Trivia Tuesday

~ The results of the election are just as terrifying even when surrounded by liquor and sitting in bar.  Also, election returns are probably not the best thing to watch during trivia - I think everyone paid more attention to the results than the game.

~ You know it's going to be a good night when the very first question is about your very favorite neighborhood in San Francisco - Haight Ashbury.  Also, you know your trivia dude is a good one when he chooses to play a song by the Grateful Dead during this question.

~ The Cleveland Browns is the only team in the NFL that is winless this season so far.  And I know this because the Browns are playing the Ravens this week - which means after Thursday, they probably won't be winless anymore.

~ "I don't want to miss a thing" is Aerosmith's only number one song which is just sad.  They have so many other fabulous songs.  Also, why does their only number one song have to accompany such a sad movie like Armageddon?  I love that song, but that movie is super depressing.

~ The world's oldest penguin lived to be 36 years old.  I'm so glad I'm not a penguin...

~ Tonight we were asked how long it took someone to drink a 16 oz bottle of ketchup with a straw.  I have so many questions about this?  Most of all, why on god's green earth would someone choose to do this willingly?  I get sick to my stomach just thinking about it. Yuck!  Apparently this masochist took 36.2 seconds to do it.  That's 36.2 seconds of his life he'll never get back.

~ Thank goodness for MASH for teaching me Army rank.  It's the only reason I remember that Majors are higher in rank than Captains.  

~ Also, thank goodness for Twitter for suggesting I follow Neil Gaiman.  I only know for sure that he wrote Neverwhere and Stardust.  However, he talks a lot about Sandman on his Twitter which is fabulous since that was an answer this evening.  Yay for the nerds!

~ The tiger's name in Life of Pi is not Cake.  I feel that was a real missed opportunity.
