Parkway Station 10.23.08

Pubquizzers at Parkway Station really know their television.  My attention span is really limited to cartoons and Monk, and MAYBE Southpark (is that a cartoon?).  Anyway, any kind of drama is way out of my league. 
The Bingo round was productive for everybody, especially the Sheep Shaggers, the Brute Squad and Dazed and Confused who [...]



You better keep an eye out… cause the shit is flying!! Bogey’s 10/23/08

I frickin’ love it out at Bogey’s in the Gresh. The people are so funny and good natured that I laugh more than any other venue where I do a quiz. Not to mention when you have the famous $5 Burger, Fries AND Beer special things can’t go that bad.
The numbers are picking up and [...]

Hoog. Wow. Okay, so tonight was a little nuts, to put it mildly. 105 people showed up for some hot Pub Quiz action, choosing to answer questions for money instead of watching a World Series nobody in their right mind in the Northwest gives a flying rat’s ass about (flying rat’s asses, though… now THAT [...]

It was a different feel last night at The Thirsty Lion as they had all of there Halloween decorations up… and I must say they were really cool… it really gave the bar an old mansion/haunted house feel… But the most scary thing of the night was getting to see THE Captain James Tiberias Kirk himself doing [...]

And no, that doesn’t mean a world record size marijuana bag will be in Hood River… No, the Bar Team (The British Bulldogs) took second place this week, and their $19 winnings will roll over into next week’s pot!  The big winners for the night were the Starbuckers.  They got a bigger team together this [...]



Another Dumbing Down Session

Ahh the sweet serenity of the Maiden. So calm. So peaceful. Here, I find myself speaking in my “gentle” voice, and playing Chet Baker, and drinking red wine. It’s nice, and tonight’s quiz mellowed me out after a long, hard day at work.
First things first. I don’t watch TV, don’t like TV, believe TV is [...]



On the crisp, cool calm

So it was a bit chilly last night.  And everyone was sooo quiet at Portsmouth…I almost thought I had stepped into the library.
So, we had 2 of our veteran teams, 1 team on their sophomore voyage and 1 team brand spankin new to Oregon’s pub quiz scene but fresh off the SF pub quiz scene.  [...]

Itwas so competitive last night at Biddy’s McGraw’s that someone actually got so mad that they smashed the glass I was drinking out of!! Bastards!!! LOL!!! Alright, it wasn’t out of anger but clumsiness, combined with me placing my glass in an odd place under my table… but it was still pretty violent and cool… hehe
It [...]
