March is certainly in like a lion, eh bitches? Like a cold, testes-retracting lion. Daaaaaaamn. I don't like to admit this very often as I'm in lurve with this little city of ours, but I'll cop to it: I'm ultra-jealous of all of our readers/listeners from different warm climates all over the earth. Your testes are probably hanging in their normal, non-painful location outside your innards. Well, good for you and your carefree, happy-go-lucky testes.

Speaking of warm locations, those of you who checked out the News page already know - thanks to the Podsafe Music Network, our music was played in Venezuela yesterday. That's four continents and counting since we started the whole podcasting experiment. Very exciting. My gut tells me that Australia will be next, but I'm pulling for Antarctica. Penguins love power pop.

And speaking of pops, I had a graduate school-related interview yesterday and (since the last time I had to wear a suit, I was a giant lardass fatty boombaladdie) had to borrow one of my dad's suits. I was looking spanky and the interview went well, but as I was walking out I reached into the inside pocket and found... a rosary. That's not a good sign for an evil lapsed Catholic such as myself. Goodbye, grad school. Thanks for nothing, old man.

And finally, I heard the greatest team name for a bar trivia team ever last night: Don't Kill a Stripper Because They're Already Dead Inside. Classic.

Just so you know, that's a Family Guy quote.

Just sayin'.

i KNEW that sounded familiar.

steph and i always had the lamest trivia team names. i can't remember any, but they were pretty bad. we tried so hard every week, but nothing.

there were always some good ones though that we would hear during the scoreboard sound off.

Brendan hates The Family Guy, which is too bad because it is freakin' hilarious as everyone has known for 7 years now.

Except the High and Mighty one. Of course.

Some of my bar trivia team names were The Giant Ass on the Wall, Jesus Christ (which did not go over well), No Mas Manos (when Manos left town), and my personal favorite, Linda Feeds it to her Chickens.

What does PWN3D mean? Sounds dirty.

oh, that reminds me, i think one of ours was "our bartender looks like jesus"

because he did/does.

i feel like we had one that was really dirty and funny, but i need steph to save me on this one--i don't remember.

we actually used to email each other with possible names. then on the ride over, we'd go through the top ones and we would try to have one before we got there.

There was one trivia host who took forever with his bad jokes and just wasted so much time. He was a tool, so I wanted to name our team "Shut Up and Read the Question, Dickface," but I was voted down.

1. pwned
A corruption of the word "Owned", or more sarcasticly to mock 1337 speak.

If you think pwned can be attributed to a single source you are retarded.

Example:

retard1: pwned originated with quake

retard2: no it started with warcraft

nonretard: Its a fucking typo, like 'teh' or 'pron'. If you were older than 11 you'd know typos happened even before 1337 made tham 'cool'.

otherguy: you faggots just got fucking pWn3d!::

Thank you, Henry. That's good to know. Mostly because it's incredibly dumb.

In this example, I just got pwned.

Or more specifically Brend0wN3d!::

Sorry I couldn't save you on this one, Stacy...the Bureau recently updated our system, and I can no longer post on Brendo's journal while at work. Stupid government - do they expect their employees to actually work or something?!?

I can't remember any of our trivia team names. Prasanta may remember though. However, the one to which you're referring, I believe, had something to do with female genitalia and is unsurprisingly credited to my former roommate.

I just realized some people might think I was referring to Betsy in my former comment. For clarification, I was referring to her successor.

I feel so out of the loop. I don't think I've ever done one of those trivia thingies. :(

In all fairness, you don't really go to bars.
