We could just have the word Smack in every title, kind of like the old Smurf run.

Jonah’s Smacktastic College Fund, Smack this Quiz Up, Smackin II:Electric Bugaloo, The Quick and the Smacked, Indiana Smack and the Temple of Smack.

Smack, It’s What’s For Dinner. Smack to the Future.

Ok, I kind of feel like Bubba from Forrest Smack at this point, so…Smackcrest Out!

Too late! There’s a thread around here someplace, but typing while holding a baby is tricky, so you’ll have to find it yourself. 🙂

I’m out this week, of course, and I make no promises as to when I will return.

I could see the OP from my room, though – too bad he picked Thursday instead of Tuesday to make his appearance!

Yes, **Jonah’s College Fund** is $110 richer. So we split up our winnings, each promising to invest them in the manner we thought most suitable. Such as pull tabs, or sandwiches.

Rejected team name: **stargazer-shaped hole**.

I spent my portion of Jonah’s College Fund on booze and whores. Just think of what I can teach him when he’s 13!

Anyway, is anyone interested in doing Kate’s next week on Monday, just to shake things up (or I can’t make it on Tuesday and still want to play)? **Interrobang!?** also mentioned Jabu’s [QuizNight.net Seattle](http://quiznight.net/venue/47) , which is also a Monday venue.

I’m flexible. If the group wants to play Monday, that’s good for me.

Are we still thinking about tonight instead of tomorrow? The time for a decision is fast approaching.

Me, me bro and me mum are all up for tonight, and if you’re cool with it we’ll make it Kate’s this week.

Unless there’s a chorus of nays in the next few hours.

I’m still out this week, but I’m hoping to make it next week when **Interrobang!?** hosts again.

I make no promises, though, either as to my attendance or my answers if I manage to attend. Sleep deprivation does funny things to a person’s brain. 😉

Oh, that’s right. I’d better start writing some questions.

August 27 shall henceforth be known as VK Day, the day our team ( **Cow Tippers** ) declared victory in the quiz at Kate’s Pub. We ended up with 108 points, while two other teams tied for second with 100 each.

108? Wow, that’s a lot of questions. Were you there until midnight?

</div>

Most questions were worth 2 points. There were 40 traditional Q&A questions, 12 “identify the show that has this character” questions on a separate sheet of paper, and a visual round with 10 people. 132 possible points, since one of the 40 Q&A questions was worth a possible 10 points. (We got 0!)

So we were done about 10:15, and the quiz started at 8:30.

So, can we has trivia tonight? I’m assuming the Old Pequliar will be the place.

…and that wraps up this weeks installment of ‘Pimp my Website.’

I’ll be there looking for women with 21 year old underwear. Because, in a word, that’s HAWT!

Who wants fresh-caught Copper River salmon? I have like eighty gazillion pounds of it.

I’m hoping to be there tonight, if I can get the kid to eat at a convenient time beforehand.

I’ll take salmon! Yum.
