So everything I’ve posted for the past week disappeared yesterday. Have I told you all lately how much fun I’m having with the group that hosts my website? Anyways, it’s a lot of fun. So let’s just pretend like last week never happened. Oh, and the RPS tourney was EPIC. I’ll have lots of photos and a write up soon. Then it will probably disappear magically.
Oh, and one last quote, just for fun
“It’s vile. It’s more sad than anything else, to see someone with such potential throw it all down the drain because of a sexual addiction.”
-about Bill Clinton in 1998.
Tonight’s the Night, Eagles Fans
Yep, we’re gonna be showing the Packers-Eagles game tonight on the large movie screen at the Trocado. Gonna be $2 PBRs, Dollar dogs, concert quality sound, and lots of stuff to give away. Also, I’m gonna be hosting some football quizzo beforehand, kicking off at 7:30 p.m. We’ll be filling out score squares (first come, first serve, with a chance to win kool stuff) and doing some Wheel of Terrific at halftime. Hope to see you there!
So Here’s the deal
I’m gonna post the winners followed by a famous quote. You are going to write in the comments section who said it. No googling the quote! It’s not like you win anything (other than glory), so cheating to find the answer would be really lame. One guess per person.
Team of Trekkies and Alf fans win at Penn Gig
The only team that answered both the Star Trek and ALf questions correctly won at the private gig at Houston Hall on Penn campus on Wednesday. Here is the quote:
“I went to a restaurant that serves “breakfast at any time”. So I ordered French Toast during the Renaissance.”
Yeah, so…
…I’m heading to Jersey to be in a music video. Don’t ask. I really don’t know how this happened. But I’ll be back Sunday to post results of this week. Remember, Monday night: Football quizzo at 7:30 p.m., followed by Monday Night Football, Eagles vs. Packers on the movie screen with concert sound AND the Wheel of Terrific at halftime. Boo-yaka-shot.
JGT Has a New Theme Song
Damn, yo, Weird Al’s still got it.
Season over
Yep, the Phils lost two of three to one of the worst teams in baseball. They’ll win tonight, and the Dodgers will lose tonight, just to reel us back in one last time, but the Dodgers will not lose two of three. We’re finished. Pathetic. We should have lost Wednesday night too. What a choke. I wish the silver lining was that this would mean that the Phils would fire Uncle Charlie and make a push for Joe Girardi, but we all know that that will never happen. The highlight of the game was this, from Rich Hoffmann’s article in today’s paper: Later, they booed the pathetic excuse for Thomas Jefferson who fell down twice in a race of big-headed presidential mascots – after, that is, they greeted the big-heads with a serenade to the Phillies’ expert on all races of mascots: “Ran-dall Simon … Ran-dall Simon … “ To make matters worse, the pitcher who got the win for LA in yesterday’s Dodgers-Rockies game? Mark Hendrickson, a former Sixer! God has a sick sense of humor.
Oh, and a clarification. The Eagles game we’re showing on Monday will be the live Eagles-Packers game, not a replay of the 1960 game. Somebody asked me that last night.
Watch Eagles-Packers game on largest screen in the City!
Monday night, the Eagles will be playing the team they defeated to win their last NFL title, the Green Bay Packers. And the Troc is gonna be showing it on their enormous movie screen. More importantly, you’ll get a chance to hang out and watch the game with yours truly, and get to see just how emotionally unhinged I become during sporting events. It’s going to be concert sound, on the big screen, and there will be $2 PBRs, dollar dogs, and $10 buckets of Corona ponies for you snobs who can’t be happy with PBR. There will be a hot dog eating contest at halftime, lots of football trivia, and yes, the most HATED game show in the tri-state area will be rearing its ugly head, as Chip and I will be hosting the Wheel of Terrific on the main stage. You have to see it if you haven’t seen it yet.
Hurting
The plan: Finish up my private gig last night, go watch the end of the Phillies game and grab a quick beer, then still be home early. I haven’t paid my bills in months, and I’ve got a lot of work to get done on Thursday, so it’s important that I get a good night’s sleep!
The reality: Phils game goes an excrutiating 14 innings, lasting well past midnight. I have a few beers. Then things get ugly. The freaking rocket scientists I’m hanging out with decide that we should celebrate the Phils win by drinking mind erasers. Not one, but two. I never do shots. Why? So I never feel the way I do RIGHT F****** NOW! To make matters worse, I had a construction crew at my house at 9 a.m., so I’ve been lying in bed, listening to drills and hammers for the past 2+ hours. I am in a world of pain.
