Wow! Sounds like my kind of guy. Too bad I’m hosting tonight … wait a minute.

I’ll be there… possibly for the last time as a non-parent! But I’m hoping for another couple of weeks.

</div>

Since the great traffic meltdown of '07 has so far failed to materialize – and I suspect that if it does materialize, it won’t be this evening – I’ll be there.

I will most likely not be there tonight – I’m on partial bedrest, and there are signs that this kid may be making his appearance this week! So I’ll probably be out for a while. 🙂

I’m 50-50 — running on fumes (and coffee) after a go-go weekend in Vancouver.

Heck, say 60-40.

Who’s hosting?

I might have a speakerphone, but aren’t cell phones against the trivia rules? 😉

You’ll be within a couple of blocks; how about two tin cans and some string?

Earlyish bump, because I’m so darn excited that my statistics class is over (chance of decent grade: 53.14159%, give or take) and I can has trivia tomorrow. Who else might I meet there?

Apropos of nothing, this is my early favorite for the subtitle of the 2008 Seattle trivia thread.

I’m planning on being there tomorrow.

We still need a long term team name. No more rotation. Notice must be served that we will serve all other teams. In the bad way, not the waiter kind of way.

How about a little of both? Some smackdown, some waitservice. Y’know, like, “Cheesecake Smacktory,” or “Smacker Barrel,” or “Smacklebees.”

Smacklebee’s: beatin’ good in the neighborhood.

I’m planning on being there. My brother’s work schedule indicates a no for him.

**stargazer** , you can’t deliver yet. I haven’t even started crocheting the booties! My vacation somehow didn’t give me a whole lot of yarn time.

True, but the short-term name for this week should be **Jonah’s College Fund**.
