Since it’s so late in the day, everyone’s probably already assuming I’m not coming. Everyone is correct. See you next time. ---

It’s Tuesday. You know what that means (besides Dawn being in trouble again). ---

I’m out for tonight – too much catching up in the wake of The Week Of Parents And In-Laws. Good luck, and see you next week. ---

I’m in. Not, however, like Flynn. ---

I’m in. Cupcakes unlikely, though. ---

I’m in barring any breakdowns of the Oslo accord at fencing tonight. Though the lack of cupcakes is…disappointing. Le sigh. ---

I’m in - but will arrive very close to (or slightly after 8). Which isn’t in itself unusual, but the fact that I know it in advance is. ---

And another trivia night will go by without me. I’m almost certain I’ll be back to normal next week. Check this out: [http://world-affairs.org/public\_programs\_TNTchamp2008.htm](http://world-affairs.org/public_programs_TNTchamp2008.htm) Expensive, but really looks like quite the trivia-geek party. Unfortunately, some of us (meaning: myself) aren’t so good at the world affairs trivia. ---

I’m not hosting this Tuesday – my night is next week. And I’ve been asked to attend our block party tomorrow night instead. Which means I’m out for trivia – unless we’d like to do a Wednesday night quiz. (I’d put Thursday on the table, too, but I’m going out of town for the weekend, so I’d like the packing time.) Anyone up for a Wednesday gig? Any preferences on where? Nothing on Quiznight’s inventory stands out as a must-go, but most of them would be interesting. Perhaps Beveridge Place in West Seattle? ---

I don’t have rehearsal tomorrow (Tuesday), so I could do something, but I do on Wednesday, so I couldn’t. Thursday’s open at the moment, also. Please don’t give my availability too much weight. 🙂 ---

I’m available Tuesday but not Wednesday. If I can make it this week, great, otherwise I’ll see you next week. ---

I’m available any day, as long as I know about it early enough. I’m finished moving, but we’re still cleaning the old place. I already begged off to go to trivia tonight, but if you all are doing a different night, I could go scrub something after work today By the way, my new place is near [The Northside Grill](http://thenorthsidegrill.com/events.html), known for Tuesday trivia and Moroccan food. But that also means it’s a lot more convenient to the Old Pequliar, so all is great. ---

I’m out tonight – I’ve been up since 3am trying to get the child back to sleep, so my brain is barely functioning. I’m available other nights, but I make no promises about my contribution capabilities. ---

I’m definitely out tonight. It sounds like the rest of the week is dicey for people as well – so should we bag it entirely? I hate to bail on **Cervaise** ’s last available night for a couple of months, but sacrifices must be made for the theater, I suppose. ---

I can do either, but I’d need to know by 3ish if we’re playing tonight so I know to leave practice early or not. ---

[QUOTE=Interrobang!?] I hate to bail on **Cervaise** ’s last available night for a couple of months, but sacrifices must be made for the theater, I suppose. [/QUOTE] For what it’s worth, the rehearsal schedule is currently clear for the Tuesday after next, also. ---

So I’m assuming we’re off for tonight. See you next week. ---

Apparently we missed out on a no-show host last night. (Curse you, Ashley!) Kevin borrowed a laptop and read 8 rounds off of a British quiz site, so there was trivia, but not the finely crafted trivia that’s the OP at its best. ---

Host or no host, I can be there tonight if others can. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754.md?page=12) [Next page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/seattle-pub-trivia-08-with-a-vengeance/432754.md?page=14)
