Quiz Schedule
Thursdays 8PM @ Bumsted's at 500 N. 4th Ave.,Tucson, AZ, (NE corner of 6th St. & 4th Ave.) 		Julio (Jean-Luc)

If there is one thing you must know about Jean-Luc (or "Julio" for those of you feeling saucy) it is that he loves scotch sours. Doesn't matter what kind of scotch goes into the sour, be it well scotch, Glenlivet, or Laphroaig. Because when he drinks it neat, he only drinks Talisker 18 year. Why is he telling you this? So you can buy him a scotch sour. He has no shame. But know this. Your buying him a scotch won't get you any free points for the night. But it will help him remember your name the following morning.

Originally a native from Los Angeles (Go Dodgers!), Jean-Luc has been living in Tucson close to four years. Love, not a desire to drive down property values, brought him here. And when he's not complaining about the heat, he's complaining about the cold. But he doesn't complain often, except when Ned Colletti makes a horrible trade or a questionable signing. Yes, he enjoys baseball. But he loathes the San Francisco Giants. More than he does gin and tonics.

This is the part of the bio where he lists favorites - favorite films, favorite musical artists, favorite books. After you gloss over the list, somehow you are supposed to know more about him than you did before. Though he doubts that. If you really want to get to know your quizmaster, just approach him. Talk to him. He's the one behind the microphone, mispronouncing words and making awful jokes that fall flat. He doesn't bite. Unless you want him to.

As promised, his favorites (which constantly change)!

Between the young age where you begin watching movies to the time you realize Santa isn't real and begin questioning everything you thought about life - from astral projections and the quantum mechanics of time travel to the likelihood that a bunch of mutant ninjas would really be seen with a white rapper in a shady warehouse - Hollywood magic is real. It exists and manifests itself in your young mind. Everything you see on that screen is a possibility, be it comical, fantastic, or downright horrifying. But of course, the jadedness and cynicism that follows tears down those Hollywood lies. You accept that those images are not real. You become a film snob.

Which is why I have to call "bullshit" on the Hollywood trope of father's talking to their sons about masturbation. Mine certainly did not. And I know of no friends whose fathers gave 'em that talk. If they did, my friends aren't telling. Which means it must have been an emotionally scarring conversation, complete with hand gestures and dads referencing their spank bank holdings. Fathers, just let your sons figure it out on their own. Unless they stick their dicks into the swimming pool suction fitting. Then your kid is stupid, and there is nothing you can do about that. Tough shit, I guess.

As I mentioned last night, I created a new Facebook page for our Geeks Who Drink quiz at Bumsted's. Make sure you "Like" it: www.facebook.com/GeeksWhoDrinkAtBumsteds

And here's the Bumsted's page, do the same: www.facebook.com/pages/Bumsteds/110113160836

Remember, the Geeks Who Drink site is your first stop for the quiz recap. On the GWD at Bumsted's page, I'll be uploading higher res photos (so tag yourselves) along with opportunities for more free drinks and more quiz related wackiness. Now spread the link among your friends like a batch of pinworms!
