    I think we should put together a SoWal.com team- God knows we have contributed thousands of bits of useless trivia over the last several years. We could maybe implement a "phone-a-friend" feature for out of town team members.

    Bdarg would be great at this- his other name is Cliff Claven.

    My mom and her friends recruited me for my "youthful knowledge." So I'll be there.

  11. Re: Trivia Night at Fonville Press!

    Fonville Press (the popular coffee shop, newsstand and wine bar in Alys Beach) is now hosting Trivia Night parties, including one this Friday night (November 30th). By all accounts, the first event had a big local turnout, and the competition among mildly vino-soaked minds was fierce. Each Trivia Night party fires up around 6pm, and is hosted by comedian Kevin Boyle of The Seaside Repertory Theater.

    I hear ya. I need to study all that movie stuff for next time.

    Horned lizards (Phrynosoma) are a genus of the Phrynosomatidae family of lizards. The horned lizard is popularly called a "horned toad," "horny toad", or "horned frog," but it is neither a toad nor a frog.

    I think it was Team Totally Awesome -- the ones sitting in the back corner -- but only by a hair in sudden death!

    So much fun! Kevin is fantastic (well, except for the toad/frog point thievery).

    Kevin did a good job but we obviously need to send more beer his way next match.

    This was a blast last night. I spent most of the night cooking, but I was trying my best to telepathically send Skunky some answers during sudden death.

    It's trivia, right? Being close counts only in Horseshoes and hand grenades.
    Skunky, word on the street is that you don't know your football mascots. Should you really be leading the NCAA Football thread?

    To give each of you trivia buffs your respects, I wasn't there, because I stink at trivia and I would have not benefited any team, except for giving you encouragement.

    You know that wouldn't work. Kevin would ask a question, then we would create some tangents, distracting our focus from the answer to KEVIN's question.

    This Friday will be the last nite of Trivia for 2007. Come out and vie for the win that carries bragging rights through next year.

    Go ahead and mark your calendars - Trivia Night will be held the 2nd Friday of each month, starting March 14, 2008!

    No, can't do that! There will be a boatload of people in town the week between Christmas and New Year's. Besides, daughter and BF want to play! They pretty much rule the trivia contests in the Atlanta bar scene.
