It all began in 1997, on an unseasonably warm weekend in February. We had no cell phones, no computer, and no plan -- just fifteen teenagers, one mom, one landline, Reen's cappuccino machine, a truckload of pink Valentine's candy, and a dog.

We were hooked.

Trivia has changed a lot in ten years, and so have we. Trivia is much the same as it's always been, and we are that as well. We still decend on someone's basement Friday afternoon, only now we fill it up with monitors and network cables in addition to ourselves. Some team members have moved away, some have started their own teams, but still House of Insanity fills up with new friends, and, as we grow older, new family. We eat too much and sleep too little, we corner the market on caffeine consumption, we miss questions we should've known and guess questions we have no business knowing. Then there's the mad dash to clean up, old friends at the Awards Ceremony, and (now that we're legal) the Shake A Hamster Band at the Red Carpet.

Have a Good. . . . .Spend Some Time.

Wait! I almost forgot! The folks over at 88.1 KVSC on the beautiful St. Cloud State University campus deserve our praise and adoration. Without them none of this would happen and February would be empty and sad.

3/21/07 - Huzzah! We've got (most of) the website up! Hopefully the rest will be up without much delay.

Do you know whose ass this is? I came across it among the pictures from 2002, along with several other ass shots. I was able to put names to all of them but this one.
