Hardwood Floors Scratch Easy? & Bibs!

Everybody I know who has hardwood floors talks about how easy it is to scratch them. Yet every bowling alley that I've been to has perfectly shiny and smooth hardwood floors, despite people chucking bowling balls at them all day. What's their secret? If I ever get hardwood floors, I'm going to ask for the "bowling alley package." Unless the secret is wearing those funky shoes. Because that wouldn't be worth it.

I don't really mind going to the dentist, but there is one thing that bugs me about it. You know how they put that paper bib around your neck so you don't drool on yourself or whatever? That part is okay, but what I don't like is when the hygienist starts wiping her instruments on it and stuff. This is my bib, ok? It comes with the checkup. If you need a bib, I'm sure you know where to find them.

Old Chicago in Overland Park now with 2 nights of trivia!

Federal What?

If I just heard Barack Obama correctly in his infomercial, he said he was going to hire an army of teachers and raise current teacher's salaries. Hmmmm, I thought teachers were paid locally? I guess there are federal teachers. Then he talked about the money being spent in Iraq every month and asked a frenzied crowd if they knew how many schools and hospitals could be built here in the United States with that money. That is the most ludicrous thing I've ever heard. He's making it out like if the money wasn't being spent on the war, we'd be building hospitals with it. Excuse me? Again, does the federal government build hospitals in communities? If they do, I'm sorry I didn't know that. If they build schools, I'll say I'm sorry. If Obama saves the money in Iraq, he's going to spend it somewhere else, trust me. Maybe it will be spent on things you personally agree with and that's fine for you. I think it will be wasted, and that's my opinion, We'll see new social programs sprouting up like weeds in my garden. Say whatever you want to say, but please don't act like that money will be spent on things that it won't.

Wind, Solar and BioFuel
I am so sick of hearing this line. Obama is talking about it in his infomercial. McCain says it as well, as has every person that has run for the Presidency since I can remember. We need to get off foreign oil and get on wind, solar and bio. When is it going to happen? It's like Jerry Lewis curing Muscular Dystrophy. Talk about it for 40 years and accomplish nothing.

Tonight 3 shows for your Friday Night week #5 pleasure! Snackers in Blue Springs is having a Halloween Party with Xtreme Team Trivia! Tanner's in Shawnee and Our 1st Friday Night show at Old Chicago in Overland Park with DJ Gribble!

Courageous.....Is That the way to go?

I just got home from the donut shop and reading the Monday paper. One thing I noticed when reading the obituaries is that a lot of people die after a "courageous battle with cancer." Nobody ever seems to die after a cowardly battle with cancer.I hope I don't ever get cancer again because next time I'd completely wuss out and wreck humanity's unbroken streak of stalwart cancer patients. I'd be like, "Oh crap, is that cancer? Tell it I'm not home." Then I'd hide under the bed until it was gone. But eventually, after a long and spineless battle, I would succumb to cancer, and my friends would write an obituary that read, "The Big Dog died from cancer, the big pussy."On the other hand, maybe there's a reason that all of the obituaries are about courageous cancer patients. Maybe only the courageous cancer patients die. So then the trick to surviving cancer would be to wuss out early on. There should be a special section of the paper devoted to people who wussed out in the face of cancer but didn't die: "Joe Smith found out he had cancer and cried like a little girl for three weeks. His family is happy to report that his cancer is now in remission, but they are also a little embarrassed about what a baby he was about the whole thing."

Tonight @ Old Chicago in Olathe DJ Nick host week #5 action as Brown Chicken Brown Cow the #2 ranked team in the city looks to continue their winning ways! The Quigs will try to hang on to their point total lead at Paddy O'Quigley's in Leawood with DJ Charlie Agrusa.

Wow....$1 Bud Light draws, Vodka Red Bulls and Grape Bombs OH MY!!! HANGOVER!

Has anyone ever come up with ways to describe how their hangover feels? well while i have been trying very hard not to move.....because if I do move i have to throw up.....I came up with some ways to describe this paticular hangover.

* for starters the pic of wrestler George the Animal steele gives a very good description!

