QUIZ RECAP
When Larrondeus, God Of Ladders, played his last piece of Music For Mallets at the One Millionth Annual “Beats By Gods” fest, he was the only percussionist who didn't fashion his instrument from the femur bones of those obliterated at the Great Culling the night before. Instead, he diced up his own father’s ladder (with his permission) to fashion a quick twenty sticks and attach them to an equal number of long, horizontal dowels to vigorously beat on twenty different timpani heads simultaneously, thus making the biggest banging racket of all the gods competing that night. “Unfair!” roared the competition, “we mutilated many human celebrants for the right to bang away as we wish!” “Yes,” said Larr (to his friends), but I instead used this stuff called wood to do it.!” “We will look comparatively barbaric,” answered the other gods. “Um,” said Larr, “weren’t you already that?” As Larr continued this rhythmic thumping of ladder-oriented music, the other gods were suddenly set upon by the ghosts of their victims. Swarms of limping, legless sprites spiritually assailed them, snatched back their legs from the gods, and beat them about the face and neck with them. Larr provided much-loved percussive accompaniment to this event, as the ghosts eventually reattached their limbs and went into the afterlife with more upright posture. Here’s the point: The same thing happened at King Trivia night at the Glendale Tap. Let’s talk:

QUIZ RECAP
When Alphabeus, God Of Spelling Bees, was finishing up the championship word—which was AUTOCHTHONOUS—he was thinking about what he was gonna have for lunch, so he almost got it confused with ANCHOVY and had to start again. In front of five planets watching, Alph (to his friends) said: May I start again?” The Universe sighed and said: “Start again.” And Alph went again from the top: “Autochthonous. A. U. T. O.—“ And then again, Alph’s mind wondered and started to think about what kind of car he was gonna take to the anchovy place. (A lot of people only see anchovies things you put on pizza, but Alph was one of those gods that liked ‘em straight out of the bag, A date once asked him: “You don’t get them on pizza?” and Alph said: “I eat them out of a bag. You know…like at the movies.” Once these thoughts ruled his roost, he had to start again: “Sorry, I’m getting distracted up here. Can I start again?” And at that, Zeus (Zed to his friends) chimed in from on high and said: “One more delay, Alph, and I’ll send this entire universe into the wood chipper.” And with that, Alph buckled down and said: “A.U.T.O.C.H.T.O.N.O.U.S.” and shot five hundred miles into the air, eschewing his winning trophy so as to get to the anchovy house before it closed. Here’s the point: This is exact ting happened last night at the Glendale Tap on King Trivia Night. Let’s talk!
The Drinking Round was a Wednesday Off: the best dance impression of Wednesday’s dance from The Adams Family took free drinks and When In Ramen took it. It was the look of disdain while doing the dance that won the judges (me) over. Beers!

QUIZ RECAP
When Pizzaneus, God Of Wood-Fired Dough, threw his last pie into the kiln, he said: “Aaaaand I retire! That’s it! No more pies!” Then—from right behind him, with a way-too-loud blast of vocal fortitude—came: “Can I get a pizza please?” Pizz (to his friends) spun right around and said: “Didn’t you hear what I said?” said Pizza, “I’m retired.” “Look,” said Aaroneus, God Of Errands, I gotta get a pie with anchovies and kumquats to Zeus’s daughter’s quinceañera by twelve or I’m dead!” “Which daughter?” asked Pizz. “His three thousandth one,” said Aaron (to his friends), “Exfolia. She’s all about the kumquats.” So, without another word, both Pizz and Aaron flew to the one kumquat tree in the land, loaded up a trebuchet of four million kumquats, went to Exfolia’s quinceañera, and lobbed all of them right at her, just as she was busting open a pińata. Here’s the point: The same thing totally happened last night at the Glendale Tap.
