Thanks to everyone who joined us at Pete's Candy Store last night for their weekly trivia contest -- and to celebrate the birthday of yours truly. Thanks Emily, Chris, David, Liz, Andrea, Jay, Jim, Matt, Lisa, Billy, and of course my darling Debbie, who organized the whole thing as a surprise. Our combined knowledge of hot peppers, 10cc, Texas wildflowers, pirate movies, McCarthyism, lacrosse, history and geography vaulted "Mike's Mauraders" into third place, winning the coveted Pete's Candy Store sandwich. (For the record, if we had only listened to Liz telling us that Turkey bordered an awful lot of countries, we would have tied for second.) Afterward, a subset of us decamped to Plant Thailand for yummy food.
I had a great time. Isn't Debbie the best? She's the best.
Oh, and happy birthday to Liz md H!
For the record, when I left we were in SECOND place.
I'm not saying I carried the team, I'm just saying that when I left, we were in SECOND place.
Also, NICE sandwiches. Though I was drunk, and that does a certain special something to boost the quality of a nice sammich.
