QUIZ RECAP

You know, it's that time of year after Christmas and before the new year begins that a
certain kind of melancholy sets in. It's a sort of break or breather if you will, when
the excitement and hectic rush up to December 25th, a date that's more about the self
imposed deadline of economic consumerism than it is about the birth of a spiritual
savior; And, the short gap we give ourselves until January 1st brings a new annum to us.
Presumably, we get that brief interlude to look back at ourselves, our decisions and our
actions, not only individually, but as a nation, a culture and as human beings. After a
curt tip of the hat to contemplation, we then stupefy our selves with inebriants, usher in
the next set of numbers which represent man's puny dominance over the march of time, then
carry on without any change in our routine. Reflect, rinse, repeat. If that makes you
melancholy, then do what we do... Play Trivia! It isn't trivial at all!

Pickles on a Plate took top honors in last night's, year end King Trivia Pub Quiz at the
Lion & Crown in Allen. With a 43 point victory, they beat out Deadly Alliance (aka Blood,
Bath & Beyond/Ship It!), who staked out second place while Street Smarts closed third.
IPMP just barely got shut out of the winners by one point, but they're getting better!
Newbies Blonde Malibu did well for first timers. We hope to see them back. And welcome
back to Too Drunk to Remember, who did remember to come back and play!

Only one team managed to suss out that Michelle Pfeiffer was the object of desire in our
Find-the-Connection Round and the countries that made the list of top beef consumers in
the world surprised all. (The Republic of Texas was left out, and that confused a lot of
folks!)

Quiz Master Lou will return in 2020! Happy New Year, everybody!
