Yes, I am a geek

Well, I am rested, caffeinated and have cleaned out the eye goblins after a brief and restless two hour nap.

Risking that I might just appear a little geekier than I did one day ago, trivia might be the intellectual equivalent of the BSG episode 33. In the first episode after the miniseries, the Galactica and surviving members of the fleet have to execute a jump every 33 minutes for over five consecutive days. Instead of starting a jump clock, every three minutes multiple players on our team holler out “QUESTION!” To get all the chatty folks to shut up so we can hear the next, well… question. We shut off all the cooking devices and everyone refocuses—no matter how tired you are—to hear it and start the search for an answer. Every three minutes, until late Sunday night.

I didn’t get much sleep from 8 to 10:30 because every few minutes I would be awoken by someone screaming “question.” Speaking of which, we just had an on-campus and off-campus shut out… So it’s time for the hoot of “Question!”

*Hey Gaeta, I seem to have lost something on New Caprica. Perhaps, you Cylon buddies know where it it*
