That was beautiful.

I wonder what the future holds for some of the displaced quizzo-ites.

guzzijason will probably end up in another quizzo game mistakenly after going to the wrong restaurant for weeks and never knowing that this game died.

lhalldena will be secretly cheering the passing of this phase of life.

wallflower will no longer get distracted by quizzo and fully concentrate on salsa. And the ladies.

brooke will constantly write posts about missing quizzo games that never happen. It will be sad to watch.

Illiniwek and raidar.adam will turn their attention to their new passion....the game of "Operation". Hahahaha, wrenched ankle. I hear a league opened up in Sharswood.

CWS will say to herself....."wow, were we really doing that?"

niel will keep going back for meatloaf sandwiches and beer because that is the kind of thing that a mayor does.

mja will stay home and continue to beat the pants off of the people on Jeopardy....all while saying...."why didn't this translate to the real thing?"

BeckyJ and dagmar will turn their attention to their art. Their new "Heart" tribute band.

and many of the others will go on with their lives as if this Golden Age of Quizzo never happened. But the history books will never forget. One day we'll look back at this team like we do The Whiz kids, the Gashouse Gang, or well.....the 1964 Phillies.

Oh, and Count Funkula.....well....he'll keep going to Quizzo. He wants to join a winner. He always felt like that 2nd place team of chokers was holding him back. Just look for me....I'll be wearing a neon green sweater. Every month.

I think Funk needs a hug. He has been getting a mean streak in him lately.

I suggest that you turn to the things that can help you forget about the Golden Days of Quizzo.

Porn and drugs.
You obviously don't know what I was doing before Quizzo.

Aww, I miss the Quizzo group a little, too. But I'm pretty sure we don't have to put up with bad jokes and meatloaf sandwiches every time we get together. Our little gang is destined for much greater things!

I say we redouble our effors to find free cheese.

You just miss sitting in the high chair and lording it over us like some aristocratic tennis judge.

Thanks. That balances out grumpy Funk's comment.

Gosh, maybe it's time for a big reunion where everyone can say how their life has gone since the first Tuesday in June.

Even more annoying -- I was a lifeguard.

*tweet* Hey, kid! No running on the Quizzo deck! No, I don't care if it's the speed round... you looking to break your leg?

I've turned to computer fraud. I install wireless networks in homes and then place packet sniffers without the owner knowing it and gather all their personal and credit card information going over the Internet.
