Seattle Pizza Club (SPC) is officially started (meaning we have a Facebook page, things just got real). It’s so hot right now, i’m super excited. We’ll start to add people as the page finalizes. I’m also excited because my favorite Seattle pizza place, piecoras, is between number 5-6 on Jay and Scott’s list, and the majority of ones they have above it I haven’t tried, so it could be a pizza discovery explosion out there for me. I feel good about this team…lot of talent.
This is really interesting…
speaking of pizza, tutta bella is offering a free pizza all week. No catch or restrictions, just go in and it’s one free pizza per table. BAM SPC!

In the last month I’ve bought 3 flags. I currently don’t even have “a” flag pole or “a” flag pole holders though, let alone many flag poles and holders that would necessitate an entire flag collection.

I totally blew it and forgot to set up a series recording of bachelor pad, so I didn’t have it on DVR last night, meaning we have to watch it online with commercials (probably downstairs because of the heat which also means setting the speakers back up ahhh). So instead we watched Hard Knocks (those HBO shows totally dominate). I mean, I guess I should always just say I watched something like hard knocks when considering admitting to watching a bachelorette type show, but what can ya do.

The new Reader of the week….Matt Moopie Morgan!! Great game in kickball last night, it’s a luxury to be able to rotate 2 all stars at the 3rd base position. I think it’s safe to say Moopie likes tailgating, beer and bacon. Not really sure how he’d order those though. I owe you a tall can of busch light. (and just to reiterate, moopie is seriously really good at tailgating)
Shout out to…
Bone City!!! Huge win in an intense 1-run game! Welcome to mid-core Orange Crush! (namely Blazey, scotty, and ahern). I wouldn’t be surprised if both our teams meet again in one of the most anticipated championship games of all time in world history)
Shout out to…
Team Pink (Kellen, Tyson, Skeelo, Nate, Ollie, Brian, Matty)!!! Wow what a day, after kickball and some delicious chicken strips at Leny’s we took home the tour championship at Greenlake. Great year and event, good job sam.
This is really interesting…
unfortunately? the fun times aren’t over. BBQ at Sam’s house tonight, all day whiffle ball tournament tomorrow, and then possibly Kells Saturday night, why not?

Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!!! I think Steph’s officially better than me in golf. Seeley was the most well behaved she’s ever been while golfing, she sat down at every green and tee box until everyone was done. meaning she’s probably better at golf than me too (she had some glow gear of her own). “in case you’re wondering my jacket size is 44 long, and my right arm’s just a little longer than my left”

Lately I’m thinking…
Well yesterday was a good news day. company went to kingfish cafe (delicious) for lunch, Stephanie and I went to El Camino for dinner (delicious), Seeley got a new purple leash and our season tickets came in the mail.
Lately I’m thinking…
today’s lineup is just ridiculous as well. Kicball at 6:15 against our friends the “orange crush” (can’t believe that team name wasn’t taken…), a post-kickball/pre-golf celebration at Leny’s Bar, the season ending glow-ball golf tournament at Greenlake once it gets dark, and then a post celebration at St. Andrews. Hello Thursday! Sorry Friday!
Shout out to…
Team Pink! Let’s win the tour championship tonight! Golf is all about concentration (although I’m still trying to find a way around that, stay tuned)

this website of the so called 50 best Saturday cartoons from JB (Jon Brown, good guy). I didn’t really know any in the 50-35 range, Thundercats was WAY too low, and #1 and #2 are pretty bomb in my opinion.

I’m running a new (probably one day) feature called “presents you should never buy for joe”. Here’s one (Thanks Zak)

Here’s a link to Steph’s post on my pizza eating for the new blog readers out there – pretty good stuff
This is really interesting…
Steph’s out of town but made it very clear I mail a package for her as soon as I possibly could. So I took it to work yesterday, taped it all up, and then went to the post office to fill in the address. Turns out it’s a Seattle address, about 1 mile from our kickball game that night. I texted her to see if i should just drop it off but didn’t hear back in time so I mailed it. So basically I paid $8.00 to have it shipped to a place that would take 1 extra day then me just dropping it off that afternoon. I’m probably the first person in united states history to mail a package to someone in their same city
Shout out to…
Some newbies Mike Self and big Jim Miller for showing up to karaoke last night. I had an awesome time. There were these 2 girls there who were totally ringers, probably the best singers I’ve ever heard who did a bunch of songs. And what was their last request?? “Anything for love” by meatloaf. Well it’s safe to say since I was in charge and had a microphone that my name snuck into that lineup. Oh and Bone City dominated, obviously. I went 3-3, 3R and caught 3 pop-ups, no bid deal.
The soapbox…
Have a fun and safe weekend everyone!! “Well, I have a microphone, and you don’t, SO YOU WILL LISTEN TO EVERY DAMN WORD I HAVE TO SAY!” UPDATE: This is my 200th gadget-blog update, congrats everyone who read more than one

I’m actually quite concerned that icing seems to be taking off. Anyways Jakers thanks for relaying the message to Joe.

I forgot to mention that the season finale of the bachelorette was Monday night. The reason I forgot might be because I vowed never to watch the bachelor or bachelorette again now that this season is over – Ollie and I both actually agreed on that. I’m a grown ass man. On a side note, we did agree it would be okay to watch “bachelor pad” because that’s an entirerly new show.
This is really interesting…
Seeley and Steph are both gone until Sunday! The house went from a fun zone to a boring zone, which doesn’t bode well for the power blinds batteries
This is really interesting…
wow what a day! First game of the kickball season and then it’s straight to wedgewood for karaoke!

Joey “almost president” Soueidi on his birthday! It’s why not wednesday, and I hope you take down everyone in billings with you
This is really interesting…
there are a bunch of destroyers, cruisers, battleships (that’s all the names i remember from the game battleship) out in the sound right now for sea fair. I’ve been staring at the window for an hour waiting for them to attack each other, no luck though. On a side note I think it’s supposed to be rainy this weekend for sea fair – how frickin lame is that? I think UW has a big recruit in too, Doh! He can say “i hear it always rains here” and then we can give the traditional “it doesn’t rain as much as you think, and the summers are really amazing” speech….as it rains. (update nevermind hundley is at ucla this weekend and UW next weekend)
Lately I’m thinking…
about Nebel’s bachelor party in Bozeman. yes please
This is really interesting…
I have to manually type in these stupid prompts because I don’t copy and paste from the gadget anymore. It’s really annoying. I suppose this also means I’m not limited to 5 prompts that never change, but then again I don’t usually change either.

That’s one small step for man, and one giant….I have a dream!
