72 out of 80

Last night Jim and I met up with friends for trivia at the Old Peculiar Irish Pub. We thought we had a winning team, but only managed to come in second. But hey, we won $20. We also scored a free pitcher of beer for being in fourth place after four rounds of questions. Check out the blog entry by the guys who host it. Don't ask about the name of our team; Jim and Steve had the song "Free Ride" stuck in their brains since poker night last week. Big props to Jim, Steve, the Professor and Izzie for leading the team to almost-victory!

Addenda:
1) We scored 70 of 80. The winners had 72.

2) Someone posted these corrections to 2 of the questions:

The Sepik also flows through Indonesia.

Utah and Colorado share a common border that is not along a line on longitude. Wikipedia failed you on that one.
