This Week Is Trivia Week, Part III

3 February 20123 February 2012 ~ completepatrick ~ 1 Comment

Written 16 September 2004. Wednesday 6:00PM Trumps Tavern, Sydney CBD The Trumps Tavern trivia night is an amalgam of low-brow questions, easy questions that are described as hard and hard questions that are just guesses. I'm not a huge fan of the host, G, because he once made a mistake that cost my team victory … Continue reading This Week Is Trivia Week, Part III

This festive celebration of marketing that once captivated a youthful gent has become an odorous smorgasbord of hackneyed messages, mostly revolving around expensive MP3 players, culminating in a day that serves only to remind us how irritating our families are. Bah humbug … Continue reading 2004 Christmas Message
