Quizzo News and Notes

A couple of quick notes about quizzo before I post the top scores:

  • It was great to see the Axis of Evil Knieval, the Satan’s Minion, and Chill Rob A from MAGMA out this week. Hope to get you guys back in the mix on the reg, and still would love to see Haggis, the Goats, and the S*** Hawks back out again soon, among others.
  • Still working on a venue for city vs. city challenge and Quizzo Bowl IV. If anybody has an idea for a venue for City vs. City, let me know. In talks with World Cafe Live for QB IV, and am hoping we can make it happen. As I said before, I’ve got a musical act lined up that is going to BLOW YOUR FREAKING DOORS.
  • Quizzo is cancelled next Thursday, obviously, but we are on for Tuesday and Wednesday. Tuesday will be another bounty bowl for the Kingdom. Raising the stakes to $25 (in addition to $40 gift certificate) to any team that beats the SK.
  • Sofa Kingdom missed a perfect round by one point last night. The only thing they missed: “Who is returning to Trading Spaces?” They put Paige Wilson, and it’s Paige Davis. Oh, and happy birthday to Nate of the Kingdom.

The Best Story of the Week

Not even cIose. Whenever some knucklehead talks about “deadly marijuana”, it is worth watching, and when he refers to himself as a “hip guy”, you know you’ve found something special. Don’t know if you guys saw this when I posted it a couple of days ago, but it’s important that you see it, because it is about the most astounding amount of mindless misinformation you will ever see in your lives. Also, I’d like to remind any parents out there: if your daughter is wearing a jelly bracelet, she’s a whore.

Your Best Comments this week

Here’s some of the best comments you guys have posted in the past week:

  • Ron Paul chats with Ace Capone on Facebook all of the time. -Chip Chantry
  • On a column about Ron Paul: I know you were limited to 5 items, Chip, but wasn’t he also the original voice for Cogswell from the Jetsons? -Steve O.
  • A surprise visit from a tv legend: I see about 6 Ten Commandment violations in this comment chain. Repent or face an angry and judgmental God. -Kirk Cameron
  • I’d rather have my testicles superglued to a cannonball and fired into a Hugs for Puppies vegan potluck than hear anything else about Jeff Garcia. -BMT
  • In response to my Ol, Dirty, or Bastard Round: Next year the answers should all include Big, Baby or Jesus. -Anonymous

Bush does something that doesn’t make him look like a complete moron!

In a startling development today, president George Bush announced something that didn’t sound entirely idiotic. Opening up an express lane for planes over Thanksgiving in unused military airspace will help ease traffic congestion. It really doesn’t sound like a terrible idea. So I just wanted to pay credit where credit is due. After 6 years of non-stop abject failure, today George Bush did something that wasn’t incomprehensibly stupid. Bravo!
