Flighty and Free, or at Least Trying to Be!

A Few Things Learned...

...from quiz night:

- There are three knights of the Round Table whose names start with 'G.': Sir Galahad, Sir Gawain, and Sir Girflet (apparently the last is highly underrated and almost never heard of)

- Every time Mauni asks if anyone wants a cupcake, the Birthday Girl will always say, 'Sure, why not?'

- 'Pussy Galore' is a character name in the James Bond movie Goldfinger, not from Octopussy (very racy for its time).

- Knitting is a good past-time during quiz night (crazy bitches)

- To date, the #1 selling album is 'The Eagles' Greatest Hits.' (am I the only person thinking WTF? Why not the White Album, or countless other timeless works of musical art?)

- A team made up of 1 guy and 5 girls will cover all the trivia from sports to movies, to '80s music to knowing the difference between a 44 magnum and a 45 magnum

- Try as you might to leave so you can catch your 10:30pm train, but the Quiz Master always has other plans in mind (count on making the 12:30am train).

- No other questions are taken more seriously than the 'free beer' question rounds! (You should see those fatties run to present the correct answer!! Beer-guts a-boundin'!)

- And lastly, but not least of all, if you show any excitement or indication that you had a good time, count on being suckered in to come back next week because quiz night is luckily EVERY Thursday night at a classic Irish Pub.

Thanks for a great time last night, ladies (and gent). It really was a good time and I do look forward to a repeat performance...next time we should be able to close the gap in points! I have faith in Mauni's British Television trivia knowledge!
