Trivial pursuit

In Steven's Point this weekend. Playing the world's largest trivia game. The college radio station asks a trivia question, plays two songs, and in that time you have to call in with your team number, and the answer. You get points depending on how many people answer the question. And they are OBSCURE questions. We have 7 laptops connected to the internet in our hotel room. It's pretty cool. We were completely clueless on one of the questions (what was the 11th rule in the tv movie "Love Rules"?), so we answered "not in the butt". Apparently, everyone else guessed that, because we were all wrong. I guess we're sleeping in shifts this weekend, so we can answer questions the whole time. They also give you clues to find things in town and you drive around following the clues until you reach an eventual checkpoint, where someone gives you a stamp or something. It reminds me of the scene from Short Circuit 2 where they try to find Johnny 5 by his musical clues. Remember that? Awesome. You get 10 points.

holy shit. Of all the references you could've made, you made a Short Circuit 2 reference. I think the slight psychic connection we established after living together in college for all those years is still intact. Part of the trivia thing was called "trivia stone". It was like a scavenger hunt, where you had to drive around the city following clues, and reach a guy who gave your trivia book a stamp showing that you found him. When we were out doing that, I said it reminded me of SC2. "Help me Rhonda, help help me Rhonda". Weird!
