QUIZ RECAP

When Trainea, Goddess Of Trains, linked her caboose to the rear of her four trillionth boxcar (and this is not a euphemism for something untoward; she was literally linking light-year-long train cars that went from Alpha Centauri to just past Zeta II Reticula in bright, snaking formations that sparkled all the way to the planet Gloxamphidon), she thought for sure she was done and could take a break in the eternal sauna. But then the constellations above her reformed into a gigantic text message: “Hey, Train (to her friends)! It’s Plutonia! I need a hand!” Pluté (to her friends) was the goddess of Pluto, the smallest planet in the solar system. Many believed that Pluto had had its planetary status rescinded, but in reality it had seceded from the galaxy amidst a doctrine known as Interplanetary Destiny, a belief system governed by Pluto’s determination to be recognized in any quadrant of the known and unknown universe. “What can I do for you, Pluté?” “As you know, Pluto is having their one millionth birthday tomorrow and due to poor planning by the governing body, we need to arrange a dunk tank. You know. For the kids!” In a manner of milliseconds, Train constructed a dunk tank made from the mitochondria of a Mars bat and the translucent gas rings of Saturn and before anyone knew it (yes, including god), the children of Pluto were enjoying throwing softballs made from comet dust and dunking each other in a large vat of Mercury lava. Here’s the point: Trivia night last night at the Glendale Tap was pretty close to this! Let’s talk.
