I also announce my KG Tris Trivia Contest to win a two-pack of Hornet Juice. Listen to the podcast trivia question and email me with your answer no later than midnight Friday, November 6, 2009 (PST). If I get more than one correct answer, I will draw a winner. The winner's name will be announced on my next episode.
