~ It's important to read the entire question and not just get excited because you have the right answer - to a question that wasn't asked. There went 40 points...
~ Apparently, I wore my "extra large judge-y" pants today which required an hour standoff bet of only positivity. Luckily it was a draw or I would have had to buy a beer for a team-mate.
~ Hoping a question on Foreign Food is about Fugu, is enough for karma to tip the scales in your favor. Thank goodness for Anthony Bourdain!
~ I'm very good at guessing the length of the minute hand on Big Ben and the life span of people born in 1900 - though no one listens to me when I do guess.
~ A team that knows nothing about baseball - i.e. us - managed to answer 2 of 3 questions in the category correctly by guessing our pants off. Woohoo us!
~ Finally getting a question on literature is not nearly as exciting when it's a simple question that everyone knows about the Scarlet Letter.
~ WordPress is the most viewed blogger platform - I know this. I'd just like to reiterate that point since no one on my team believed me. (Rant over... : )
~ While hoping and receiving a foreign food question worked in round one, it did not work in round 2. I suppose it was too much to ask that the baseball last words question would be about Lou Gehrig's speech.
~ Sciophobia is not the fear of being surprised even though logically (the root "sci" means to know) that made the most sense. It is in fact the fear of shadows.
