From Italy to Uruguay to Peru to San Francisco, the candy man can...even if the Swiss now own him.
Congratulations from all of us at the IRCPQ to IMSA, the All Shows tickets winners for the month of September!
Everybody, thanks for keeping the pub quiz crowded all month, it's always more fun when the room is full. By the way, we gave out 2310 points this month! I think that's a record. Has anyone else been keeping track?

I'm thinking of two hints for tonight for two different questions. 1) Death by ham sandwich is embarrassing for a Jew. 2) Nah, that question is too easy...never mind.

I've never been much for hints, so I will offer some practical advice for this week's quiz. The Bronx Brewery will be sending a team of its most accomplished trivia boffins to the quiz tonight to compete for some fabulous prizes provided by... um... The Bronx Brewery. So, you'd better show up with full brains if you don't want them to go Ben Stein on you and keep all their prizes.
Another bit of practical advice is that you may want to show up early if you want to get a table. The quiz has been listed as part of NY Craft Beer Week 2011 so I expect throngs* of people to be there tonight.
I'm going to get back to researching questions to stump IMSA**.
See you all tonight!
* - A throng is roughly equivalent to two slews or a little less than a horde.
** - I'm sitting around playing sports video games.
I'm not sure if we'll ever know the real answer to this, but are Allison Janney, J. K. Simmons, and Jim Parsons all related?
