Totally. He's your trivia nemesis! Your life needs to now revolve around preparing for and arranging the rematch.

Trivia is at the Red Lion from 8 to 10. 2366 Glendale Blvd., 90039 (kind of in the same general area as the house we shot at). If our team fills up (there's a 7-person limit) and there's no room in the room, I'll let you know.

We could've tied him if I hadn't forgotten to answer one of the bonus questions (name the lead singer of the Zombies).

Which Mexican hipster place in Silver Lake? I think you should've gone up to Thom, threw your beer in his face and called him a wanker for taking away the one and only joy you have in your life! Good luck getting a rematch...doesn't look very Optimistic though! Ha!

That wouldn't have been very sporting of me. I prefer to hail to the thief.