* My hangover is more powerful than Castle Greyskull and Smurf village combined!

* I feel like their are five tiny midgets wrestling behind my eyeballs

* My head feels like it is full of scotch and anger!

* My hangover feels like it went back in time, kicked Charles Bronson's ass and took over for him in the movie Death Strike....it is a bad ass hangover......this is where your sympathy should kick in and bring me a bowl of Chicken soup...and orange juice and if someone could feed me some saltine crackers that would be awesome! Earlier I was laying in bed and someone rang the doorbell.....dog barked.....I did not risk moving to answer it.....do you ever wonder if when you do that it might be those million dollar prize people and you just missed your oppurtunity of a lifetime?

Now I am not drinking again for two years. (or tonight, whichever comes first). I have pain all over my body and my eyes are bloodshot. It isn't going away for some reason. It is probably unrelated to the drinking. I bet I have eye cancer.

Anyway Show time tonight at Tanner's in Shawnee is 8:30 hosted by the I am never drinking again DJ Me! you can also catch DJ Charlie Agrusa tonight at Snackers in Blue Springs!

How do you get killed by a tiger from San Francisco?

So Last night on the news they were talking about the lawsuit by the family for the guy that was killed by the Tiger at the San Francisco zoo. poor guy. Can you imagine walking down a scenic pathway and then being attacked by a tiger? Named "Tatiana"? I'm guessing this tiger grew up in the hood with a name like that. Why isn't a tiger ever named "Steve"? Since it was in San Fran, I'm surprised it killed somebody. I can see a tiger from the DC zoo or the Detroit zoo killing someone, but you'd think maybe the tiger from San Fran would just jump out and give somebody a makeover or something. Maybe give them a quick mani-pedi? Oh well, this is sad and I hate to make light of it, but geez....we're not safe in a mall, school, Disney World, church....the zoo. Not sure what's left. I'm sure the victim's family doesn't want to hear this but at least it wasn't a child that died. Can you imagine if the thing jumped into a group of toddlers? That would be like me eating popcorn at the movies.

Last night at Tanner's in Shawnee we had an unbelievable crowd! my sound system sucked but the competition was good! Vice Presidents of Awesome (season #7 championship winners-new name) ended up tied with 2 thumbs and kick ass with the Vice Prez taking it in overtime! Tanner's Shannigans came out as did The Wooly Mammoths! Griswolds were in the house along with McLovin and the NASB Hotties came all the way from Gladstone! 2 teams made the Trek from Independence! Next week we will have a way better sound system!! so be prepared for a night filled with montages!

Tonight's Shows.....Applebee's in Ottawa, Johnny's in Olathe, Birdies in Lenexa

and to wrap up today....Go Missouri!!! The Tigers battle Oklahoma State today and did you see the over and under 80! that is crazy! Tigers will cover the 14 point spread tonight! and will be wranked #1 in the country after Oklahoma loses to Texas today!

Rapunzlle, Rapunzlle Let down your receipt from the store!

What in the world is up with today's receipts??

To the people who print receipt tape with ads on the back: Cut it out. When I'm on the phone and I need to quickly find a piece of scrap paper to write down an important phone number, I don't want to see an ad for carpet cleaning. It's universally understood that the back of a receipt should be left blank so that it can be used as scratch paper. It is getting crazy, they are like 10 times longer than they need to be with tons of useless information. there is the part with the personalized message from the employee thanking you an advertisement for how you can phone in your prescription, then there is the ad for the online survey you can take where you could win $1 trillion dollars for filling it out. Then because English is our official language and we have to cater to everyone the whole thing is in Spanish again! and then the date and time is printed like 5 times all over the receipt! and at the very bottom there is a $2 coupon off your next $250 purchase at Walgreens....because everyone spends tons of money when they go to Walgreens, no one goes there to buy like 2 things!!!!!

Week #2 has been fantastic! tonight there is some great competition. In Topeka at Bullfrogs Live...League of Superheroes holds a 30 point lead over the Slackers. More Cowbell looks to build on their 300 point lead at Jerry's Bait Shop in Lenexa. The Underachievers and The Gary are just 15 points our of 1st place at Johnny's in Shawnee.

