I’m planning to be there, possibly with baked goods. Cervaise will be there, too. ---

**October 16, 2012** Host: Jason Requested topic: '80s Space Movies Audio hints: “The Pound Is Sinking” by Paul McCartney, and “It’s Money that Matters” by Randy Newman. COULD THE THEME BE MONEY? Regardless, I can’t be there because of a debate watch/potluck. On the whole, I’d rather be at trivia, but … ---

I’ll be there. I’ll get the debate in predigested chunks over the next 3 weeks, I suppose. ---

Unlikely…but at least I won’t be watching the debate. ---

Jason and Pete are hosting. An audio hint is Stevie Wonder’s “Superstition.” I don’t know what last week’s 4th-place team chose as a round topic, but I bet it’s awesome. I’m in, and bringing a friend. You? ---

I’ll be there. The requested topic was “Beer.” ---

Beer? Screw that, I’m not going. Actually, I can’t go because I need to work on a workshop I’m giving on Friday, so regrets for the third week in a row. ---

See? I was right. Beer is awesome. ETA: **Interrobang!?** is totally wrong about beer and would have cost us mucho points. Good riddance. ---

If, at about 7:30 tonight, A) I am still awake, and B) I remember that it’s Tuesday and not Monday, I’ll be there. Otherwise, you’ll have to wait till next week to hear about my brother’s wedding. 🙂 I’d say the odds are about 50-50. ---

Given that I may have to help run the quiz, since Jonathan will be moving, that would just be salt in the wound and further indication that I should stay far, far away from meanies like Mr. **Thorp**. ---

I’m in - I know nearly nothing at all about beer. I’m vaguely aware that hops are involved but nothing beyond that. I have, however, sung Superstition at Karaoke. ---

**Cervaise** is also in, so it looks like we’ll need to split into 2 teams. ---

\*\*October 30 \*\* I don’t remember who’s hosting, but the requested round is, I believe, “Things with Tentacles.” I’m planning to be there, and I’m bringing goodies. **Cervaise** says he’ll be there, too. Anyone else? ---

I’ll be there. Jonathan and Justin are hosting. The audio hint is Tenacious D’s Tribute. Perhaps a novelty song theme? ---
