Trivial Pursuit

At one point this evening - the point just before the very last question of the night - we were tied for first place.  First place!  That's never happened before.  Then we were issued a ridiculous question that we somehow managed to answer correctly - however we only wagered 5 points.  Ugh!

~  Apparently in terms of population (greatest to smallest), Australia has the least amount of people. Colombia has slightly more and then a 3rd country has the most (a third country that I'm having a very hard time recalling right now.)  If we would have just wagered it all like we usually do - and usually get the answer wrong - then we would have ended in very first place!  Ugh!

~ Tumblr. is considered a blogging platform.  Who knew?

~ I should be kicked out of the Catholics seeing as I went to Catholic school for 13 years and managed to miss a question about the College of Cardinals.

~ It's been much too long since I've seen the movie Mrs. Doubtfire.  And while on the subject of Robin Williams movies, Aladdin, Hook and Dead Poet's Society were the overwhelming favorites at our table.

~ A punter in the NFL most often has a longer career than any other position in the league.  I'd argue it's the guy whose job it is to hold the ball for the punter but I suppose not.

~ You can order ice cream from GrubHub and the number one flavor they deliver is vanilla.  What is wrong with people?  Don't they know chocolate is infinitely better than vanilla?

~ My 26 years of not watching the Simpsons seems to keep coming up to bite us in the butt.

~ I managed to ace the Greek Alphabet questions without knowing a single letter in the Greek alphabet. 

~ And much to my chagrin, not a single question in the set of questions pertaining to 1997 was about me.  I graduated from grades chool in 1997 - I feel that would be a fantastic piece of information that everyone should know... : )
