The Hood River Pub Quiz is back outside! Well it was last night, who knows what the weather will be like next week. The Horse & Hound’s fried food was certainly more tempting with subtle wafts of oil and salt from the front door to the outside rather than it swirling about your head when [...]

Well, no way to excuse forgetting about Mother’s Day now. Anna Jarvis wouldn’t really be impressed with me just getting a card from the store or something, but them’s the breaks. So, a power play by Sandbar Devs at the pub quiz last night! Claimed a healthy amount of bonus points, including the bingo bonus [...]

Hola! Que tal? I’ve been a bit under the weather, so the last thing on my mind is cinco do mayo, tequila, corona, tecate, etc. But I’ve gotta run Pub Quiz! So I did. And it went pretty good! No sudden need to rush to a bathroom or anything. Like the Irish, thanks attributed to [...]

Forsooth, Shakespeare insults are fun And so was pub quiz last night! But Hood River may not have as many bard’s fans as I had anticipated, so blessed art thou getting thyselves to the quizzery so dutifully. Players at the Horse & Hound may be happy to know that bonus points for bringing in new [...]

Is everyone doing their part to reduce, reuse, and recycle? Yours truly reused paper for printouts, and reduced his carbon footprint by walking home last night. Though two sides to sheets seemed to puzzle quizzers no matter how many times I announce what’s what. But hey, you’ll get used to it! Or I’ll take the [...]

The hardest thing to understand in the world is the income tax. Albert Einstein When there is an income tax, the just man will pay more and the unjust less on the same amount of income. Plato Crap, it’s almost tax day. 4/17? What a total bummer. If only there were some kind of holiday [...]

We had a quiz night that was both totally bodacious /and/ radical. Bodical even. The 90s- if Agent Smith is to be believed it was the height of our civilization. Yeah, it’s, like, probably all gone downhill since then. Like, something really did happen in Y2K and we’re living in an alternate universe where anything [...]

Anyone can roast beef.   Another funny quiz at the Horse & Hound drew a large crowd and lots of laughs (not at the expense of the quizmaster for once) last night. Dick Cheney Stole My Heart and At least we’re not last looked like the forerunners after taking round 1′s bingo bonus, but each [...]

Pubquiz blog needs more Picard. And Hood River needs less wacky weather. Last night’s victors, At least we’re not last, held a strong lead with Bingo’s bonus points and their combined knowledge of Star Trek. Whoopi Goldberg was briefly relevant again thanks to being the 20 points bonus as the A-B-C-D link of Round 2′s [...]

The great melting pot that is America has a fine slew of it’s own holidays, but has adapted many more. An optimist might say this is proof of how accepting we are of other cultures. A realist might say we’ll take every excuse and every day off we can to get drunk and loud for [...]
