What a great night out at Bogey’s in Gresham last night!! It was laid back and everyone had a great time… at least after the first few minutes… when I thought I might actually get my ass kicked! Yes, I being me, made a joke, about the fondness between Gresham and Portland… and an older [...]

Whoa, where’d everyone go this week? Or is it that people actually don’t love our fair town as much as I would have thought? Yeah, I know, we’re not New York or Mexico City or whatever, but come on, Portland’s pretty cool, am I right? Can I get a huzzah? For Portland and Portland-themed quizzes? [...]

Thanks everyone for making me feel welcome at the Thirsty Lion Last night!! We had a great turnout on a lovely rainy Pacific Northwest night. You guys took my visual cherry so gently and even made me feel respected in the morning!! LOL!!
It ended up being one of the closest matches that I have ever [...]

WooHoo! Thanks everybody for being part of my best birthday ever! I had a blast last night and I hope you did too.
Thanks to the Filthy Traitors for their gifts of sweet sweet booze. I was glad Robert could drive me home afterwards cause I was slurring my words like whoa.
I am taking a hiatus [...]

While everyone else was sleeping off their holiday hangovers, some fine teams came out to The Portsmouth, Pizza and Pub in North Portland last night to battle it out for some cold hard cash. A new team to the venue “The Cunning Linguists” tested my linguistic cunningness every time I tried to pronounce their team [...]

Didn’t know who’d come out for a Memorial Day quiz. We ended up with a small, fun group including some veteran teams (The Streeps and Army of Skanks) and some new teams (welcome Steven’s Team and Nixon). So nice to see your happy faces!
Everything was going pretty well. Then we got to our 2nd round [...]

Jeezum crow what was going on last night at the Belmont Inn? Was our wonderful (formerly) little pub quiz written up in some popular publication or website? Did the news of my smooth, sexy magic on the mic finally find its way to Hollywood?
Alas nobody can explain the mysterious ebb and flow of Pub Quiz [...]

I had the pleasure of running the Bogeys Pub Quiz while Rigel is away. Many thanks for such a warm and enthusiastic welcome!
Everyone had fun and was receptive to my, shall we say, more “firm” quiz mistress-ing. There were a few minor disputes and the wide-ranging requests for “more boy bands” and “more history” in [...]

I’m Too Sexy for My Beige Food took the first place pot last night a busy busy Biddy McGraw’s.
Beanie Babies were out in force with folks bringing in a veritable menagerie of priceless legume infants to throw at each other.
That’s what they’re really for right? When else can you throw a duck-billed platypus at your [...]

You know there are times in your life when you look around and say “Hey, I’m hip…. I have a pulse on what’s happening in the world… nothing can take me down!” That is of course until Mr. Reality comes along with his sixteen pound sledge hammer and knocks the shit out of you… Kinda like [...]
