Quiz 381

Last night was bloody horrendous, I can't remember a time when a quiz went so badly. Apologies again to The Magic Numbers who I originally declared the winners only to discover that I'd made an error on the score sheet. In fact The Alliance were our winners with 92pts, The Magic Numbers were second with 90pts and Last Night of the Props were third on 84pts. I've got a good head start on next week's quiz so I'm going to take it easy today and pick up again tomorrow. Don't forget to check out the NASA joke at the end of this post.
