I'm disappointed.

This week was one of the most newsworthy weeks, Quizzo-teamname-wise, that I can remember. There was that whole crazy polygamist compound in Texas thing, Olympic protests across the globe, American Airlines suspending thousands of flights and leaving tens of thousands stranded and Charlton Mother Fucking Heston died!! It was a veritable treasure chest of crass, disrespectful and mean-spirited bits, but only two teams dove in.

Think of what could have been.... Take These Pens From Our Cold, Dead, Hands, We're Only Here Because American Airlines Canceled Our Flight, The West Texas Mormon Pederasts Ok, maybe the last one isn't too clever, but at least it would have been an attempt!

Other than the depressing number of current-event themed names, the quiz went as well as it could for this continually losing bloggist. On the bright side, I don't come in 2nd place every week! That would be a fate worse than just consistently losing ; )

Anywhoo...Last night was crazy crowded. There was even a irritating, drunk heckler! He cursed and made fun of Irish Johns accent. Ever clever, those inebriated and random voices.

As for the game, well, the questions about fencing, Bulgaria and Michael Caine movies were my demise, but apparently not so much for these teams.

2nd place prize, which at this point must be like a punch in the stomach, was the French Rollerblading Police made up of Clinton, Cap'n Rick, Tone Loc, Russel, Shaun and Jewel.

As for 1st place (if you're reading the blog, cograts!! If you don't read it, i hated you anyway) was You Damn Dirty Liberal Apes consisting of Jim, Katie, Earle, Jonathan and Keith. Great Charlton Heston reference, too!

Congrats winners, and to the rest of you, there is always next week!
