Jam on it


Nerds unite!

That is just fun to say.

Last night, we had quizzardry and random knowledge mayhem. Phil's brother and sis-in-law are in town causing a ruckus, so we took them to The Whiskey Bar to tickle their brains.

Despite the quiz lady's overuse of cursing (don't pander to the crowd), we had a ball o' fun. Here is the write up about it at the Geeks Who Drink website.

Yes, that is Amos.

No, he was not drunk.

My boy doesn't drink, so I guess we should stop posing him with bottles of beer. Back off, Child Protective Services!

Yes, that is my new hair. It is medium golden brown. Apparently, that is my natural color. We matched the box to my overgrown roots, and voila!:

I am Foxy Brown.

Or not.

Why were we Skullz N' Monkeyz? Because Amos was wearing his monkey Robeez shoes and a fancy skull hat. Behold his cuteness.

Yes, we did put the answer "cock ring" to the question of "What new accessory did the Ken doll receive in 1993?" Why? Because Phil and I attended a party full of lovely gay men around that year, and we both swear that we saw a Ken doll with a cock ring at that house.

I pinky swear.

Without a certain someone who is neither Phil nor myself, we never would have made it to 3rd place without her awesome knowledge of odd 80s music and rap. We won not one, but TWO passes (for two people each) to a special screening of Get Smart, that new Steve Carrell cinematic presentation. Seeing as Phil, Amos, and my person will be the only ones who can take part in this event on Tuesday out of the four and 1/2 people to attend our quiz...

Any locals want the other pass? Tuesday at 7pm. Lemme know, all y'all yunz.


If you ever find yourself in need of quizzin', Phil hosts a Geeks Who Drink quiz on Monday nights at The Irish Hound in north Cherry Creek (get your snooty on, y'all). Here are his clever blogs about the many past weeks of rowdy quizzin' action.

Happy Father's Day to the baby daddies in the crowd. I think we are going to nosh on sushi and a wee dram of wine at the City Park Jazz, just like I promised we would do every Sunday. DJ Jazzy Phil and The Fresh Amos need some grooves.


7 beautiful people muttered something back:

Phil "And Monkeyz" said...

Amos is definitely the new king of pub quiz. At least, I'm sure he would have been throwing out the answers if his mouth hadn't been busy gnawing on cheese from our delicious pizza. Sis-in-law Sue, on the other hand, can throw down answers with the best of them. Way to go, Skullz 'n' Monkeyz!

Amos is such a cutie!

Count on gay guys to have a Very Special Ken. Mine had nothing to put a ring on.

Much to my disappointment.

BTW, I'm the one at Aimee's barbeque you couldn't remember. I remember parties with a one year old. Well, I remember constantly watching my one year old and absolutely nothing else!

I have to say you guys sound like a lot of fun! I wish I lived closer...but NY is a wee bit too far.

Stephen said...

If only there was a way for the Skullz 'N' Monkeyz to take on The Muppets in an Transatlantic Pub Quiz.

Amy said...

Okay, when Chris is back in town and we can swing a sitter we are going to the Irish Hound, but only if you and Amos come too. And my brother. I could answer some random 80s crap! I love me some trivia!