Wow it tells you when it's Cold!!

Isn't that awesome how Coors has come out with a "cold-activated" bottle. The label’s white lettering and Rocky Mountain icon turn blue when the beer reaches optimal drinking temperature. Thank God for that, huh? Otherwise, how in hell am I supposed to know when my beer is ok to drink? I put a Coors in the freezer and took it out after 3 hours, but the label still said "Coors" so I threw it out!

I went to KFC yesterday have you ever looked at their packets of "honey"? You'll notice that it's actually labeled "honey sauce." Honey is the third ingredient, which means that is at most one third honey. Makes you wonder what the first two ingredients in the "chicken" are.

Week #2 is in full swing, tonight there are four great shows, Old Chicago in Olathe hosted by DJ Nick, Paddy O'Quigley's in Leawood hosted by DJ Charlie Agrusa, Side Pockets in NKC hosted by DJ DC and Tanner's in Waldo hosted by DJ Josie!

so I am in the shower thinking about monkeys!

let's start with "Get your mind out of the gutter"

The other day I noticed that my shampoo bottle claims that its contents were "not tested on animals."This should make me feel good, I suppose, but as usual I thought too hard about what that statement meant exactly, and ended up irritated, confused and wrinkly.I think the controversy about animal testing arises from a misunderstanding of the word 'testing.' To me, 'testing' something means using something in the manner it was intended to be used, to see if you get the desired result. So to test shampoo on a monkey, you would first shampoo the monkey's hair, then rinse the monkey, and finally smell the monkey to see if the monkey still smells like a monkey. If, rather than smelling like a combination of monkey sweat and poo, the monkey now smells like a combination of strawberries and wildflowers, then success! Otherwise, it's back to the lab again.

So while you may hear horror stories about how scientists smear shampoo directly into the monkey's eyes to see how they'll react, I think that such cases are probably rare, and result mainly from inadequate training of the scientists. I think the scientists just need to be told what shampoo is actually for, and that they can assume that having shampoo smeared into your eyes (or your monkey's eyes) is going to hurt like hell, so they don't really need to test for that.

I say that if manufacturers aren't going to bother to go through the due diligence of animal testing, they should be required to pay the first couple hundred humans who try their product. Besides helping to ensure that our shampoos are properly tested before being sold in stores, this system would also open up employment opportunities to individuals who might otherwise not be able to find jobs. I'm speaking, of course, of the chronically dirty.Just imagine what would happen if a shampoo manufacturer sent a bus through the seedy parts of town offering free shampooing to all of the homeless people, in exchange for a warm meal, a bed for the night, and signing a release form waiving them of any liability. Best case scenario, you'd have a lot of clean, well-rested homeless people who smell like strawberries and wildflowers. And even if things go horribly wrong and they all die of cancer, at least you'd have fewer homeless people

alrighty then Week #1 is off to a great start! Chicken Little came over to Tanner's on 87th and Knocked off the top teams there, I Kiss Girls knocked off Car Ramrod last night at Tanner's 119th and the Xtreme Team Trivia locations are all looking very competive! Remember it is only a nine week competition this time!

Fortune Cookies?? and Week #1 starts Today!

I had Chinese Food for lunch yesterday, it was very tasty but then my weird thinking took over......I don't get fortune cookies. Don't get me wrong -- I don't have a problem taking advice from a cookie, but aren't there more reputable cookies around? Fortune cookies are pretty much the worst cookie ever. Why would you listen to a cookie that can't even get its own stuff together? Focus on being a halfway decent cookie for a while, and when you've got that down, come back and tell me about my hidden talents that will soon become obvious to those around me. An Oreo -- now there's a cookie I'd listen to. I'd take stock tips from an Oreo. And between you and me, if one of those Girl Scout cookies with the caramel and coconut told me to, I'd kill a man.

Week #1 starts tonight! If you live on the Missouri Side, Go Check out Sunday Nights at Side Pockets in Blue Springs as the Trivia Master of Xtreme Team Trivia is back at the Helm as DJ Mike Shortino is back as the Sunday Night host of Xtreme Team Trivia! Show time is 8pm in Blue Springs!

