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 Many believed that Pluto had had its planetary status rescinded, but in reality it had seceded from the galaxy amidst a doctrine known as Interplanetary Destiny, a belief system governed by Pluto’s determination to be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.
The Drinking Round, with the help of a recently purchased deck of playing cards, was a game of What’s The Next Card? Who won? Boogie Down, that’s who! Free drinks!
In third place was Foxymoron with 49 points. In second was Rob’s Angels with 50. And taking the night (and the Drinking Round) was Boogie Down with 51 points! Come back next week for more King Trivia fun at the Glendale Tap!

When Loxandeus, God Of Lox, sprinkled his last dabs of lox on his last tray of cosmic split-in-two bagels that stretched well into the next galaxy, he got a text: “I need a favor” the message flashed at him. It was from Cheesonia, Goddess Of Cheese. “I’m planning a birthday party for Caelus’s son Kyle,” said Cheese (to her fiends), “and I need a lox piñata,” she said. “Again?” said Lox. “The last one was a scallop piñata and you know it!” said Cheese. “Fair enough,” said Lox, “when do you need it?” “Yesterday,” said Cheese. “I’ll get to work on it right away,” said Lox. “No, I mean literally yesterday,” said Cheese, “you’ll need to go back in time twenty-four hours and make this thing for the party, which was yesterday.” Lox found an errant wormhole (right near a 605 offramp) and tore through it like a rabbit does lettuce, arrived at Kyle’s party just before the guests arrived, whipped up one hell of a lox piñata, lynched it to a dying spruce and got the hell out of there, but not before seeing a past tense Cheese say: “Hey, if I forget to say thank you, thank you” and threw three hundred god dollars to him. When Lox returned to the present day, Cheese asked him: “Did I forget to say thank you?” and Lox was all: “No, you said it. You did forget to pay me though.” So Cheese gave him three hundred again having no idea that she already had, so Lox walked with a cool six hundred for the job. Here’s the point: There was absolutely no time travel tonight at the Glendale Tap. Let’s talk!
