Hey gang, here’s the deal. I’m going to be gone to Mexico for the next three weeks to work at a dolphin facility. I will be keeping a journal of my trip on the website, keeping track of the animals, my alcohol consumption, and my success/failure with the senoritas. The Inquizzanator won the contest and will be taking over. While there will not be photos of the winners on the website, the victories will count in the standings. As of right now, all quizzoes are scheduled to go ahead. If there are any changes in the schedule, I’ll be sure to let you know. Each team may only play in one quizzo per week while I am gone. I plan to be back in action on August 31.
Month: August 2004

Viva la Quizzolution
I’m sorry, but quizzo has gotten the shaft from the local media for long enough. It’s time to represent. And remember, Johnny’s not doing this because he’s a glory hog. He’s doing it…for the children. Drop the editor a line at Philadelphia Magazine to let them know how disappointed you were in their failure to cover that most Philadelphian of institutions, quizzo. Even a simple, “What, no quizzo?” would be more than appreciated.
The Grand Inquizzanator’s Acceptance Speech
The Grand Inquizzator (AKA “Upper GI”, AKA Inquizzanator, AKA Roy S.) would
like to take this opportunity not only to refer to himself in the third person, but
also to sincerely thank each and every person who cast a vote on his behalf. I
hereby humbly accept the office of Rear Vice-Admiral in Charge of Pub Knowledge. As RVACPK, I swear to uphold the notoriously loose moral constructs set forth by Mr. Goodtimes himself at the onset of his despotic reign.
And I furthermore swear to concede the throne of Quizzo back to JGT upon his return, provided he is not killed by one of the dolphins he will be working with. Of course, dolphins are notoriously bloodthirsty animals; thus, the probability of his survival is certainly no more than 50%. Therefore, assuming his death in advance, I hereby pledge 4% of all future Quizzo earnings to whomever amongst his surviving relatives can successfully prosecute me for having trained the killer dolphins. Once again, thank you all for voting me, your better, into this most esteemed office. I find you all very attractive. No, seriously.
Trivia Art’s Concession Speech
Dear quizzoites,
I come before you today to speak of concessions.
Among my favorite concessions, the ones I really can?t get enough of:
At the Movies:
At the CoreStates/First Union/Wachovia/LastBankStanding Center I enjoy dining on:
I lost? You want me to concede? Are you serious? The Grand Inquizzanator knows more losers with nothing better to do than vote for substitute quizzo master than I do? Impossible! You think I?m going to take this lying down? I know Photoshop. It would be awful if any sort of scandal found the Grand Inquizzanator in compromising photos.
Congratulations Grand Inquizzinator, you have the voice. But let it be known, if anything happens to the winner, I?m ready to step in and replace the Grand Inquizzanator much like Suzette Charles was ready to assume Vanessa Williams? crown.
Grand Inquizzanator Wins
The Grand Inquizzanator was able to pull away from Trivia Art in the final hours of the “Be the Next Johnny Goodtimes” Contest to win, 167-130. The JGT Ethics Committee is recounting the votes by hand, but since this is impossible, it is believed that GI will remain the victor. Trivia Art is expected to submit a concession letter later today. Art will be the Vice-Quizmaster.

Grand Inquizzanator Responds!
The Grand Inquizzator quickly responded to Art’s last minute plea with the following:
I’m not in charge of the website. I couldn’t post a photo if my life depended
on it (unless Trivia Art showed me how). I’ve known JGT for about a year tops.
But when I was born, my mother took me in her arms whilst watching Jeopardy and explained to me my destiny. Aged only 12 days, I somehow grasped every word. I would do quizzo. Then we watched Alien. The connection may have been tenuous, but nonetheless I understood that this man Art, who I’d never met (and still haven’t) was the Alien, come to supplant the innards of red-blooded Americans with the demon seed of mediocre trivia.. Now, mere minutes from fulfilling my destiny, that same Alien would have you believe that he is the torch-bearer of quality Philly Quizzo. It just ain’t so, folks. Vote for the Great Enunciator, the Inquizzator. Like I said, I really need this gig. Plus, some small payoffs might be arranged as well. PS – I’ll be famous soon, and we’ll be friends forever, I promise!
