Action starts at O’Neals at 8 p.m. All new questions tonight. Winning team gets a $50 gift cert. If the winners can score over 120 points, they’ll get a $50 bonus.

Carl B Sure, meanwhile, will be hosting at Alla Spina tonight at 8 p.m. $2 off drafts and deep dish pizza. A great spot to quiz.

On to Tap House at 10:15, where we will again be under the stars. It was a beautiful night last Tuesday, and it should be just as nice tonight. There are $175 worth of prizes up for grabs, and it is anybody’s ballgame (I think a score of 76 won last week’s quiz).

We had a question about Goya last week, so I thought I’d post the picture above, one of his most famous works called El Tres de Mayo de 1808. It is considered a very modernist painting in that almost all artists previously had depicted war as something glorious, whereas this painting showed the horrors of it. When Napoleon appointed his brother King of Spain, many Spanish revolted on May 2nd, 1808. The next day, hundreds of those protestors were rounded up and shot by the French. You can read more about that story here. This painting is currently found in the Museu del Prado in Madrid.

Yes, we are scheduled to have a quiz tonight. With the fact that it’s Game 7 and it’s Memorial Day, I’m not expecting a record crowd, but we did actually have a few teams show last year, so who knows? I’m gonna take it easy today, so the questions will be from Thursday’s quiz (so if you played on Wednesday or Thursday last week, don’t show up tonight. I’ll have a new quiz tomorrow night). Action starts at 9:30.

It’s getting hot outside, but it’s getting even hotter on the dance floor at CLUB INDUSTRY! Tonight DJ Johnny Goodtimes will be spinning all of your favorite jams, including: the Speed Round and The Wild Card Round. And don’t act like you’re not going to get your grind on to the Impossible Round! Action starts at 6:30 p.m.

On to Bards at 9:15, and tonight DJ JGT is going to be slowing things down a bit. He’ll be playing all of your favorite slow jams, including: the Easy Round and The Music Round. Oh yeah. Get your freak on. Let’s go!

As for today’s video, a very funny look at immigration from the brilliant mind of Steve Gerben. This is a brief one…if you want to watch a really smart, funny, and more detailed look at immigration, check out Steve’s full presentation on it. Just fascinating stuff, and well worth your time.
