So, who’s playing this week? **Interrobang!?** is hosting this week. **Cervaise** is a probably. I’m a yes, but I might be late. And there probably won’t be cupcakes this week, but there might be cookies.

I’ll be there, and will probably get there early. I don’t have much else to do with myself between getting out of work and going to the pub.

I’m in Washington DC, so I’m out.

Sorry I haven’t been around much - summer quarter is in full swing. I have a long break in late August through September, so we should be out and about more then.

**Bump** for July 14. Who’s in? **inkysplotchy** is thinking about it, and I can be there.

I’m in tonight, assuming nothing goes awry with the prep for a work event I have starting tomorrow.

**Cervaise** is in, too, sans girlfriend.

I am indeed interested. Always nice to take a mental beating instead of just a physical one.

Looking forward to extra fun at the pub tonight. I expect to get there during the early happy hour, with loads of time before the quiz. See you there.

I’ll be there early, too, and I’ll be bringing the bread that is currently rising in my kitchen. Yum!

I’ll be there, maybe not super early but earlier than my normal ‘sometime during round one’ entrance.

</div>

I propose we find someplace air-conditioned to gather tonight, even if it means bringing our own entertainment. This heat is ridiculous, and I was already roasting in the pub last week!

What say you all?

I have to bow out for tonight. See you next week in cooler circumstances.

</div>

I was going to say something similar–I don’t want to go the OP in this heat. I bet a lot of others will think the same thing, and the pot will be sad. I feel bad for David and Emily, but I’ve cooked off too many brain cells this week to sacrifice any more.

I don’t know of an air-conditioned venue. Does anybody?

[This list of Seattle joints with a/c](http://questionland.thestranger.com/questions/3752-which-cafes-restaurants-etc-have-air-conditioning) includes the Hopvine, where we’ve done – and won! – Tuesday trivia before (not sure they offer it every Tuesday, though).

[Hale’s Brewery Pub](http://halesbrewery.com/index.html) in Frelard (Balmont?) has A/C and great food and great drinks - plus dessert! They definitely get my vote.
