a ladder?

@Abi: That is hard!! Thankfully, I have my own room now! :) I happen to be a light treader though…it helps that I'm kinda small! :D

@Ian: Exactly! That always happens to me! I must be getting old. :P

Yes, and my little brother (who has the bottom bunk) put his 3-foot-high bedside stand smack-dab up against it.
Oh, well. It's good practice for being a ninja.

Oh… I can see where you have trouble.

I'll be back in a minute. I'm gonna try it.

"Oh, well. It's good practice for being a ninja."

HAHA

Just did it, and my brother said I made a thump.

lol…did he try?? :P

Nope, but I've done it when he was asleep (since we have a bunk bed) and I've never woken him up.

Is he younger or older than you?

That's good enough then!! :)

Younger.

Both of mine are, too.

strolls in
WHAT UP PARTY PEOPLE? I'd be singing "Friday", but today is Tuesday. 'Sup?

A mysterious ninja jumping down from a 100-foot building and landing on you. That's up, but it won't be for long.
I bet he won't make a thud when he lands.

More like a splat, as I moved.

No, but he landed on a car, which somehow broke his fall.
(Have you seen the Messy Mondays Ten Ways Movies Think You Are Stupid? Some of it is kind of weird, but the rest is funny.)

'Cuz he's Batman, right?

Right. :-)
