To much good information sliding through my brain to possibly convey all of tonight’s happenings over at CC’s. I have to just put in my two cents worth and my expression of joyous glee with question 21 from round two tonight, as it will live in pubquiz infamy as “The condom question” My dear writers, [...]

Rocker girls, hacking I Phones and Trojan horses
On Trumpets and Mr. November
How fun to do some quizmasterin’ at a new venue! Belmont Inn of course has my heart (and my lungs), but after tonight, I’ll sub for Mr. Dave at the Green Dragon any time! A healthy 53 people showed up for our rockin’ chick edition, which was slightly more than I’d anticipated. I had been [...]
USC Falls to the Beavs!!! Bogey’s 9/24/08
What a night!! It was great to watch the titan USC team fall to the OSU Beavers!! Hell Yea!! It was also a great night at the Pub Quiz as a lowly newcomer ‘Team Sham’ came into the Bogey’s bowl and took the crown with a conservative wager in the final round. Well Played guys!! [...]
Shagging sheep at the Watering hole
Howdy boys and girls. Fresh back from a rousting night at the Parkway Station. Those Shaggers were going at it all night long, though the Darwin Award winners gave them a good run for the money. Darwin’s took the lead early with their bingo prowess and their awesome autumn roses (see I knew how to [...]
Happy Birthday, Executive Assistant Renee!
Wow some exciting action at the ol’ Belmont Inn tonight, what with the unranked Oregon State Beavers HANDING #1 ranked USC their ASSES right there, on the screen, as my quiz was going.

After watching that video.. I think I’ll have a Guinness!! LOL!!! The Thirsty Lion 9/24/08
A nice group of 77 people came to play last night at The Thirsty Lion. Everyone had a great time and I think the highlight of the night was the video clue on the 2nd round about Arthur Guinness… if you weren’t there, look up on Youtube ‘Best Guinness Commercial Ever’ and you’ll know what [...]
Horse and Hound doesn’t Fall Behind!
It was a great crowd this week at the Horse and Hound in Hood River! A bit smaller than usual – perhaps the crazy rain scared people away. The scores were big though, and everyone bet big ont he final question with team “Leaves with your Money” coming out ahead in first place! Thanks for [...]
Thank goodness for DVR
With every new show in the world starting on TV this week, I was very impressed to see 6 teams formed by 27 people at my first Fall pub quiz! They have embraced the Fall scent and breezes and clamored in to play the quiz. But nobody brought me any leave flowers. Bingo was tough [...]
So quiet you could hear a needle fall… Biddy McGraw’s 9/23/08
Strange start to the quiz last night… 49 people at Biddy’s were playing and it was so quiet through the bingo round that you could hear the bubbles in people’s beer popping!! It was really weird… I have never heard a crowd that size be so quiet!! I guess that means people were just really [...]
