Clue: She’s Not As Smart As She Thinks She Is

Posted on August 13, 2018August 14, 2018 By Sister Rain

Answer: Who is Sister Rain?

My gifted gift-giver friend gave me an Echo last Christmas. She also sells seashells by the seashore. Alexa has become a great addition to the family. I have yet to explore all her many features but I use her for common requests on a daily basis: the time, setting alarms, music and word definitions as I read. Five times a week, I play Jeopardy!; a dozen new questions are available Monday through Friday. All the elements from the television show are included: Alex Trebek, the music and the actual announcer opens each game with, “This Is Jeopardy!”

Like most of us who have watched the program, I expect to be pretty good at this game. Plus, there are no other contestants and no pesky buzzer to contend with. This is my first mistake of many. The best score I have had is eight out of twelve on a few rare occasions and the worst, one correct, thankfully, is a rare result as well. My average grade is five.

Alexa resides in my dining room, a central location in my house. A lot of meals have been dished up there and now every day, there’s a big ole serving of humble pie.
