QUIZ RECAP

Despite the near freezing weather there was a decent turnout at Dunn Brothers Coffee last night.  When your specialty is hot beverages, that does tend to encourage attendance!  Quiz Master Lou himself imbibed a couple of javas to keep his anti-freeze topped off!  Just think of Edward Hopper's Nighthawks but with a trivia contest; And no, that wasn't a question...  

The Bumble Bees bumbled a couple of Double-or-Nothing gambles in a bid to play catch up after a burst of energy at the opening gate from the other three teams.  The Bowtie Alpacas, JFFC and the Rockerfellers all succeeded in the first round at doubling their scores which no doubt led to the bumble, thus putting the poor bees into fourth position. 

JFFC, augmenting their numbers with a pair of parents, won first place quite handily.  Rockerfellers snagged second and the Alpacas captured third while entertaining QM Lou with illustrations on their answer sheets all night!  (The answer is YES - Society is devolving back to pictograph writing!) 

The quiz itself was a nice diversification of minutia, with the round six Hand-Out Round being QM Lou's fave.  Matching the alien to their home planet was more daunting than one might imagine. Who belongs to Remulak and whom to Melmac?  What about the planet Jakku?  (Hint: Only George Lucas could come up with such a stupid name...)  And what in the heck was the name of the planet where The Great Gazoo hails from?!? That's the kind of round that was...  

Until next week my friends, stay warm, and remember... 

Winter's here with all her bite.  

Barring World's End or fire fight,

I'll see you next Thursday night.  

I wish I may, I wish I might,
