    7/27/2009 -- crs!

    That's an acronym for "can't remember s***", which describes my Monday night quite well.  I forgot my camera, so I had to use my cell phone.  After the night ended, I forgot the scoresheet.  Most importantly, I forgot to ask about Mark Buehrle.  Anyway, it was a difficult quiz Monday, with no one scoring in the 90's.  Bad TV Moms was liked pretty well, Classic Movies it's OK to Hate wasn't.

    In third place, with 80 points (I think), was Connect Four (-1).

    Yeah, the camera phone just doesn't cut it.  This group was pleasantly surprised to finish in the top three, but they were solid, if unspectacular, throughout.

    In second place, after losing a tiebreaker, with 86 points -- our old friends, the Booze Brothers.

    Wait -- the Booze Brothers have a sister?  Who knew?  They admitted to being confounded, but they really enjoyed the degree of difficulty we had this evening.  These guys are so rarely confounded, that I will point to this night with pride.

    In first place, also with 86 points, the duo known as 2 1/2!

    It took me a while to get a picture that was barely acceptable of these two, who are now off their usual schedule of one week on, one week off.  BTW, the tiebreaker question this week was, "How many miles were ridden in the 2009 Tour de France?"  These two were closer to 2,149, so they won.  See how that works?

    Either Clare or Caylie will be hosting next week, since I have a very important function that I cannot miss.  I could probably make it to host, but you wouldn't be able to understand a word I say, so I best stay away.  Thanks to all who participated this week!
