Beaten By Whores!

That's right, even the Dirty Whores whipped our asses at last night's trivia challenge! You really would have thought a bunch of homos would have known their Greek Gods wouldn't you? Oh, no! Another double or nothing loss that relagated us again to the bottom of the pack.

Thanatos? The god of dreams? Come on! If I'd just thought back a little to my comic collecting days... and Thanos, the death-worshipping Avenger-battling titan. really, what good is it being a geek if you can't use it to your (team's) advantage?

Will our team, Hard Dickens Cider, be able to pull off the comeback of the century? Toppling The Sausage Party (with their smart guy new addition), The Cromulans (the cheaters?) and The Clap (love those team jackets!) to take our rightful place at the top of Finn McCool's trivia tournament leader board (and winning that mystical limo ride and open-bar happy hour)? Unless Scott and Greg, our fearless leaders, can come up with a catchy cheer to shout out each time the scores are read, I fear all hope may be lost!

This week's trivia however once again proved what a small town LA can be. One of the new additions to the team was actually a guy I interviewed with some months back when I applied for a position at The Argyle (recently renamed The Sunset Tower Hotel) on Sunset. It was very much one of those "where the hell do I know you from" sort of experiences. Had we chit-chatted at the some party? Sucked face some druken night at a club? No, he offered me a job and I'd turned it down. Lovely!
