Lately I’m thinking…

Tanner you’re smart planning a week’s worth of pictures, gadgets just seem so much easier when the picture is lined up. Instead I’m sitting here scrolling through my photobucket account trying to find one I didn’t already use last week. Out of 3 pictures I was going to use this one took 3rd, but i decided to use it anyway, basically for no reason other than I’m unpredictable! what am i talking about? Anyways, I rode this bike to the gas station all by myself and rigged up the beer and ice, so i was pretty happy with myself. Scratch that, REALLY happy with myself. Unfortunately, half the ice melted on the 5 minute ride home, but seriously, what can ya do, it was hot!

This is really interesting…

Well after a 60 degree saturday with patio beers and flip flops Seattle tied a record low last night. Hey Seattle, Montana called and they want their crazy weather swings back!

This is really interesting…

Seriously though, Montana holds the U.S record for all time temperature range with the record low being -70 in January and the record high being 117 in July. What’s EVEN CRAZIER is Montana is the WORLD record holder for the greatest temperature change in 24 hours: 103 degrees! It went from -54 to 49 in Loma, MT in one day. KNOWLEDGE BOMB

Lately I’m thinking…

Unless you were in the market for some Montana fun facts and crappy random stories about last July, this update probably wasn’t for you. But seriously those weather facts are crazy

Lately I’m thinking…

(stay with me here) It’s a really nice sunny day here and it got me thinking about golfing. Then I started thinking about that time I hit Nebel with a golf ball. In one of my favorite quotes ever, when I sent a text to Tanner telling him I hit Nebel, he replied, “It couldn’t have happened to a better person”

Currently reading…

This article from the Billings Gazette about a guy who drove his truck through a bar wall. Easily my favorite part is the last line where it says “police are still deciding if the driver should recieve a citation”! I mean, there’s got to be something illegal about plowing through a building wall right? Otherwise this could be a messy insurance claim, with one guy claiming the building shouldn’t have been standing there.

Currently watching…

How I Met Your Mother and The Bachelor – obvs. The bachelor really stresses me out, i can’t watch it unless i do something else at the same time to kind of distract me, like go on my computer, my phone, or just yell out random sentence fragments. Fun Fact: More people have been married by meeting someone on the biggest loser than they have on the bachelor.

This is really interesting…

Speaking of fun facts, Joey that’s a pretty good one that Elephants are the only animal that can’t jump. What I find even crazier about that is it means that Hippo’s CAN jump! Hippo’s are crazy. They kill more people in Africa than lions, elephants, leopards, buffaloes and rhinos combined. I’m hungry

The Soapbox:

I heard an ad for Pagliaci pizza on the radio yesterday and it was the same lady who tells you the specials when you call in and their operators are busy. She’s pretty good at talking pie
