Any lady looking for an advanced career in the burgeoning quizzo market is advised to apply for the Kinky Quizmaster post at Valanni. I have to admit, I’ve never played Kinky Quizzo (at the risk of sounding supercilious*, I try to keep terms like Cleveland Steamer and Roman Helmet out of my conversations these days), but I suppose it could be interesting. 

“Got a big mouth, a dirty mind?” asks Karwoski. “Are you quick witted, well-read? Always dreamed of talking Dirty Sanchezes and getting paid? Think you can handle the mic? I’ll be the judge of that. Bring it!  Compete to be the next Kinky Quizzo host at Valanni.”

Anybody ever been to one of these things? Let me know how it was. 

*I suppose using words like supercilious makes me sound supercilious.

 
Well kids, it’s off to Hotlanta for a wedding. The Sandman will be filling in for me tonight. Ugly American at 7:30 p.m., Bards at 10 p.m. Been an interesting week of quizzo, to say the least, with 3 upsets in 4 quizzes. That blues round really seemed to even the playing field. In the soundtrack of my life, the Muddy Waters song above would be playing when I walked down the street. It would all be in slow motion and beautiful women would be making eyes at me as I walked past and dudes would know not to f*** with me. I’d have a toothpick in my mouth. What song you got playing as your “Walk down the street song” in the soundtrack of your life.

A pleasant surprise at last night’s quizzo at the Bard’s as the originator of American quizzo, Pat Hines, made a rare appearance. For those who don’t know, Pat moved to Northern Ireland last year with his wife and two kids. He was back in town for 10 days and decided to check out one of my normal quizzes for the first time ever (he did attend the Summer Slam in 2004.) We had a beer after quizzo, and Pat says that he’s enjoying Northern Ireland, though he does miss Philly. He just finished getting his teaching certificate over there, and is hoping to begin teaching soon. He talked about the very first quizzos in the US, held at a bar in Wildwood called O’Shea’s, with nothing but Irish questions and Irish people playing. Pat, who is not from Ireland, needed an assistant to help him come up with relevant questions about rugby, the Dail Eireann, and so forth. And in case you’re wondering, yes, those are still his questions being asked at New Deck and Fergie’s. Oh, and his team came in an impressive 3rd.
