So, this week Tuesday trivia, next week, a tossup between Monday or Tuesday. Troy is the deciding vote. I know we’d all like to meet you for beer and tough questions.

For tonight, I’m in and so is my brother. Who else? It would be cool if we got enough for two reasonable-sized teams, rather than our recent trend of just one over the limit–resulting in someone sitting out or two smaller-than-optimum teams.

I’m a “maybe, leaning toward no” at this point – I have to be at work at 6:30 tomorrow morning, and I’m already behind on my sleep.

If I do show, and we have 6 people, I’ll be happy to sit out since I’ll probably leave early anyway.

I’ll be working well into this evening, so I’m out. Good luck to the team(s).

I’ll be there, skating in around 8 or so. 'Cause that’s how I roll. (I heard a toddler say that, and we all know that toddlers are hip to cool sayings.)

Yeah, but you also get to leave earlier than 5:00. And you’re not growing a whole other person inside you, a person whose current favorite pastime is getting up underneath my ribs so I have a constant stitch in my side. Rotten kid. 😉

Jeez! You need to have this baby so you can stop bitching about being pregnant.

And start bitching about nursing, diapers, lack of sleep, lack of babysitters …

So, anyone heard from **Troy McClure SF**? Are we doing trivia tonight or tomorrow night? Enquiring minds want to know.

I haven’t heard anything, and at this point I don’t know that I can do trivia tonight. Let’s plan on tomorrow – Troy, you’re welcome to join us at the [Old Pequliar in Ballard](http://www.yelp.com/biz_link?biz_id=wyEK9aAqfso5P2BuKXj_6A) Tuesday night.

Tomorrow works for me. I’ll post then if my brother also confirms his intention to attend.

Okay, my brother and I will be at the Old Pequliar tonight, for some great trivia action. Hopefully others will be there as well.

**Troy McClure SF** , if you’re coming, just ask the bartender for James’ team. I’m not going to tell you which one of us is James, but they’ll know who to point you at. I don’t think any of use have explained the Dope to them, so asking for the Doper team would confuse them. 😛

Or get you pointed to multiple teams. Especially the ones with hoodies and DMB shirts.

Ba Zing!

I can be there…8ish.

What, no **victory!**? You’re slipping, **Cervaise**.

I’ve talked to at least one other team who plans on skipping future nights with this host. That makes two out of the rotation.

Got home last night and instead of turning on the computer I immediately got on the phone with the honey bunny. Man’s got to have priorities.

I hear the host tonight is a pedantic jerk. Since I grew up with one, I’m in. Who else?
