When Skyaneus, God Of Clouds, pushed his last cirrostratus to its right position for the day, he thought he’d be done until Saturday (his replacement, Stratusaneus, would take over while he was vacationing in Thessaloniki). But at the last minute, Sky (to his friends) saw a stray cumulus roiling in its own neighborhood of the sky. And this stray wasn’t just off on its own; it also seemed to Sky to be escaping. “Cloud on the run!” yelled Sky as he zoomed over to it, grabbed it by its collar and said: “Where you think you’re going son? And how do you have a collar?” The cloud, Puffy, answered: “Look, it’s a long story, but you gotta let me go!” Here’s the point: When you see the police chasing a cloud, sometimes that cloud did nothing wrong, which is a great metaphor for trivia at the Glendale Tap last night. Let’s talk!

When Wittiness, God Of Jokes, delivered his last zinger to the crowd of five billion floating in the galaxy at the One Billionth Annual Godly Talent Show Of The Whole Damn Universe, he said: “But I guess that makes Zeus my dad!” Up until that point, Wit (to his friends) was a having a pretty good set. But he had just broken the only real rule in godlike comedy: Don’t mention Zeus. The Z Man. The Top Dog. The Big Cosmic Enchilada. Wit had done it and immediately started to pay a price. “Wow,” he said, “tough crowd.” “NOT AS TOUGH…AS THIS!” boomed a voice from deep in Zeta II Reticula. Then, a large tomato came hurling out of the vortex, like the glass Phantom Zone triangle in “Superman II.” It sucked Wit up into it, whereupon he said: “This shouldn’t be so bad. I hear they’re a lot like working on cruise ships.” Here’s the point: This kind of thing happens all the time at The Glendale Tap on King Trivia night. Let’s talk!

When Cherraneus, God Of Pitless Cherries, hurled his last few cherries at the Wall Of Doom, a nine million-mile high wall for athletic climbing, he thought for sure he had thrown them hard enough that they’d stick. But the last few he shot didn’t stick so well. Instead, they started to slowly sag and droop down the wall, which was troublesome for those athletic gods who were climbing it. You see, Cherr (to his friends) would throw a cherry with the force of a World War II-era Howitzer and they would stay fastened unmovable into the wall, thus providing stairs for those climbing. But these last few weren’t sticking and many gods did slide down into the Abyss Of Then, a time portal that sent them not only back in time but a place in time in which they really screwed up hard. “Don’t make me experience that again!” screamed Rocking, Goddess Of Concrete as she slid back to her high school prom in which Danny Less threw up on her tiara. “No, not again!” wailed Kumquaticus, God Of Lesser Fruits, as he inched inexorably to that time in boy scouts where he had six seconds to tie three sheepshanks and couldn’t do it. Here’s the point: Remembering back to to past failures is fine as long as it doesn’t scrape up your knees on a downward slide to hell. Let’s talk!
The Drinking Round was a departure. We played Race To The Bottom. Each team wrote down a number on a piece of paper and whoever wrote down the lowest without being repeated by another team won free drinks. The winner? Eureka, with 5! Brilliant and amazing!