Herman Edwards to accept Government Position!

3 Quarterbacks in 1 Quarter, now that is expert leadership! Starting Tyler Thigpen now that is expert leadership! These incredible decision's have not gone unnoticed. Rumors are swirling that Kansas City Chiefs Head Coach Herman Edwards will be ask by President Bush to become the new head of FEMA. The United States Government is impressed at how fast Mr. Edwards has evacuated 70,000 Fans from Arrowhead every Sunday! President bush is also impressed with his political quotes over the past years in fact the Iraqi Information Minister says he learned how to do his job from watching Herman Edwards!

"The only good thing about this is, it's only one season. It's not a bunch of seasons."

"I'm not a panic guy. I don't do that. Can't. When you're a leader, you can never panic, no matter what's happening. The building could be falling down. Fire could be going all places. Somebody has to make a decision on how to get out."

"That's always a concern with a player when he is injured. There's a difference between injury and pain. If a guy is injured, he’s injured. Guys can play with pain. Guys can't play when they are injured."

"You're positive going into this game, and excited, but you don't know."

"We’ll get better as the year goes on. We’ve got a young athletic front seven, and we play with a lot of energy and enthusiasm as a football team. I think that is what people will notice about us – but hopefully they won’t notice us for awhile."

"When you go to the prom, you go rent your tuxedo, you get one of those big limousines and you feel pretty good. The next day you come to school, you're driving a Volkswagen."

"When you're a head coach, you don't know where to stand. You're screwed up. You go on the field, no one's talking to you. 'Somebody's gonna talk to me.' You don't know what to do. So you go over and talk to the other head coach, and kind of shake his hand, then you go, 'Where do I stand?'

Edwards coached teams have always stuck rigidly to the Herm Playbook. This playbook consists of this: Run, Run, Pass, Punt. Edwards is on record as saying any drive that ends in a punt is a good drive

Sunday Night Week #1 of Xtreme Team Trivia Season #8 kicks off in Kansas City! Season #8 will be a Nine Week Competition & Their willl only be 6 Regional Finals! Xtreme Team Trivia Championship #8 will be held on December 14th!

Omaha, Side Pockets is rocking on Monday Nights with an average of 20 teams every Monday Night!

And in St. Louis, you now have 3 locations to play, Side Pockets, Hot Shotz & Harpos!

Since When does lead kill you?

I don't understand why people are freaking out about a little lead in toys. When I was a kid, I used to play with little paintable Dungeons & Dragons figurines. You know what those things were made of? Lead. That's right, the toy company would just pour a little glob of molten lead into a mold shaped like an elf princess and call it a toy. You're worried about a little lead in the paint on your Bratz(TM) Dream Crib*? Please. We used to paint our lead toys with lead-based paint in radon-filled rooms blanketed with asbestos insulation while sitting on furniture made out of cyanide and rattlesnakes.One time my junior high teacher confiscated my lead orc figurine -- not because it was made entirely of poison, but because he thought it might be satanic. The grownups back then could care less about whether you were playing with toxic substances. They'd let you play with anything that wasn't possessed by a demon.*No Bratz products have been shown to contain any hazardous substances. They will, however, turn your six year old into a Hooker!

Thigpen Turned on for game???

Tyler Thigpen saw his first NFL action on Sunday as did everyone else on the team that had never played QB in the NFL! But after the game Tony Gonzales gave us a little more info than we needed.......He said "Once Damon went down, Tyler's package expanded". Wow!! now that is inside information!

What is up with Herman Edwards, yesterday he showed why he is now 12 games under .500 as an NFL head coach. That was pathetic football! Yesterdays absurd decisions assured that the Chiefs will have some blacked out games this year, who wants to pay the $22 to park to watch that! The only bad news about yesterday is that the St. Louis Rams are trying to give the Chiefs a run for their money in the battle of who is going to get the #1 Draft Pick next year! Thank God for the T-Bones....at least their good! Oh and by the way the Missouri Tigers are favored by 28 to beat the Chiefs next week......and in week 4 the early line has Rockhurst as a 3 point favorite!

