   We put in a decent showing at trivia tonight, finishing third, just two points behind first. We changed a couple of correct answers which is always irritating, but we also switched out two wrong answers for correct ones at the last minute so I guess it balances out.

   Fave question: the US famously discontinued the popular candy known as the Marathon Bar. What is this candy known by in the UK?

   I think we were the only ones to get that one right.

     So it turns out there are two acceptable answers to that question. As a child of the '70s in suburban New Jersey, this was what I understood to be a Maratthon Bar.

     Cadbury in the UK calls this a Curly Wurly, and boy are they delicious

     But also... Snickers? Really?
