INTERESTING MOMENTS
We asked what people often leave for Santa’s reindeer that they shouldn’t, and got responses of cocaine, plutonium, and guns. Which is… not wrong, but makes us concerned that someone has been leaving cocaine, plutonium, and guns for Santa’s reindeer.
When one of our hosts played Country Roads by John Denver on a night when we were having audio difficulties, the entire room joined in and sang along. Normally we advise people not to sing the answers, but on a song like that, we’re pretty sure everyone knew it anyway.
One of our teams who were in the minority on the dilemma question about wearing boxing gloves for a year in exchange for a large cash payment made up a long list of reasons why the majority was wrong.
And our quarterly tournament is getting close to the business end, and there’s still a lot that can happen both on total points and average.
