A Serious Pursuit of the Trivial

There’s much pleasure to be gained in useless knowledge.
— Bertrand Russell

As a retired trivia writer, editor, and quiz compiler, I agree with Bertrand Russell’s above quote. I’ve always been fascinated by trivia of all kinds. For many years, I’ve written and compiled it for various media — both traditional and digital — including TV and radio quiz shows, newspapers, magazines, and apps.

I envision this as a daily blog – well, most days – a repository of both useful and useless information presented through thought-provoking questions. These questions might relate to events on a specific day or a theme or simply be about a random selection of trivia. 

I hope you enjoyed visiting my little corner of the interweb and return soon.
