This variation of the game involves the listeners counting their own personal strikes when they incorrectly obey or don’t obey a command. Simon can set a number of strikes (three strikes, five strikes, etc.), or strikes can be counted as letters of a word. Depending on the word, listeners who spell out the entire word are then out for the rest of the game round. For example, much like the basketball game Horse, strikes can spell out H-O-R-S-E. Once a player spells the entire word, they are eliminated. During holidays or certain festivities, the leader of the ground can change their name from Simon. For example, if you’re playing some time around Valentine's Day, Simon says can turn into Cupid says. If you’re playing around the Fourth of July, Simon can change into Uncle Sam says. “Simon says” can be translated into a fun activity for any sports team, especially teams that have older kids. A volleyball version of Simon says would include all volleyball related commands. For example, Simon might give commands like:  Block – All players jump up to block. Dive – All players pretend to dive for a ball. Defense – All players go into their defensive, ready position.  Shuffle – All players would shuffle in the direction indicated by Simon.

One-sentence summary -- Counting your own strikes. Play with a theme for Simon. Incorporate sports activities.


The stereo system in your car has a built-in crossover that filters the different frequencies that come through your speakers. Crossover locations vary based on different car models, so you'll need to look in your owner's manual to find your crossover's specific location. Most stereo crossovers are located inside the car door panel. Unscrew the caps on the 2 binding posts on the crossover labeled “Highpass.” Insert the speaker wires into the holes in these posts, connecting the positive and negative wires to the positive and negative posts. Finally, screw the caps back onto the binding posts to secure the wires in place. Your speaker wires will most likely be color coded to indicate which is positive and which is negative. In most cases, the wire with the stripe is the negative wire and the wire with the solid color is the positive wire. Unscrew the caps on the binding posts on the back of your tweeter and insert speaker wires into the exposed holes. Screw the caps back onto the posts to secure the wires. Again, make sure you connect the positive and negative wires to their respective binding posts to ensure that the tweeter works correctly. If you installed more than 1 tweeter, use additional pairs of speaker wires to connect them to your car's crossover. The wires should be attached to the same posts that you attached the first tweeter to. Note that if you have more than 2 tweeters in total, you may need to have an additional crossover installed in order to ensure all of your tweeters produce the same quality of sound. Reconnect your car's battery, then turn on your car's radio and make sure the volume is turned up so that you can hear it. Listen to the sound coming from your tweeter to make sure there are no unwanted vibrations. If the tweeter is vibrating, it means it's too loosely attached. If you flush mounted or bottom mounted your tweeters, the last thing you need to do to complete the installation is screw the door panel or dashboard back into place. Once this is done, test the tweeters once again to make sure the process of reattaching the panels didn't loosen them up.

Repeat this process as necessary to connect other installed tweeters. Test the tweeters to make sure they work properly. Reattach the panels you removed, if applicable.


Adding a pair of heels is one of the fastest way to make denim look dressier. Stiletto heels work especially well, but kitten heels can also work. Go for black or another neutral for a classic look, while a bright shoe can add a bold touch. A low pair of heels can dress up a simple T-shirt and boot-cut jeans combination, while a pair of stilettos will bring elegance to relaxed straight-leg jeans. A nice pair of flats is a classic way to look pulled together. Choose ballet flats for a feminine look or boat shoes for a dash of vintage style.  Embellishments such as bows or gems can add more flair to a pair of flats. Wear a crew-neck sweater with straight-leg jeans and a pair of boat shoes for a classically preppy look. If you have dark jeans and a dressy top in a neutral color, consider a bright shoe, like a red pump or a crocodile skin flat, to add a chic twist to your outfit. Show off your cool street style with a pair of brightly-colored suede shoes and a pair of ankle-length jeans with a tucked-in Oxford shirt. Leather boots have a naturally sophisticated look, and ankle-length boots have become especially popular in recent years. Ankle-length boots work well with nearly any cut, from the classic boot-cut to the more modern skinny leg. Wear a pair of ankle boots with a low heel under a pair of boot-cut jeans and a T-shirt topped with a scarf for the perfect fall look. Knee-high boots can also look trendy, and if paired with a dark jean and a nice blouse, they can make an outfit look city chic. Pair these boots with a snug skinny jean and zip the boot up over your jean. Wearing these boots beneath your jeans defeats the purpose of having a boot with such a tall height. Wear knee-high riding boots with skinny jeans and a long sweater for preppy winter style. Instead of getting too casual with your shoes on casual Fridays, keep your footwear professional. Stick with high quality leather loafers to add structure and professionalism to your jeans. An Oxford shirt paired with dark-wash, straight-leg jeans and a pair of leather loafers is the perfect blend between laid-back and dressy for an informal work meeting or a dinner with friends. These look like barrettes for your shoes, and they provide a quick, easy way of dressing up an otherwise simple pair of flats. Try wearing a plain black shirt and a pair of slim-leg jeans to really show off your sparkly shoe clips.
