In Pursuit of Trivia, Trivial purse suits - sounds better than karaoke.  

Knew wonder (applied to almost every category)…”how did they know that…?” and how did I not know they were going to ask it, the way they did…?”

Think, I'd knew butter ("can't believe it's knot...")…after “🎼all the crap I learned in high school” that the answer would be at least tangentially related to “high school musical”🎵 or at the very least, a dairy-related product...after re-viewing thousands of commercials ("Got - - - - ?")

Hysterical - historical category - we just had to laugh…🎶 having seen the photograph, and started counting...to see "how many holes it takes to fill Albert Hall" No wonder we were late...turning in our answer sheet...

Care-full, caution, caveats …”about your wording and your Pro-nounc-i-a-tion…every syllable and word can count…you out…if you missed what in Trivia, where nothing is so trivial, in the "English Language" category... 

Got no clue…” so said the Dj, (sometimes posing as an MC at such occasions) despite the fact we all pled clue-less... 

Wish I new…then, what I know now, that I could finally, according to Rule #2 he laid down, as in "know fact checking on any smart device" would have been nice…"phone out...go home..." Oh, movies...! And, as for the ever-present songs, that have us singing along, with that go along with the categories...

Hey Mr. DJ... "what do you say, that you turn down the volume a notch, so we can actually THINK?!" 

Overruled, by so many rules and regs, it took all the fun...as in trivialized.

Out-takes: "Frights and Sounds from Trivia Night" As in taking (yet another) commercial break, from March Madness...😠

  "King David, where art Thou?" Here and Now: When I need and you most...for a quote, a tip, let alone a quip... Clever crafted commentary: At his best, in his field, "In my humble opinion..."  "Coming to you tonight..." Each and every night, assuming we welcomed him with his partner, known in our home, as simply "Chet" when we referred to him on his own, but more formally when paired with "David" as the "Huntley-Brinkley" reporting team... Distinctly Brinkley: who got called on whenever things around here, US, were on the brink... "Sow, David..." It's how I heard it, and still remember it, as he was asked to comment, well into the eve of what was casted to be his final telecast of this type, on the eve of a second coming...of the Clintons, their return to the White House...a second (merry) go round... "For the love of Mike!" While he was not shy of the microphone, having gotten used to one on his desk ...
