Meetup: Trivia Seattle Style
More trivia! With Mefites! Outdoors is an option if the weather is good or we just want the fresh air.
Warning: Since restarting, there have been no questions about Central European rivers.
After a rocky start, I am pleased to report the onion rings are better than ever.

So.
So, so, so, so...
The George & Dragon is open again, and apparently is having trivia on the date of this event.
Folks... There are 6 days 'til Tuesday, they serve a full plate of onion rings, some pretty damn good beer, it's trivia night and we're vaccinated.

Stretching the hometown hero Jimi theme: Let's do it again!
We failed to win this week but were still able to review cgc373’s recent book acquisitions. They were, as usual, edifying and inspirational.
But seriously: we did not win because you were not there. Do you want that on your permanent record for another week?
I thought not.

Meetup: Trivia Yet Again
Well, one of our Nemesis teams showed up in full force last week and defeated us 34-31. While it was refreshing to be challenged, it was not refreshing to lose. You could be the difference. As mentioned previously, if you haven’t attended before or haven’t in a while, we would love to have you with us. Some of us who attend frequently are not instrumental in achieving victory, so please don’t feel intimidated. As a bonus, more inside is a response to ChrisR’s challenge for team names playing off our usual “Manifest Destiny’s Child”. I have taken some liberties with his criteria. [more inside]
