Winning Trivia Tourneys in Denver, Colorado, USA

Sep 03, 2004 02:14

Joe and I spent our spoils at the Blue line. It's funny; we drove past this inconspicuous bar and noticed the small banner touting 50-cent Pabsts, and then noticed they had the trivia face-off challenges there on Wednesdays. We met there for the first time last night, and, confident as all get out, blasted the competition. Even better, for the first time, they offered $75 for the winning team, and we were apparently the first team to win that first prize. We called ourselves the "Slovensky Maestry" (Slovak Champions) to avenge the drubbing the Slovaks were taking at the Canadians' hands at that moment.

So tonight we had steak dinners, and treated a new friend of his, a Palestinian named Rima to dinner. She had fascinating stories, having been born in Jerusalem and now frequently traveling among Jordan, Egypt, Israel and Palestinian territories. We went to her house and admired an amazing international collection of artwork.

Deep political discussions . . . .
