The total for the week: 4 contests, 1-2nd place, 3-1st place.  We are not the smartest group of people but apparently trivia competition experience counts for something.  Beatles trivia last night wasn't the easiest. One fellow, playing by himself, had 114 points before the final question.  He knew 18 of the Beatles 21 US #1 hits. However he bet too many points on the final and missed it.  We took a guess, bet half our points and finished first by 2.5 points.  Final question:  Album sales, put them in order from highest to lowest - "Sergeant Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band", "The White Album", and "Abbey Road".
