Memorable Moments:
* “Jerry pulled My Ding-a-Ling” -Aaron Murphy
* WWII posters by Tommy
* Eliana and Jennie’s dress-up
* “My gangledopper?” - Darren
* People running around doing grown-up things like moving bath tubs, working at flower shops, and taking kids to piano during trivia. Priorities...
* I can’t remember the question, but it had something to do with a “cup-board.”
* The reading of H36, Q8. I hate to put it on the interweb because it would make a great trivia question in the future. For 100 points, what was the question that Jim Grey could not complete asking and why did he have to hand off the mic? - [note from Jerry: H36, Q8 was a question about VT#21, worth a listen if Darren hasn’t deleted the question recordings yet. Jim Grey’s botched reading was for a question on VT#15, you’ll have to look that up in the question report if you still have access to it]
* Sara’s PSD cake decoration
* WWII poster shirts
* Smoothie hour, Pigs in a Blanket hour, Jello hour, Malt hour, Mystery Muffin hour, Burrito hour
* Computer tragedies: Jodi spilled water on her laptop, Aaron’s laptop died, Sara spilled water on her laptop, hopefully they were all resuscitated
* Watching Twitter trends after Whitney Houston’s death was announced
* Murphy’s amazing work on the phones to get us at least 3 questions’ points as the answer was being given on the radio. I didn’t even know we could do that anymore!