Growing up in the 70's

After getting home from my show last night I was flipping through channels while eating my Taco Bell and spotted Scooby Doo! I have not watched an episode of Scooby Doo in forever. It was not one of "classic episodes". The Episode featured Scooby Dumb. I Believe Scooby Dumb was the beginning of the end for the Scooby Doo Crew. And then Scooby Doo got even worse when they added that puppy power dude. I got to thinking while watching the show that it seemed a little weird that Fred was never mac'n on any other chics and never made a move on Daphne. Daphne was hot! Fred did wear a scarf maybe that had something to do with it. Another thought I had while watching the show is what are kids today afraid of? Back in the day, they had us scared of all kinds of mysterious things, The Bermuda Triangle, Bigfoot, The Loch Ness Monster & Jimmy Carter. I remember worrying that we might all have to go fight in Russia or die from Nuclear Fallout but Ronald Reagen saved us from that. I remember shows like Brady Bunch going to a "real" Ghost Town or that evil Head Hunter on gilligans Island. Oh well it must be nice to be a kid today and go to sleep thinking about Miley Cyrus, Britney Spears, Pizza and text messaging!




Pacman Jones is trying to change his name. To start with he no longer wants to be called Pacman. He's going back to his give name "Adam". I wonder if inky, blinky & Clyde will try to change their name to. If Pacman wants to change his image - I would recommend that he just stop breaking the law!

Fuel in Independence will host Regional!

Omaha goes Ape for Xtreme Team Trivia!

Mike Shortino & I took Xtreme Team Trivia on the road last night to Omaha, Nebraska....Home of the College World Series! We got there early and stopped into the Zoo in Omaha..I would highly recomend the Omaha Zoo. In fact this is a picture of the Gorilla and Mike....Mike is the one in front the Gorilla is in the background. after the zoo, it was onto Side Pockets in Omaha. The crowd ate up their first Xtreme Team Trivia experience! So beginning next monday night - Side Pockets of Omaha is our newest location!

I Don't want to say Brodie Sucks......But.....

But......He Sucks! somebody ask me Saturday night why he is the starter for the Chiefs. The reason is simple. The Chiefs lost all six games Brodie Croyle started last year, so naturally he's their number 1 guy. He cracked the 200
yard threshold just once last year and he threw as many picks as scores. When Tyler Thigpen is a threat to your job you pretty much suck. I was reading Brodie Croyles personal bio and it was very sad. The bio is posted on the Kansas City Chiefs Website. and includes the following:

Participated in the February 2008 grand opening ceremonies at Bass Pro Shops location in Independence, Missouri.

Hosted a Turkey Trot Charity Hunt in April 2008 to benefit the Big Oak Ranch.

Serves as a spokesperson for Johnson County CASA (Court Appointed Special Advocates)

Wishes he didn't suck as bad as he does, dreams of being Damon Huard.

Isn't your football bio supposed to include like football stats, heroics or maybe describing a big win!

Now let me preference the next part of this with I am highly jealous..but you know you suck when your an NFL Quarterback and you google your name and your way hot wife comes up first..seriously try it! Kelli Croyle.....um wow! this finally gives us the answer to why he sucks....could you concentrate on football with this at home....1st of all I would never go to practice! I would stay home and practice! congratulations to Brody Croyle....he will never win an NFL game...but he will always have the hottest wife in the NFL!

Just 14 days left of Xtreme Team Trivia Season #7!

Week Nine starts tonight! there are many close races at the 55 locations to find out which teams will earn automatic bids by winning the 10 week point total competition. There are also many locations who have some close contest to find out which teams will make the top 10 to qualify for championship week! Good Luck in Week Number Nine! Next week point totals will double for the final week!so everyone is still has a great chance heading into the final week of competition!

