Politically Correct (Space Room)

February 18th, 2010 at 10:25 am » Comments (1)

Disclaimer: Unlike other blog postings, this blog post was designed to generate zero controversy, and spark no debates whatsoever. So last night was nice, right? I asked questions. Quizzers gave answers. We had fun! “Spoonful of Millard Fillmore” played well all night long. “Sparging the Mash” got a perfect score on the presidential portrait handout! [...]



Commander In Chief

February 17th, 2010 at 11:05 pm » Comments (0)

That’s who I am…hehe…in my world. We had a decent crowd at Maxwell’s. This place is collecting a regular bunch of hooligans.  The game got started and we were off and running.  Hail to Beige Food took an early lead with the bingo bonus points in tow with Shagged and Confused following and President Nekkidty [...]



Lindsay Vonn wins! [Sellwood Public House]

February 17th, 2010 at 10:57 pm » Comments (1)

She didn’t win at the Sellwood tonight, but man, when I got home, there she was racing down that mountain, on that sad little maimed shin of hers. Woosh! Down that hill, past the places where the other and into first place she went.  Wtg Lindsay Vonn.  So glad that stinky cheese worked out for [...]



If I was President…

An old man told me, instead of spending billions on the war, we can use some of that money, in the ghetto. I know some so poor,when it rains that when they shower, screaming “fight the power”. – Wyclef Jean Not that that quote has a whole lot to do to with this week’s Pub [...]



If You Were A President…

February 17th, 2010 at 5:27 pm » Comments (0)

Happy (late) Fat Tuesday everyone!! I was pleasantly surprised to see a pretty good crowd at Schmizza Pub & Grub last night even though there were no beads to be thrown. (I did have some offers for gazing at sweater puppies in exchange for bonus points, but I’m made of sterner stuff…plus I didn’t realize [...]



“I’m here to lead, not to read.” (Shanahan’s)

February 17th, 2010 at 10:55 am » Comments (12)

Gotta love the infinite wisdom that is “The Simpsons.” The headline to this post is my new response every time I flub up a question. (That won’t get old, right? I mean… I won’t have to say it a lot, right?) And for those of you who doubted that Arnold Schwartzenegger was the President in [...]



The angry eyes of Ike

February 17th, 2010 at 12:36 am » Comments (0)

I dunno, I like Ike.  I mean, he’s not so angry looking. And I’m sure he did something important.  (President’s aren’t really my *thing*)  They all do right?  I mean, just look at Nixon or Regan, or Bush. I’m sure all of those assholes have a pretty great legacy, really.  Whichever President you like, you [...]



Beads for presidents?

February 16th, 2010 at 6:11 pm » Comments (0)

Only the nerdiest of us would bother, but yes, I did give out some Mardi Gras beads for those bonus point ops that you brought in. No flash required.  Not that I didn’t give out at least ONE set of beads last night to a well deserved fella down at CC Slaughter’s.  *ahem*  We’ll leave [...]



My Pick-Me-Up Bouquet (Belmont Inn)

February 12th, 2010 at 8:31 pm » Comments (5)

Oh my fellow Belmontians… how you heckle my French annunciation, how you defy my repeated requests to bring up your handouts, how you pay to play Pub Quiz with a pocketful of nickels and dimes… you’d think that I’d hate you by now (and maybe when I ask particularly hard questions, you become certain that [...]



Face Off: A Love Story (Space Room)

February 12th, 2010 at 7:19 pm » Comments (0)

Ah, what a love fest we had at the Space Room this past Wednesday. A snug little gathering of 40-something lovebirds, scrapping and fighting each other to the pub quiz death with all manner of questions. At one point I saw one team lobbing their ‘love hurts’ souvenirs at another team, hoping to maim or [...]
