So pub quiz last night…we’re slowly improving…no thanks to Saffa I’m sure, but we got 4th out of 12 this time…Just barely missed placing (and a free baby guinness for the table) and it’s probably cuz Saffa was rude to the quizmistress…He had to correct her (adamantly) about one of the movies (about a boy I think)…
anyways if we had taken my advice and used the Joker on General knowledge we might have moved up a spot…
I did peak in the General knowledge section…here was my high point…
Q. Which US chain is named after a character in Moby Dick
A….Starbucks (this one was all me….I got cocky after this, which probably lost us a point in the movie round when I was adamant that “Gone with the Wind” was a black and white movie…It was in fact in colour and also won best picture oscar in 1939…everyone at the table wanted Gone with the Wind, but since “the yank” was flying high after the Starbucks question I misled the team…oops…stop listening to me people… 😉
I’ve been in 4 countries (besides DE) in the last 4 weeks…Wow…fairly impressive considering I had never been outside of the states as of about 2 years ago.
I’ve put up the other pics on the Bratislava page…please note that not only is Bobby McFerrin visiting that country, but also Naughty by Nature (hip hop hurray…down with OPP?) and also there are Kim Wilde posters in the background….I also saw that Chuck Berry is doing a show in Slovakia…Rock n Roll is apparently more powerful than democracy…the West has won with their sex drugs and rock n roll.
