Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Yay! Our trivia team won second place!

I got the tiebreaker question (but we weren't tied so it didn't matter):

What is the square root of 12,345,678,987,654,321?

I wracked my brain because I knew there was a trick to it. Then I figured it out: (whitefonted) 111,111,111.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

The status is NOT quo.

So I take it Mr. Scola got to Chicago safely? You all better be taking care of the Tom!

As far as I know, Mr. Scola arrived in Chicago safely. He was the one who dubbed our trivia team "Super Karate Monkey Death Car".

Our wings are not tired

Super Karate Monkey Death Car

HEE! That's a shout out to our bar trivia night from one of my NYC trips! Way too cool!

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

I dropped our dear Mr. Scola at his hotel at about 10:30, so I suspect he's settling in.

I just sent out an email to the Midwest list about plans for tomorrow. Basically, we're going to hang at my place and order pizza and watch DVDs.

If you need the details and didn't get the email, let me know!

Huzzah! Enjoy the Scola. We miss him already.

That is a great question!

The guy running the trivia thing was surprised that five groups got it right.

I wonder how common long multiplication is these days. They still teach it in schools, right? Although I suppose most kids pull out their calculators and promptly forget it.
