After the Olsen Twins missed trivia last week for the first time in a whole year, we were back in style with a first place finish last night. (Our team name, courtesy of yours truly: “The Olsen Twins: Better Late Than Pregnant.”) We had only a 5-person team, but our superior knowledge of animals, books (comic and otherwise), and the Dixie Chicks led us to victory. All this, in the face of a blatant attempt on our lives.
The photo to the right is of a warning label on a space heater that was right in front of Kelly (the trivia M.C.). In case you can’t make it out, the middle line says, “Using it in an enclosed space can kill you.” Alyssa claims she passed out due to giving blood earlier in the day, but I know the heater was at least partly to blame. I wonder if she could sue and make millions.
Other noteworthy points from last night include 1) this festive tree that was on the bar; and 2) this gentleman, whom I was fortunate enough not to see in person. I mean, Jesus. One of the most important reasons for wearing pants is to keep one’s ass out of sight and mind. I’ve never in my life seen a pair of pants fail so fast.
(P.S. The goddamn captcha has been temporarily disabled. I’ve gotta get to the bottom of that.)

Oh dear god, that was SO embarrassing. As one of my friends put it “You ended up on the floor at a bar and there was no liquor involved? Only you.”
Yep, that’s me.
