Happily, I don’t have stomach flu. But this lingering cold is no picnic either, so I’m going to stay in and rest.

I’ll be there late. If someone who is there on time could let the hosts know that I’m open to the 4th place team picking a round for next week, that would be super.

**April 13**

I’m probably in tonight, as is my mom, who if nothing else will keep **inkysplotchy** in line with sharp glances.

Requested round: Cats.

Anyone else?

I’ll be there. Your mom coming to quiz must add one more item on the “Why I’m Glad I’m Not Kevin” list.

I’m planning to be there, and so is **Cervaise**.

“Cats” as in “Midnight. Not a sound from the pavement…” or as in the small furry things?

I know nearly nothing about either, but I’ll most likely be there.

**amarinth** : yes. I don’t think I’ll mention mom being there. You people are animals.

Well, Host Kevin thinks the audio round “will be fun and fairly inclusive.” He has also been tasked with writing rounds on Kevin Smith and ‘4:20’ aka Marijuana.

Even if he’s wrong about the audio round, I’m willing to take a chance on the night as a whole being fun and fairly inclusive. Thus, I shall show up to enjoy such. Anyone else?

I’ll be in deep hiding after my quiz last week, so I’ll see you guys in July!

Actually, I’ll be returning to my usual fencing hijinks, so if the schedule allows I’ll swing by.

This just in: Per David, there’s also going to be a Doctor Who round. So for the love of god, someone who’s watched Doctor Who since maybe 1985 should really be there.

I’m a maybe. I stayed home sick from work both yesterday and today, but I’m feeling relatively well right now. So the question is if I can overcome the feeling that I shouldn’t do anything fun after bailing on my job.

I know very little about Doctor Who.

I’ll be there, and **Cervaise** says he’ll be there with baklava. Yum!

I don’t think I’ve ever seen Doctor Who, but I know a decent amount about Starbucks.

**May 4**

I’m planning to be there tonight, and so is **Cervaise**. I’m hoping to bring some baked goods, but we’ll have to see how the day goes.

**Interrobang!?** is hosting, and there will be a round on The Beatles!

Anyone else?

I’m out this week (work trip (hi from the East Coast!)) and probably next (recovering from work trip (zzzz)).

</div>

I’ll be there. We should be able to come up with a positively smurfy name from some Beatles song title or another.