2a.m. text necessary......Really?

what a riveting moment in American History! there I was laying in bed trying to go to sleep flipping back and forth between the movie classic The Condemed starring wrestler Stone Cold Steve Austin and reruns of Saved By The Bell which is supposed to be based on the High School lives of Zach, Screech, Kelly the other 4 hot chicks and Slater! the writers were Virgins, because if it was true Zach and Kelly and the other 4 hot chicks ( I myself thought the black girl was totally incredibly gorgeous!) would have been focusing the episodes on condoms, teen pregnancy, threesomes and going through break ups in relationships because you went out with my 4 hot friends behind my back stories! anyway, there it was "THE TEXT". False alarm i was pretty sure Big Foot was not selected as Obama's running mate, neither was Mickey Mouse, Ross Perot, Michael Phelps or Jason Whitlock which I had been told in text messages throughout the day. Then when it seemed like the news would never come, as the Secret Service agents took their places around Senator Biden's house....at 2:45 a.m. I got the news Obama/Biden 2008! I was so excited I went to sleep! I am thinking they sent the text at this time to prove to everyone that Obama was indeed ready for that 3a.m. call...even on a Friday Night! Luckily for the Democrats this should now guarantee them that coveted Delaware vote!

I Feel sorry for Hillary, O.K. not really I have never been a big fan, which reminds me last night in St. Louis while walking into a casino...Mike and I had to run for cover because there was sniper fire everywhere! by the way while we are on the casino topic.... the casino's in St. Louis suck, we went to one that reminded me of the one from Family Vacation...same cheesy shirts...i half way expected them to have how many fingers behind my back as a casino game! the only good one was the Ameristar...and maybe Harrah's. oh well.....maybe Hillary will form her own political party...they could call it the Little girl who didn't get picked so I am going to through a tantrum party!

Big Foot Discovery a Hoax -- Duh!!!

Like we didn't already know this...... first clue for me was that if someone really found Big Foot why would you only take 1 picture?? 2nd if your in the woods were these things live....um don't go in those woods!! There are only a couple of reasons why if Big Foot existed he has never been discovered......reason #1 -- he kills everyone that sees him! and reason #2 he doesn't exist!

now if this had been real can you imagine what people would say........Al Sharpton would have probably thought the killing was reacially motivated. Alanis Morrissette would have said his killing is Ironic...Don't you think. Dick Cheney would have said that Big Foot was really a terrorist and that is why we have to bomb Iran. Dr. Phil would have said to Big Foot "how does that make you feel". Miley Cyrus would have cuddled up next the carcus naked and then had people take photos! Barrack Obama would have announced that Big Foot was his running mate and did speeches about the two of them bringing about change! John Edwards would have admitted he had a short affair with Big Foot and that he would take a paternity test but Big Foot did not want him to! Ann Coulter would have talked about how her Uncle Cletus had his fireworks stand destroyed by a Liberal Big Foot and how Liberals never want to see the truth and believe he was real. Angelina Jolie would have rushed to adopt Big Foot! but enough about that....to me it looked like one of the "serious" trivia players at The Westport Flea Market"!!!

Olympics ban performance enhancer!

O.K. so I am watching the Olympics this week when they have a segment on banned performance enhancers. Going into this Olympic games they decided to ban a performance enhancer made from deer penis. I think this is a great Idea! and you know who was really happy to hear about this? The Deer! but this got me to thinking even more in my warped mind....How did they find out this was a performance enhancer? Did somebody eat one and then found out they could run faster? and even more gross and thought provoking how many different animals did they try before coming up with the deer penis idea? I am by no means a genius but I am thinking if this works why not try road runner or Cheetah. If you are a swimmer like Michael Phelps would you have to use an animal that is from the water and do fish even have one??? anyway that is what has been keeping me up all night!

Tonight Week #8 action heats up at Old Chicago with DJ Nick! 3 Teachers and a Roofer lead the 10 week competition with Kiss Army trying to catch them! So stop into night and party with DJ Nick, enjoy some great food and Drinks during week #8 action at Old Chicago in Olathe!

Chiefs begin new tradition a salute to how many fans are in the stands!

