Thank goodness you don’t listen to NPR!

I listen to NPR once a week at most…while driving to the OP for trivia. Fresh Air is enough for me.

</div>

I’m planning to be there, and I do listen to NPR… but I suspect that won’t help much, from what they posted on the FB page last week.

I seem to be taking a long trivia vacation. I’m out again.

I catch them using snippets of Warren Zevon songs now and then, but those aren’t really the theme songs and it may just be the Boston station, anyway.

I’m iffy. And I only listen to Marketplace & This American Life which aren’t technically NPR. And I’m not sure I recognize their themesongs.

**Sept. 6**

Who’s going tonight? Some guy named James is the host, and the requested round is Math Word Problems. Also, there’s a hint about the audio round on the FB page – a link to Wilson Pickett’s “Land of 1000 Dances.”

I can’t play, but I’ll be there. **Cervaise** will be there. My mom and my wife will be there.

Anyone else?

I’m hoping to be there, but I’ve got a cold and I don’t know if I’ll be up for it. I’ll text one of you when I have a better idea.

Cylon & Garfunkel are hosting, and “Etiquette” is the requested round. I’m planning to be there, as is **Cervaise**. Anyone else?

No family in town this week, which means I need to be home for night-nights and such.

I’ve seen the quiz. You’ll have a good time.

**September 20**

Pete & David are hosting a special all-'90s theme night. Requested round is '90s cartoons.

I’m a probably not, and if I do get there it’ll be late. **Cervaise** will probably be there.

What about _you_?

Regrettably not. Fortunately for the team, I know as little about '90s cartoons as I do about…well, most things, really.
