Think you know all about Homer and his deliciously dysfunctional family? Go up against some other fans at today’s Geeks Who Drink: Yellow Fever – The All-Simpsons Quiz. We can think of some softball questions. What’s the family dogยs name, and what instrument does Lisa play? But there’ll also be mid-level questions. Here’s a couple: What are the names of Marge’s sisters? Which two cats appear on the show (here’s a hint: Their names start with the letter “s”). And, experts, what does the “J” in Homer J. Simpson’s name stand for? And how did Maude Flanders die? (Sure, you might think you can answer these questions now, but how about after half a dozen beers or so? You won’t be so smart then, will ya?) 8 p.m. Taps House of Beer, 5120 Washington Avenue. For information, visit www.geekswhodrink.com. Free to $5.
