LEAGUE NEWS #3:
The Last Call Tournament of Champions is coming! (Some other name coming soon - about 100 other organizations have that name, and Jeopardy! has it pretty well locked down for trivia.)

Tonight's Q:
Jane Pratt was the founding editor of now-legendary teen magazine Sassy in the late 1980s. What were her nicknames for the three main writers? Answers in the can by 7:40. I'll draw one winner then.
Tell me her name, and the name of the woman who co-wrote the screenplay anytime after 7:32 PM tonight (in person, at On Tap at the Harbor) for a prize.
ROBO-BONUS: Name 5 of the robots below for an additional prize!
I'm feeling a little nostalgic for failures of the 1990's, so:
Tonight's question: Once referred to as
"the Waterworld of videogame consoles" what electronic device was
released in 1995, marketed as the first "portable" video game console
capable of displaying "true 3D graphics", and was killed a year later,
having sold less than a million units?
It's warming up outside, and our weekly game is doing the same. If you want a hint for tonight, it might help for you to learn a thing or two, or even 3.14 things about pie.
Or, actually, to take a look at the first fifty digits of pi. Tonight's question: On this day in 1957, BBC news programme Panaorama announced that due to the mild winter and the "virtual disappearance" of a predatory weevil, Switzerland had produced a bumper harvest crop of what food? First one to tell me, correctly, after 7:33 wins a prize. Info on our Hosts: Have you "liked" On Tap at the Harbor on Facebook? If you haven't here's what you are missing: * A weekly bonus question from me, good for a free shot * Their upcoming live music events * Info on great parties, events and contests On Tap at the Harbor has an EXCELLENT beer selection.
