A’ight, peeps. I’m heading out to see the Phillies game, so behave yourselves while I’m gone. In the meantime, read up on the worthless piece of human waste who runs Geno’s Cheesesteaks on Philadelphia Will Do. It looks like Bobby Badtimes took the time to post a comment below the write-up. Then, just to prove that the more things change, the more they stay the same, a look into the time machine shows us that two years ago Johnny was every bit as successful with women as he is now. Oh, and if anybody runs into Eve, please have her call me. Thanks.

A few years ago, I had an ill-fated quizzo at Moda in Old City, where they refused to turn down the house music and where a bunch of guys in $200 shirts walked in about halfway through the game and just stared in disbelief, as if they had never seen a bunch of nerds before. I lasted a week. But one good thing came of it: Avi and Deborah hung out for the first time. They have played quizzo intermittently in the years since. And then, two weeks ago, Avi popped the question, and she said yes. (He didn’t drop the question at Moda, in case you were wondering.) Congratulations, guys!

Hey gang, got another gig at the planetarium this Friday. It is part of the Franklin’s Institute’s Animation exhibit which is currently going on. Yes, that does mean that there will be some questions about cartoons and such, but not all questions will be about them. This will probably be a bit more like regular quizzo, except that of course there will be a laser light show between rounds. Last time the between round stuff was decent, but not great, but I have been assured that this time they will totally kick ass. This is gonna be a lot of fun. And yes, there will be booze. I will post more details on the site as I get them.

Without boring you with details, last night was emotional and sleepless, and I staggered out of bed this morning convinced that this was going to be a really lousy day. I knew one thing-that there was no news that could possibly cheer me up, not a single thing. And then I got an email from Palestra Jon, which led me to this. Excitedly, I went to this. By now I was giddy, and I went here. Now, for those of you who are too lazy to click links, here’s the basics: Anthony Dimeo, the local blueberry mogul who has on numerous occasions threatened to sue me for things I’ve written about him on this website, got struck down in a court of law in a case against internet bad boy Tucker Max. Or, as Max so eloquently states, “I BEAT THE EVER LOVING S*** OUT OF ANTNEE DIMEO!!” So thank you, Anthony. Thank you for being such a total f****** douchebag that your failures bring me a ray of sunshine on an otherwise cloudy day. And thank you, America. Because you give people like Anthony the right to think that being born with a silver spoon in their mouth gives them carte blanche to impose their will on the little guy, but you also give the little guy the chance to call these types of people exactly what they are. Total f****** douchebags.

Before he went solo, Jimi Hendrix played with the Upsetters, the back-up band for what famous performer?

Hey, it’s 4:50 on a Friday, so I’m sure nobody reading this, but apparently my interview is online. Click here if you couldn’t afford to get your self a real Metro. Just had pizza at Marra’s, so I’ll have that review up in a few days, and I’ll have quizzo results up, uh, asap.

This from this week’s Sports Illustrated: Dallas starDirk Nowitzki confessed that to ease tension at the free throw line, he sometimes hums Hasselhoff’s immortal Looking for Freedom, a hit in Germany when Nowitzki was a youth.

First off, pick up a copy of today’s Metro. There’s an interview with me in there (Trivia Art says the interview makes me seem “kind of creepy”.. Secondly, I’ve got a new quizzo event at the Fels Planetarium on friday, June 2nd! It’s a part of their animation exhibit, so you can expect some questions about cartoons, but not all. There’s also some cool new stuff for the laser light show. And this time they’ll have their first string guy at the controls. OK, so I’m finally gonna get my Taconnelli’s review up today in the great pizza hunt. I promise. There were some major upsets at quizzo last night, and those stories will be up later. And if you haven’t read the now legendary story of the Rhubarb bake-off, click here. It’s pretty hilarious.

It has been a technologically disastrous week, as my iPod crapped out at O’Neals on Tuesday. Fortunately Brian had his on him, complete with “The Message”. I then ran home after that quizzo to bust out the old cd player for the Bards, which I used again last night. At the Bards, the wire between the cd player and the amp caught on fire, but I put it out quickly, and miraculously, the thing still worked. Then at the Black Sheep last night the cd player came crashing down on the floor at one point. Again, it somehow walked away. So then, this morning I turn on the iPod and all of a sudden it works! So I’m back in business for tonight. Now, I know what you’re thinking: Johnny, does this story have a point? The answer, sadly, is no. I’ll be back this afternoon with a Taconelli’s review and a couple of results from this week. Oh, and I’ve got some exciting news about next week.
