IT'S FRIDAY NIGHT, TIME FOR TRIVIA, JANUARY 21. 2022

Because so many are feeling the woes of winter, the lyrics below says it all

Baby, It’s Cold Outside

Brrr, ah, that’s nice, now we’re inside
Did you have a good time tonight, Carmen?
Oh, I had a wonderful time, Sam
Oh, good, well, I figured it’d be so much nicer here than outdoors
You know, where the fireplace is going
It’s nice, it’s cozy, it’s warm and nice…

Ah yeah, I really can’t stay (but, baby, it’s cold outside)
I’ve got to go away (but, baby, it’s cold outside)
This evening has been (been hoping you’d drop in)
So very nice
I’ll hold your hands, they’re just like ice

My mother will start to worry (beautiful, what’s your hurry?)
And father will be pacing the floor (listen to that fireplace roar)
So, really I’d better scurry (beautiful, please don’t hurry)
Well, maybe just half a drink more (put some records on while I pour)

The neighbours might drink (but, baby, it’s bad out there)
Say, uh, what’s in this drink? (No cabs to be had out there)
I wish I knew how (your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (I’ll take your hat, your hair looks swell)

I ought to say no, no, no, sir (mind if I move in closer?)
At least I’m gonna say that I tried (what’s the sense of hurting my pride?)
I really can’t stay (oh, baby, don’t hold out)
Ah, but it’s cold outside

Now, that’s nicer isn’t it? We’ve got the magazines all put away
We’re all comfy and warm and… well, Carmen, now…

Uh-uh, I simply must go (but, baby, it’s cold outside)
The answer is no, Sam (but, baby, it’s cold outside)
The welcome has been (how lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm (look out at that window at that storm)

My sister will be suspicious (gosh, your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door (like waves upon a tropical shore)
My maiden aunt’s mind is vicious (gosh, your lips are delicious)
Well, maybe just a cigarette more (never such a blizzard before)

I’ve got to get home (but, baby, you’ll freeze out there!)
Sam, lend me a comb (it’s up to your knees out there)
You’ve really been grand (I thrill when you touch my hand)
But don’t you see? (How can you do this thing to me?)

There’s bound to be talk tomorrow (think of my life long sorrow)
At least, there will be plenty inside (if you caught pneumonia and died)
I really can’t stay (get over that old doubt)
Ah, but it’s cold outside

Well, it may be cold outside, but it is warm in here. Forget about the woes of “old man winter,” and enjoy the evening.

For the newcomers, the questions can be found in the Rewards Store within the Arcade. Questions begin between 8 pm and 8:05 pm EST. depending upon your computer clock. There are six questions during the game. The last question is posted between 10:30 pm and 10:35 pm EST. Again, depending upon your computer clock. Each question lasts approximately 30 minutes, so you will need to come up with the correct response within that time frame. If you answer incorrectly, you will see a red “OOPS.” The incorrect response will not count against you unless the time is up. Each correct answer is worth 200 tickets to use in the Rewards Store against the Featured or Current Sweepstakes. So, before you tear your hair out, before you give up, just return to this thread where one or more of us will be able to help. Also, join us in light conversation, ideas or whatever and LET THE FUN BEGIN…. 🙂
