Back in the Saddle!!! The Green Dragon 10/20/08

October 21st, 2008 at 9:47 am » Comments (0)

Well I am back after a wonderful week up in the beautiful San Juan Islands!! It was an awesome trip and if you’ve never been… I highly recommend it! The view from Mt. Constitution on Orcas island is absolutely amazing and something you won’t forget (Especially, when the sun breaks at the moment when you [...]



Best damn Martini’s in town…now at CC Slaughter’s

October 20th, 2008 at 10:36 pm » Comments (0)

Now let’s just say that Martini’s are something that I’ve been known to imbibe from time to time in places around Portland. So you can trust that I know a good martini vs a crap ass martini. I’ve always liked Martini’s for a stiff drink that has enough Frou Frou to make it go down [...]



Parkway Station. 10.16.08

October 17th, 2008 at 9:12 am » Comments (0)

Weirdest thing happened last night after the quiz – Queer Eye for the Straight Guy South Park! Now I can consider myself slightly more socially aware. Or something like that. Instead of getting my news from comedy shows, I get my pop culture from cartoon satire. Is that so wrong? Right now, I am obsessed [...]



House Envy

October 16th, 2008 at 10:26 pm » Comments (0)

Saw lots of sweet before ‘n’ after shots tonight, including YMBP guy’s saucy lil’ pool renovation, Boner in Sweatpants guy’s bitchin’ vehicular overhaul, and Tx guy’s shower curtain to regular curtain transformation (which he sewed himself!) I have to admit to some house envy this week, as I’ve now finished a triple threat of quizmastering [...]



An Upset at Bogeys!

October 16th, 2008 at 10:00 pm » Comments (0)

Tonight we had three teams playing at Bogey’s in Gresham. Team Sham and Team Bogeys were ahead most the night, with team Shuggy’s in third. Team Bogeys did amazing at A to Z and tied with Sham for first going into the handout grading, with Shuggy’s catching up a bit. But in a crazy come-from-behind [...]



I had to say “I love caulk” like 50 times…

October 16th, 2008 at 10:28 am » Comments (0)

At the Horse and Hound in Hood River this week. The team that came in second place were cunning linguists and named their team “I Love Caulk”. I also had jeopardy for round two this week, so I had to ask I love caulk for a category and point value many times in round 2 [...]



Maiden Voyage

October 15th, 2008 at 11:59 pm » Comments (0)

It’s already been a long week and I’m exhausted, but not too tired to hoot and holler about my awesome first night hosting at the wonderful Maiden! Taking over for the already-missed Toni, I stepped up to the plate against a warm, friendly crowd of 34. This is a wonderful number considering a month ago [...]



Home sweet Home

I was elated to walk in to Portsmouth and hear the buzz of…people!! Woohoo! There were lots of would-be pub quizzers there! I set up and encouraged the ping-pong/pinball players to stay and play with us. I was shown lots of neat before and after pics from all of the handywork my quizzers have done [...]



Scrabble with Schadenfreud at Biddy’s

October 14th, 2008 at 10:48 pm » Comments (0)

It was a great night at Biddy’s, where I filled in Dave’s shoes for a night as he is off in the vacationland of his choice. Schadenfreud came in first place, with Overly Squirrely nabbing the 2nd place bounty. Team Jojo hit third, but only because they bet big and didn’t know the final question [...]



The Brewery at the center of Universe

The answer is not 42. Nor is the answer 1984 or 1985 approximately. The answer tonight is: October 14, 1979 vs. Vancouver (Glen Hanlon). If you were with us tonight at the Bridgeport, you already know the question. #12. The Cattle Prodigy took the winnings of first place tonight at the Bridgeport, with second place [...]
