So, who’s in tonight? I made some cookies yesterday that I’ll share, if there are any left by then…

I’ll be there if there are cookies.

If there are no cookies, I’m getting right back in the car and heading home again.

</div>

Yes, but what **kind** of cookies?

If they’re the sort of cookies that evil websites insist on attempting to deposit on my computer, then no thank you.

Peanut butter, yes. Evil computer cookies, no.

Just so we’re clear.

And I’ll be there tonight. It’ll be my last one for a while.

They’re homemade Oreos! Jumbo-sized! I did get the recipe online, but I doubt these cookies will do anything to your computer. Unless you crumble them into your machine, or something. But that wouldn’t be their fault, would it?

</div>

I can’t go to trivia tonight. I don’t know if my brother will go or not.

I was really looking forward to the return of Interrobang!? as quizmeister, but it is not to be. I didn’t get enough done over the weekend, and there’s a deadline looming.

</div>

Hello and welcome to June 5th, 2007. I’m officially putting myself down as doubtful for tonight (25% chance of showing up.) If my left quad decides that it wants to be sore for over 2 hours of prolonged activity, I’m going to go hurt my brain and eat grease.

That is, unless no one else is showing up.

I’m at about 50% … hoping to come but work may interfere.

</div>

I’m game, but if people won’t be there I can finally skip a week without feeling guilty – the host has done it before. (It’s the guys from NAMBLA, so expect a good quiz.)

I will be watching a documentary about war atrocities. Good times.

Ooh! At the 45:19 mark, in the UN scene, I’m in the 4th row, shaking my head disapprovingly at the Security Council. Just a bit part, I know, but I’m hoping to star in as many documentaries as possible.

It’s a slow day at work.

I think my brother and I are going to be there, but either of us could be torpedoed by bosses.

Call us 78.349%. Too soon to tell if that’ll trend up or down.

I’m also a “maybe.” I might need sleep more than I need trivia.

In the words of the _Baywatch_ theme song, I’ll be there.

</div>

Unless I actually fall asleep on the couch after I get home from work (which is unlikely, because lying down makes the heartburn worse!), I’ll be there.

Some sentences just don’t work out of context.

I won’t be there - I’ve been and will be previously scheduled on Tuesdays for a while.

We even “dominated,” according to, uh, NAMBLA.

Well done all.

Congratulations, my droogs.

And after yesterday’s movie, I’d just like to state, for the record, that “war atrocities are bad.” Just in case there was any, y’know, uncertainty, or whatever.

Round 8 (second photo round) was identifying stills from movie studio intros – Warner Brothers, Castle Rock, etc. With you there we might’ve moved beyond dominance into overwhelming force.

And the actor in round 7 was Kevin Pollak, who we couldn’t ID from 7 films.

Also, maybe war atrocities are really just misunderstood, you know? Maybe they mean well, and if the right person got involved they could make a few changes and show everyone else how wonderful war atrocities could be.
