In tonight’s Braggart Watch: I’m somewhat proud to report that my partner Dena and I kicked a little ass tonight, winning the inaugural Dallas Association of Young Lawyers Trivia Bowl. Pitted against the finest young legal minds of the Metroplex, Dena and I somehow came out on top. (In answer to your obvious thought — “Wait, I didn’t know Josh was a lawyer!” — yeah, I’m not. I was brought in as a ringer.) We finished the season with five straight wins, then went 3-0 to win tonight’s playoffs.
It was fun bringing all the old quiz bowl reflexes out of storage. The most fun, as it did in high school, came in beating the team that took things waaaay too seriously — the one that actually held pre-match practices, the one that clearly had their firm’s reputation and their entire self-worth on the line. I am accepting all Trivial Pursuit challenges.
In unrelated news, I was told tonight that I looked like a cross between Bono and Patrick Swayze. Hmm. I’m not feeling particularly flattered. Those who know me are free to comment on the comparison.

Yeah, I can see it. Maybe with a little Ewan McGregor thrown in the mix.
No. Viking… doesn’t anyone listen to me? Viking. All the way.
Although, on second though, hmm… I can see it. Yeah. That’s about right.
I’m telling you, Conan and Andy’s love child was the best description of you I’ve heard yet!
Heh. Quiz bowls were fun!
What 2 parts Bono, 3 parts Swayze? What kind of ratio did they have in mind? ;0.
