O it was a wonderful Pacific Northwest evening at Biddy’s on Tue… dark and wet… But it was all cozy inside Biddy’s as we had our Monty Python theme quiz. I loved all of the songs that were sung to me for bonus points and I even survived a telling of the most dangerous joke [...]

The Full Monty’s Win…
… for best team name this week. Unfortunately they didn’t win the money. But points for awesome counts, right? The big winners this week were the Sandbar Developers! It was a great night full of “Sit on my Face” and “Isn’t it Nice to have a Penis?”. What could be better? We had a couple [...]
Bridgeport brews up some Sirens that say Titan!
Bridgeport was back in action tonight boys and girls! Monty Python is a popular theme. Oh-so-much fun to see folks acting out all the skits and singing all the great songs for me. Favorites of the night were the skit acted out with the lady thrown over the shoulder, and the wonderful serenade while I [...]
Warm Chocolate Raspberry Truffle Martinis…aka a “Polly”
mmmmm….Let me just start off by saying the worlds best martini does indeed hold my namesake. It was sooo yummy that I think there were about 6 of them going around last night. Dessert in a glass, and a damn good dessert to. All in all I am more convinced than ever that CC Slaughter’s [...]

Evil Printer-Wizard-Machine
What I learned tonight: It is as an indisputable, cardinal FACT that if a Quizmaster such as myself forgets to print off one of his handouts, and doesn’t realize it until 2 minutes before he has to drive to his venue to set up his P.A… yessir, it is a FACT, an Encyclopedic FACT, that [...]
Parkway Station 11.6.08
Something about a presidential election gets me all sentimental. A log crackling peacefully on the fire, my dad shouting at the T.V., my mother in tears over exit polls – gives me a bad case of the warm fuzzies. A completely new experience, on the other hand, is Pub Quiz: Election Day. So what if [...]
A Brand New Day… The Thirsty Lion 11/05/08
Change was in the air last night as we embarked on the first Pub Quiz in a new Era… of course as with Justin below I was working with a celebratory hangover and was moving a bit slow… especially as we had 70 folks and 18 teams… nice… and you know what? Everyone was chill [...]
It’s a Beautiful Day to be Hungover
Happy Day After Election Day, my friends (to quote the Thank God He’s Gone John McCain), and indeed it is a happy one. Woke up hungover, and I gotta tell you, it’s about the sweetest hangover I’ve ever had. There was some tequila in there at some point last night, which is all good and [...]
Carpet Baggers take Horse & Hound!
Kinda a random collection of words eh? But no! The Carpet Baggers took a big pot tonight at the Horse & Hound in Hood River. First time we did By The Numbers round here at the H&H and it went over pretty well. It was 100% politcal questions, which some teams loved, and some teams [...]
