My day job is actually a night job, where I spin all the hits all the time.  Be careful... I might just soft rock your socks off. 

I met both President Clinton and prop comic Gallagher the day of the Million Man March.

I love The Venture Brothers, The Late Late Show with Craig Ferguson, and anything with Boston Rob Mariano.

I've been QM'ing since October 2010 and have loved every minute of it.  I'm actually sitting here counting the minutes until I can work on next week's quiz.  One... two... three... fourteen... seventy... eleven hundred... one jillion...

... I'm also crap at math.

Well hello to you, all my happy Monday quizzers!

So glad you could join us at North by Northwest (one of the BEST brewpubs in America, according to chow.com) for a very special Quiz for a Cause this evening.  Tonight we were out to have a great time and squeeze together a couple of nickels and dimes for our friends from Armadillo Con!  For those not in the know, Armadillo Con is one of the longest-running science fiction conventions in the state of Texas… and they’re wicked philanthropic as well!  If you are a fan of literary sci-fi, then I know we’ll see you at Armadillo Con 34 this July!

Sarah and the fine folks from AC34 (as I will now abbreviate… because now it totally sounds like AC360… so I like Anderson Cooper… sue me!) brought us some great prizes to give away including travel mugs, sweet art prints and even a two night stay at the Renaissance Hotel!  So awesome! 

Of course, the whole time I was hosting I was only thinking two things:

1)      For the love of all that’s holy, please let my voice hold out… and

2)      BI-MON-SCI-FI-CON!!!  BE THERE AND BE SQUARE!!!

Let’s hope the literati enjoy a good Simpsons reference.  I sure do.

Super big ups go to Callie, Chelsea II and their suddenly powerful quiz juggernauts, the Aramadildos (hey, I thought it was funny!) who went home with a fat stack of bills for their efforts tonight, finishing a cool three points in front of our second place logjam.  Perfect scores in rounds 1, 3 and 4 made all the difference for you tonight.  Way to go!

Taking not only second place, but also our huge hotel getaway door prize were Dan, Michael and NOT MARY from Mary’s Cheating on Ron with The Bachelorette.  Hope it was worth it, Mary.  Now you don’t get to enjoy the sweet hotel-y goodness.  Did the Bachelorette ever give you a free hotel room?  Doubt it.

And after ties were settled, our old friends from 42 took home third place and a $15 gift card.  Not a bad night’s work… and always so great to have you guys out and about!

Thanks to all of you for coming out to enjoy the quiz!  It’s a regular free-ass quiz next Monday, so I’ll see you guys out on the pavilion at 7:30!

So wet…

So cold…

Do you hear a sloshing sound near you right now?  That would be me.  Not only have I found out where you live (live to stalk, stalk to live), but I’m wringing all of the rainwater out of my shirt and knee socks.  You should know that American Apparel makes an incredibly absorbent knee sock.  I didn’t know that before tonight.

I dare say that ours was probably the only outdoor quiz in the nation that would have continued during a tsunami, and soldier on we did.  As sheets of rain battered man, woman and child, your intrepid quizmaster continued asking questions that might eventually lead to his demise.  It was only a matter of time before a random lightning strike nailed my mixer and cooked me to a crispy golden brown.  But thankfully tonight was not that night.  And what a quiz it was!

Sure, we were all trapped under the makeshift FEMA shelter we called a tent because of the rain, but that didn’t dampen our spirits.  No pun intended.

The scoring was fast and furious, as we had four teams crack the high seventies on the night.  Our champions, The United States of Finn, took the $25 prize with a score of 80, while we had THREE teams tied for second with an amazing 77 points.  When I offered you a choice of categories for a tiebreaker question, two teams begged for sports, while the last team wanted snack foods.  How ironic that the one team that didn’t want the sports question was the one to nail it and take home the second place prize!  Way to go, you dirty Cuntsicles

Let’s hope the weather decides to play nice next week and we don’t have to quiz in canoes!  See you all next week!

Yeah, that doesn’t make things awkward!  And I’m just positive that the parents of those kids loooove that you guys want to warp their kids’ minds with naughty team names!  But censorship be damned!  I will honor your request to call you the most depraved, debasing name you can possibly imagine, so next time you bring the thunder!

One this night, you had to endure me scatting along with the theme to the $25,000 Pyramid while you racked your brains for game show names.  Somehow I felt that doing this may have handicapped your scores for the round.  More than one answer sheet read, “Dear God, make him STOP!”  That’s a big negatory, good buddy.  At my quiz, I’ll hum the theme song to whatever program I want, then follow it up with my baritone rendition of Fiona Apple’s Criminal.  Why do I do this?  Two reasons… first, I want to give you guys the most unique quiz experience possible, and second, I totally forgot to take my meds today.

Another week means another win for the assembled quiz Avengers of Cat, Abby, Justin, Rachel, Nausheen and Sherry… tonight as Hairy Shaft Meat Curtain!  You carried a huge lead with you all night, and hung on for a six point victory.  Last week’s second place solo artist hooked up to form the super team Are You Free Tonight or Will It Cost Me?  You guys came very close to taking the title tonight, but fell just short of the victory.  I know you’ll kill it next week!

Thanks for always making these Mondays so fun for me!  I hope you enjoy them as well.  We’ll see you next week!
