I’ll be there tonight, but I’m going to have to boycott next week so I can reread the 80-question quiz I put together so I could back you up on a moment’s notice. 😉 ---

Apologies. I will still be unable to make it. Still in rehearsals for a play. ---

I can’t make it this time. Sorry. lissener, does that mean you can play next week? ---

All righty then. Looks like I’ll be abstaining this week as well. ---

**inkysplotchy** just proposed doing trivia at **lissener** ’s second gig, the Ravenna Ale House, tomorrow night. (That is, Wednesday, June 7.) We’re going to go. Anyone else up for it? ---

I won’t promise, but it’s a good idea. I’ve wanted to see this supposed dive. I’ll let you know tomorrow. ---

I’ll try for tomorrow, does anyone want to share an address? ( I think I know where it is, but I’d hate to demand trivia at the wrong “dive.”) ---

Apparently it’s at 2258 NE 65th Street. At least, that’s the address I’ll be going to, so if it’s the wrong place, we can all be there together. ---

8:00, same as the other places? I might be able to make it. ---

It better be 8:00, or I’ll be unhappy and late. Or really early, I suppose. ---

I will be there. Told you I’d let you know. ---

Well, that was reasonably fun. It helps that **Saltire** , **inkysplotchy** and I obliterated the rest of the field, even if “the rest of the field” was 3 other teams. Nice hosting job, **lissener** , but I have to say in future we’ll probably still lean towards the Old Pequliar. Also, Ravenna’s quiz starts at 8:30, for future reference. ---

Sorry I didn’t make it, I fell asleep. I woke up at 11:00, figured it would be a little late to show up. :smack: ---

Who’s in tonight? I’m most likely up for it. Also, unless things have changed behind the scenes, I’ll be hosting next Tuesday’s quiz. And I promise that this one is a little less challenging. ---

I should just poke in to say when I _can_ make it, shouldn’t I? I can’t make it tonight. Sorry. ---

I’m most likely a ‘no,’ unless I get extrodinarily productive in the coming hours. So don’t count on me, but don’t be too shocked if I appear. ---

This just in: **lissener** will definitely be there, so if anyone else does feel like showing up, there will be SDMB representation.
