Jeanette Cerami is a professor of Silly Bitchery.  She is part of the improv groups KillScreen and F'actors. She's also in a sketch show with Shack Over There Productions at the Voodoo Comedy Playhouse. She teaches small children how to be silly as well as directs for Rocky Mountain Theatre for Kids.  When she's not teaching others to be silly or being silly on the spot, she likes to cuddle with willing participants, as well as dress in fun costumes even if the occasion doesn't call for such (see profile picture). She also has a dual Bachelor's in Theatre and International Studies from the University of Denver, but her reading capabilities might make you guess otherwise.  Let's just be honest here, her degree in Silly Bitchery has been put to way better use. Let's call a spade a spade.

Last night was quite the treat all on fronts.  QM, quiz pro, and dear friend of mine Mike Rucki came to celebrate his birthday with me at the Elm.  I started him off right with a card full of glitter so he looked like an off-the-clock stripper all night, especially with his awesome hat.  I pointed out to him that he didn't smell like one, not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.   BUT! He did have a celebratory HAT (see left), AND I told everyone in the bar to donate just a single dime to the "Get Mike Drunk for His Birthday" fund because we had 18 MOTHA FUCKIN TEAMS!!  Clearly I have great skills in the art of persuasion because Mike wound up with <drumm roll>......

One.                                       One Dime.                        

Passed to him from the booth next door. The dime wasn't from the booth next door, but the dime had been attached to a napkin with an alligator clip that read "Pass it down to the guy with the birthday".  So, thank you, One.  One Person.  For the dime, and the alligator clip, on behalf of Señor Miguel and his birthday fiesta..

We had a night of firsts/records.  First time I've hosted at The Elm with 18 teams, that was really exciting.  First time I got to tell a team Ram Rod that they had to change their horribly stupid, unclever, overused name.  When they asked why, I explained to them the blacklist of stupid names, and gave the example of "My couch pulls out but I don't", to which they replied, "Yea, we used that name at trivia in Peru".  Hmmm, well it seems that technology and hygiene aren't the only places they fall behind the US in. ZING!
Fun quiz last night!  Round one was Classic Horror Haikus-- not a lot of perfect scores, but one from the winning team ¡Señor Miguel's Birthday Fiesta! at least. They also had a perfect score on Round 3- Was it Longer or Shorter Than Kim Kardashian's Marriage, in which all the answers were longer.  Both rounds seemingly easy, in my opinion, but tripped up quite a few teams.  The reception of Round 2: Jesus Told Me To Make Lame Parodies was glorious last night!  So, too, was the ability of the Apologetix to sound like the people they are somewhat impersonating, a lot of times I can't tell the difference.  I'm convinced, because of this, that we are being fed Christian propaganda in the facade of pop music and we don't even realize it!!!! This may also be because I just watched Kevin Smith's movie Red State last night.  But I digress...  One more round of notable mention was Round 7- Love Themes. The outcome on this round was hit or miss--mostly miss.  My favorite part of it, however, is a tie:  The fact that Con Air was in the round was glorious to me, becasue it is NOT a love themed movie in the slightest AND it involved lots of inmates; and when I was reading the answers and only took the correct sequel of Star Wars II, a team that didn't get it shouted out to a team that did "YOU NERDS!!", as if it was an insult in any way, shape or form in this forum.  Too good.


The Sexecutioners were deceptive in their game play; they were not very far from the bottom of the list all night and then BLAM!  Jokered a score of 8 in the final round and as most people struggled with it, they bumped up to the money spot!  Never Nudes held their own in 2nd place all night, weren't as excited about that as they should have been but maybe it's their team's time of the month.   ¡Señor Miguel's Birthday Fiesta! also held their own at the TIPPY TOP of the scoreboards throughout the whole quiz.  Not a bad birthday gift to give yourself: being smarter than 17 other teams and drinking a few free bonus beers as you revel in it.   

Last night was in the Top 5 of my experiences hosting a Geeks Who Drink and I hope it landed somewhere around there for the people playing as well.  Thanks for coming out, can't wait to see what next week brings!   (crosses fingers) not syphilis again, not syphilis again...

This week's blog will be represented in a poem.  Great times last night, thanks for playing... And now, for my poetic genius:

 

Twas a Tuesday, that's for sure

The quiz was hot, the beer was pure

Twas a Tuesday, that's for sure

The Peeps were ill, I had the cure,

 Twas a Tuesday, that's for sure

 

The End is the Beginning

At least in Round 1 this is true

In order to be winning

You need to know more than 2 + 2

 

Round 2 brought us back to the days of Ska

Or according to some, a variation of

Everyone knew "Come on Eileen", Huzzah!

The rest of the round, they didn't much love

 

Skip to the visual, a mash up for brands

Not the easiest Round 5 that I've seen

Most people knew starbucks, lend them your hands!

But Paul Reubens mugshot? Well that's just mean

 

Imaginationland is a glorious place!

Full of Fight Club and dragons and Mal

Sometimes I wonder what goes on behind YOUR face

But then again, you're like talking to a wall

 

Morally Bankrupt killed it, no victory tour

Twas a Tuesday, that's for sure

The team names were fun, none too obscure

Twas a Tuesday, that's for sure

After I ate my weight in southwest potato skins I rallied up the troops for some Quizzin Boob showin fun times*!  We had a fun time, and then I went home at ate ice cream, but before that!

Pros and Cons...The Pros and Cons of me joining the Twatter revolution (I did my first "twat" for the company my business owns):
Pros                                                                                                  Cons
I learned something new                                             I am now a part of the twatter revolution
I can see what other people are doing all the time          I can see what other people are doing all the time
Networking                                                                 Time wasting
Instant Gratification                                                     Information overload
Now, back the the quiz.  It was fun!  The first round treated most people pretty good.  Round 2: Sorry Wrong Number kinda kicked most team's asses.  Z-Unit seemed the least shaken with a high score of 11 (next highest was 8).  Round 3: Looks Like You're Going to Community College wasn't too bad for people-  seems that even if you don't get into a good college you know a lot about them!  There was a round on scary clowns, that creeped me out.  Also, not surprisingly, Morgan Freenman has a very low voice and only when he's screaming does he not sound like he's narrating a Discovery Channel show (even when talking about revenge on a Rabbi).  
Other than that, ya know, we had fun n stuff.  Ok Just One More impressed me with getting the 3rd place spot with only 1/3 of their regular team there!  Also, they're the only team that new Mr. Telephone Man by New Edition, so they got brownie points from me.  Kolfax Killaz win the award for Most Spirited at the Elm quiz, screaming their ovaries off at almost every question and round.  I like that about them, keep it comin ladies (and I think one gentleman)!  
See ya next week!