The Kansas City Chiefs have started a new NFL tradition! Last night for the first time in NFL history they had the players hold up their helmets for every fan in the stand in the 4th quarter! Steven "never been to a Chiefs game before" McBride was saluted with 3:35 seconds to go in the Chiefs 2nd preseason game. It was a touching moment. The Chiefs had an Undrafted Rookie hold up his helmet for the Salute. originally they were going to have one of their pro bowl defensive players do the honor and then they remembered they did not have one. Are the Chiefs truly going to rebuild with Brody Croyle, Somebody Thigpen, and Damon Huard....does Thigpen have a first name?? I always assume people are talking about the Charlie Brown cartoon when someone says his name.

On To Trivia!!!! -- Week #8 kicks off tonight with many close 10 week competition battles! also about half the locations have a lot of teams trying to get into the top 10 in scoring! definitely the closest battles in Xtreme Team Trivia history!

Flash Gordon Sucks!

Well just got through doing more work on gathering sound clips for Trivia and wrapped up my night with the Movie Flash Gordon. This has to be one of the worst movies of all time! first of all not a single good sound clip, which shouldn't come as a surprise since the acting was let's say a little below bad! The plot was amazing, scientist kidnaps a football player who plays for the New York Jets, takes him to some far off planet to try and save the earth! There were only two good things about the movie, the first was when Queen broke in with "He'll Save everyone of Us, Stands for everyone of us!" because then you knew the movie was almost over! and you can't use the song for trivia since it says Flash about 100 times!

The second good thing about the movie was Princes Aura, she was Fine!! hot, gorgeous, sexy and um kind of Good Looking in a 1980's Sci fi sort of way!

But she still cannot beat the hottest Sci-Fi Woman on the the planet From the Great TV show Buck Rogers.... Lt. Wilma (who cares what her last name is, no guy ever ask what a girl's last name is!) she had that gorgeous smile, Great hair...and the hottest form fitting outfit of all Time! the only thing you have to worry about is her taste in men.... she dated a guy who hung out with a mini robot....that had two different voices his and the thing that talked in the circle of the robot and Buck's best friend was like that dude that was like part human part Eagle. In Fact I think next week all female trivia players should honor actress Constance Moore and wear a similar outfit to Trivia! it could be worth bonus points!!!!!!

Hooters @ The Speedway closest race after 7 weeks!

Hooters at the Speedway with Host DJ jami has the tightest competition after seven weeks. The Fat Lip Distributers lead Hooterlicious by just 20 points! Show time at Hooters is 8pm!

The Jam Packed Wednesday night show at Tanner's 119th which last week looked to be a runaway is now down to just 55 points as Car Ramrod erased a 1,000 point deficit to now hold the 55 point lead over My Favorite Team!

and at Fuel in Overland Park a shout out to team Feeling Lucky who has played in a couple locations over the last year and finally settled on Fuel in Overland Park as being their best show at heading to the Big Championship. During Season #6 they were beaten by The Tub Girls but this time jumped out to an early lead and are now trying to hold off the Fuck The Power & Light team. Feeling lucky has a 180 point lead with three weeks left! Can they hold on to earn their first ever Big Championship automatic bid?

Change in use of Electronic Devices!

In a very intense business meeting last night around a big conferencence table, the decision makers of Xtreme Team Trivia, debated back and forth for hours. O.K so it was not really very intense and it was over free steaks from Harrah's and about 3 hours of Black Jack! The decision makers (Mike Shortino & The Big Dog) of Xtreme Team Trivia came to a decision that we will now allow the use of electronic devices 365 days a year!! Electronic Devices will now be allowed during Championship Week, Regional Finals and at the 4 Major Championships each year! so get ready to google, Call People, use your cell phones and Laptops and have more fun playing Xtreme Team Trivia than ever! Xtreme Team Trivia where the trivia is so Xtreme....."Cheating Is Encouraged"

Shortino Hard at Work!

I just wanted everyone to see how hard my business partner Mike Shortino works on Xtreme Team Trivia everyday! This is pretty much what he does on a daily basis to contribute to helping me The Big Dog produce and run Xtreme Team Trivia. I am not in the picture because while he was doing this i was working feverishly that night on writing new trivia & inputting scores on the website!
