The meat didn’t stop there!

Oh no, it didn’t! I had thought the meat market was cornered in Hood River, but Hillsboro showed up with all sorts of Oscar Meyer products as well! Hot Dogs, three kinds of luncheon meats, and one someone said “went bad in my car”. I was really glad Dan didn’t go get it. I think [...]

Among the other honors of quizmastering last night, I also received several oscars and an emmy. Or was it a Golden Globe? I didn’t even know I was up for one. I’d like to thank all the little people who made this happen. Like the old woman who so graciously allowed a recording for my [...]

Well my friends—those loyal players of Belmont’s Inn’s pub quiz,Belmont’s kind and hardworking staff, my fellow quizmasters and writers, and of course the Academy—it’s been a long, winding road that’s brought us to this point. We’ve had our ups and downs, our ins and outs. Sometimes I didn’t like you so much, and sometimes you [...]



And the Curtain Falls

What a sophomore week! The teams kept pouring in at Captain Ron’s. We get lots of newbie teams as well as a couple veteran ones. Everyone is still so excited about all the hubbub. It’s a lot of fun to be a part of. Sherwood DOES like to have fun and they DO know some [...]

So much meat!

I’ve seen Oscar Meyer Weiners, Bologna, and ham this week. It’s been awesome though – I mean what other place would people bring the contents of their fridge to a pub or bar? Hillarious. The best is when they are standing there grinning, hoping I’ll give them bonus points for bringing their meat, and awkwardly [...]



Sailing away at the Maiden

A lot of work goes into getting that Oscar just right, as you all showed me tonight with the Oscar assortment of Bobbleheads of Mayors named Oscar, bowling trophies parading as movie awards, plastic Oscar’s on top of bowls, Oscar’s (of Charlie’s Angel’s fame) head on top of an Oscar Statuette, The Oscar Myer Wiener [...]

We had a great quiz at Portsmouth. Everyone was all wet and windblown but ready to play. I had one team show up with Oscars in hand. It was fun! Bingo went pretty fast….Kramer vs. Kramer took it with a 4-corners win! We haven’t had that in a lonnggg time. Round 2 had a little [...]

The glitz and glam was in full effect tonight along the red carpet at Biddy’s, where old favorites and hot new acts alike turned out for one of the most exciting events of the year… Alright, so that was my best “Entertainment Tonight” take on last night’s Oscar-themed quiz, which in reality was just as [...]
