I'm sure most of us have the e-mail by now, but here is the Topix for the coming month...

    August 2 - Amusement Parks
    August 3 - Rachel Weisz
    August 9 - The Beehive State
    August 10 - Music Festivals
    August 16 - George Armstrong Custer
    August 17 - Movies About Writers
    August 23 - Space Exploration
    August 24 - Sporty TV Shows
    August 30 - 2012 Olympics in Review
    August 31 - New York Movies

This seems to be a much better list than those of the past few months!

I like all the August Thursday topics. I will probably play every Thursday, something I have not done in several years.

I believe the answer to every question will be "is hot."

Didn't we just have music festivals a few months ago? I guess that game was so lame they wanted to encore it.

I guess the question writer didn't get the memo that MNF is a two man booth this season

And, apparently we should all now know that Survivor is a sports show. :roll: :(

I was disappointed that the Space Exploration topix was entirely about unmanned missions. "Unmanned Space Exploration" would have been a much more accurate description.

I noticed that as well, although I still thought it was a great game. Like other Topix that I have looked forward to, it's too bad they have to pare everything down to 15 questions, but that's how it is. Instead of 30 questions about current sports (and there are those who would be thrilled at this; I'm not among them), I would love to have seen 30 questions on space exploration, either manned or unmanned.

Had they asked a question about manned exploration, they would likely have asked about Apollo 11 or Neil Armstrong, and the timing of that wouldn't have been the best. R.I.P., Neil. :cry:

That was my "EGADS...WTF!?!" moment of the night.

Just gotta get the 'reality' TV question in somehow, I guess.
