Trivial Pursuit

If you hang around the cockpit long enough, the pilot will eventually trust you with the controls.

Thus, Friend Brian and I will be co-hosting trivia night at Barrow Street Bar this Wednesday, filling in for regular Trivia Master Jeff, whose real job is sending him out of town. (Temporarily, of course.) So if you live in Jersey City, c’mon out for what will surely be the greatest bar trivia experience of your life.

Brian and I decided that we must both agree on each trivia question before we can ask it. It’s our own little system of checks and balances to ensure that the questions are somewhat diverse and don’t merely reflect our own personal interests. Especially since our primary personal interests are Three’s Company (mine) and beer (his).

(Potential trivia question: Where did Mr. Furley go when he wanted a nice cold beer? Answer: The Regal Beagle.)

Speaking of Friend Brian, he and his wife, Michelle, are the wit and charm behind Us vs. Food and its companion blog, Us vs. Beer. The blogs chronicle Brian and Michelle’s culinary and home-brewing adventures, complete with photos that’ll make your mouth water. If you’re like me, you’ll find yourself trying to think of ways to get yourself invited over for dinner, such as mentioning them on your blog. Or perhaps you’ll be inspired to grab a spatula and embark on your own gourmet journey. Either way, the blogs are definitely worth a visit.
