Yeah, I’ll confess, I’ve never seen the Sound of Music. I’ve never had the opportunity or the gumption to watch it. Nevertheless, when the crowd at Bogey’s breaks into song I’m compelled to fudge my way through the tune, anyway.
Maybe I should rent it this weekend so I can attempt to capture the nostalgia of [...]

I’m once again the full timer at Horse and Hound. Woohoo.
Now, I can’t wait till the weather forces us outside to bask in the glorious sun at the foot of Mount Hood.
Thanks for bearing with me on the slow second round. We got through it, and too many listens to Tomorrow from Annie, together.
I love [...]

Wow, Mr. Winter, wow…
and
The belated pictures from last week.
For anyone who noticed that Robert, my illustrious grader, was absent yesterday, no, he was not wearing his invisible cowl, I did, in fact, do all of the grading myself. He will return next week to eat my nachos and yell inanity in my ear. inanity… heehee
Dave, [...]

Sometimes a pub quiz can make you feel a lot like a fourth grade teacher. You’re learnin’ new things to people who act much younger than they are (I think that’s an affect of the alcoschmol) and you grade a lot of papers. In honor of that feeling I offer you this fine, fine rhyme [...]

(Curses! For now, my browser is still not letting me get these photo files up, I’ll be working on them and they’ll be up soon.) (Now it’s not letting me do line through!)

Here They Are!

So, for now, here are the final scores:
Wasted [...]

Dear Dearie Dearest,
Please, if you have not visited Bogey’s for a Thursday night romp in the proverbial quiz hay, come join us. We all heckle each other over missed questions and sexual innuendo. We would love it if you came, saw, and attempted to conquer for a piece of Pub Quiz pride.
Remember, when in doubt, [...]

Great job tonight ya’ll. 29 people tonight.
The Dooby Taxiolas walked away with the win at the Horse and Hound.
My favorite answer of the night though goes to the Loco Motives.
The riddle was “The more you take the more you leave behind.”
The answer they gave: laxatives.
In honor of and inspired by that answer (but not in [...]

Woot! Biddy’s rocks! 64 people tonight! Props to Dave on his second crack at quiz writing.
Dave, you schooled the fools at Biddy’s tonight and they dug it.
Beautiful road mix on the Name That Tune Round. It got a lot of compliments.
PC Load Letter walked away with top prize tonight and Yellow No. 5 took second [...]

Thursdays are always a blank slate for me. I can head out to Gresham and look forward to having a wicked chicken caesar wrap whilst doing a quiz for a bunch of the sweetest folks you’ll ever meet. And Julie takes care of me with a pitcher of water and a straw ready when I [...]

Ok, I lied about the taxes. But it couldn’t hurt you to know more about the starting point of the Oregon Trail when you’re filling out your state tax forms.
Tuesday nights at Biddy’s have blown up the past couple of months. I am pumped to start bringing some friends in to help me grade all [...]
