I hope to be there tonight, but given that I’m currently too tired for extraneous punctuation, I may also be too tired for trivia. So we’ll see.

Speaking of punctuation, [do you know yours](http://www.mentalfloss.com/quiz/quiz.php?q=257&p=1)?

I’ll be there. And apparently there’s a new guy hosting next week – should we risk it, or decide on somewhere else to play?

😉

I’m up for tirivia. I’d say we give the new guy a chance, but if people are chomping at hte bit to try a new venue I wouldn’t scream and kick. Too much.

8 out of 10. I don’t feel too bad, I transposed the Guillemets and the Chevron. Beat that! 🙂

Well, go ahead! We’ll have a bake-off. 🙂

Bump. Planning on cupcakes for tonight, if I can get home from work in time to whip up a batch.

I love it when bake offs work in my favor. I’ll be there.

I’m looking forward to a nice, relaxing time beating myself in the forhead with a pint glass, trying to force a correct answer out. It’ll be better than last week, when I knew all the answers.

I fear I will not be bringing cupcakes. Will chewing gum do?

</div>

I’ll be there. And I really think this is a fun quiz. Which means, if history is any guide, that it’s much harder than I meant it to be and I’ll be cringing inside by the time the movie round kicks off.

Oh, and you can [win free beer](http://seattlest.com/2008/05/06/seattlest_trivi_13.php) by answering a question early. I’d hate for you to miss out on the opportunity.

I don’t think I’ll be bringing cupcakes, but I might bring other baked goods, if I get home from a meeting early enough. Or I might just wait until next week, to spread out the baked-y goodness.

Yay! Pumpernickel!  
No promises on the cupcakes. Depends on when I get out of here.

I’m in for tonight. Old Pequliar.

Anyone else?

I’m planning on being there, but will probably not be bringing baked goods - I have a meeting. ☹

I was going to make [this](http://blog.seattletimes.nwsource.com/allyoucaneat/2008/05/your_weekend_assignment_bake_t.html) over the weekend, but a plumbing situation got in the way.

Not really sure how exciting it would be to bring to trivia, anyway. Still, FYI.

And I’ll be there tonight. And next week.

And then I’m out for four weeks for the film festival. So make 'em count, people!

I’ll be there. Not planning on baking, but maybe I should bring something store-bought. We’ll see.
