Alright, I’m back in business. It was a great week at the beach, but now I’m back and ready to ask some damn trivia questions. So let’s get the thang started tonight at Sidecar at 9:30 sharp. Hope to see you there!

There’s a new facebook physical challenge up on the JGT Quizzo facebook page. An easy way for your team to earn points in the JGTSI.

I am on vacation, but the quiz must go on. So here are the quizzes and the special guests hosts you can expect this week.

Here they are, our JGTSI Scores after 4 weeks. We have a lot of teams on the scoreboard. Teams in yellow would earn an invite to the invitational if the season ended today. Teams in blue would be on the bubble, and teams in green have some work to do. The good news is that, even if your team has zero points, there is still plenty of time to earn points.

The easiest way to do so is by scoring points on facebook. Last week’s challenge is still live. A new one will be posted on Monday.

Alright, final night of Week 3 of the JGTSI. Two great chances to get a win, and an interesting quiz that resulted in a huge upset at the Vous last night. We start at Industry at 6:30 p.m. Drink specials, great food, great service. You know the deal. On to the Bards at 9:15. A little slower these days now that the kids are gone, but we’ve still been rocking and rolling. Let’s do it again tonight!

We start at Lo Spiedo at 5:30 p.m., where guest host Slick Joe Moore will be filling in for Carl B Sure. I would go there to host myself but I know you savages at the Rendezvous would eat Slick Joe alive. You’re animals! But I still love ya, so come out to quizzo tonight at the Vous. I’ll be there.

Just gonna do one quiz after all. None of the teams who play twice a week showed early in the week so I’m gonna just do one quiz and spend the afternoon posting last weeks scores (I had jury duty Monday so I’m running a bit behind this week.)

On to Founding Fathers at 8:30 p.m. You know how we do. Hope to see ya tonight!

The pic above is of Galileo. On this date in 1633, he was forced by the Holy Office in Rome to take back his theory that the Sun was the center of the universe. He had pissed off the Pope, and so he had been called to Rome to defend himself. He was forced to recant the belief in heliocentrism. But like a 7th grader being reprimanded for something that he knew was bullshit, he muttered under his breath what he really thought. After he was forced to recant his heliocentric belief, Galileo quietly but audibly uttered, “And yet it moves.” (Though not in English of course.) He was put on house arrest, which he remained under for the rest of his life.

The painting is done by Justus Sustermans. He was the Medici court painter and considered the finest painter in Italy.

Alright, tonight we’ve got special guest host Jim Grammond hosting at O’Neals. Action starts at 8 p.m. Great place to get a win.

I will be hosting at Alla Spina. Such a great venue. Really looking forward to it. Action also starts at 8 p.m.

And we wrap it up under the stars at Tap House. We keep getting great nights for the quiz. Really fun doing it outdoors, and $175 worth of prizes to give away. See ya tonight!

As for the pic above, it’s Banjo Lesson by Henry Ossawa Tanner, who was born on June 21st, 1859 in Pittsburgh, and who studied at the Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
