Shout out to…

The new Reader of the Week…..Brice!! Brice is a Montana State grad and Seeley Lake local who’s cabin is next door to Tanner’s, which is obviously a disaster considering he makes the same kind of bad decisions as Tanner. Last year I put 17 snake bites on his tab and he didn’t even get one – guess I should have put 18 on his tab? Anyway it should pretty much even out as you win a free cocktail for being selected this week, which I’ll have to pay you next 4th of July I imagine, so don’t forget. Click here for a bonus brice video

Shout out to…

Everyone who showed up for karaoke last night, especially to the early birds Steph, Skeelo, and Morgan. In fact, they were the only 3 there when it started, so I was a little concerned, especially when we couldn’t get the machine to work. Skeelo belted out some classics though to get the place started. By the end of the night it filled up and we had to start refusing songs at midnight – oh and I had an awesome time. Hopefully we got the reporter drunk enough that he was convinced he was having an awesome time too.

This is really interesting…

On a side note, between Steph’s tab and my cab fare this karaoke “job” is doing the opposite of making money

This is really interesting…

Mariners-yankees game tonight with an 88 degree forecast – yes please. The yankees are good. The mariners are bad. We’re probably going to trade cliff lee to them today too. He should probably just wear neutral colors and then whatever dugout he’s told to report to he can just borrow a hat or something.

The Soapbox:

Have a fun and safe weekend everybody!! Seeley the Dog comes home this weekend after a week in Portland!

Lately I’m thinking…

Hey what do you know it’s ‘Worst Update of the Week Wednesday’! This picture made me chuckle for a couple reasons. The motorcycles in the background, making Joey look especially ridiculous for being on a bicycle trying to tow a car. And then the fact the car says “car ramrod” and for some reason “dirty south” on the side – was that because we lived in south side bozeman? That direction always seemed like north to me. On a side note – the B Unit and it’s rims look especially polished up

Currently reading…

This is a pretty good article about Jake Locker in the New York Times.  Speaking of, I’m thinking about going to the practice on Saturday – anybody want to go?

Currently watching…

The clock – going to the mariners game tonight. I’m also watching the windows hoping it gets a little bit nicer today.

This is really interesting…

Well we’ve spent the last 3 days watching episodes of weeds on the wii…that’s pretty much it. So I asked steph what she thought about getting rid of cable for the summer, to which she replied “That’s for people that think they’re cool but really they’re not”. Uh okay. Anyways I think we’re going to do it.

The Soapbox:

Tanner, that’s the gift that keeps on giving throughout the entire year.

I just had one of the 5 best iced grande chais of my life this morning so I’m pretty hyper. Hype Hype Hooray….ho….hey….ho. On a side note I rode Nebel’s unicycle at perkins place once……once

Lately I’m thinking…

Well Mariners opening day was a success….for everyone besides the mariners. They had 2 hits on the day but honestly it felt more like 0. We should get Albert Pujols, he’s good. The Mariners have 3 home runs and 19 RBIs this year – albert has 5 and 14. Lock it up Jacky Z!

Currently watching…

Did you guys see this video of Jon Brockman dunking in practice??. Both guys are making it look pretty easy. I don’t even remember Brockman dunking in college, he would just get the ball down low, go around his guy and….lay it up. Not even a backboard slap

Shout out to…

Joey – that’s a great joke today, I copied it to the soapbox below. Oh and by the way, when are you going to tell us what the three thruths were? Our friendship is basically on the line. Thanks!

Q: What is Irish and begins to come out in the spring?….. A: Patty O’Furniture!

The twins are having their home opener right now at brand new “target field”. I’m not even kidding, sitting in the front row right behind home plate is a DOG with a target symbol around his left eye. Great seats, that’s a lucky dog (get it). Speaking of dogs (nice transition) here’s a picture of seeley sleeping on my shoulder

This is really interesting…

The good news I bought new skis today. The bad news is I had to pay for them with money. The other bad news is it was kind of anti-climatic because I can’t pick them up until this weekend. The other bad news is it’s even more anti-climatic because I can’t use them until next year…but I’m still really excited!

This is really interesting…

I’ve heard “bad romance” by lady gaga about 30 times on the radio, and everytime I’ve cranked up the volume pretty loud. I just realized today though that everytime I do that, the back window is usually open for seeley.

This is really interesting…

You can now stream instant netflix movies through a wii! THAT IS AWESOME

The Soapbox:

Opening day at Safeco! Only 1 more hour to go. Tanner I agree, I’ve never rooted for Phil before but listening talk about his wife and kids the whole time after Tiger’s whole deal changed my mind – that shot through the trees was big time too. Nebed thanks for the update (I sometimes mix up ‘d’ and ‘l’)

Lately I’m thinking…

I’m not sure what’s going on here – I think joey is “arresting” me or something. I’m also not sure how much this picture has to do with baseball besides the fact it’s at the stadium, but I’m counting it.

This is really interesting…

Well after a quick start out of the game the Mariners are suddenly just a .500 baseball team. Speaking of the Mariners, who wants to catch a game this year – Joey? Jakers? Mitch? Mikey? Tanner? Nebel? okay I think you get the point. Yankees, white sox or red sox in July? Royals in August? Maybe a double dose of rangers and UW-huskers game in September? Okay i’m getting carried away

This is really interesting…

I don’t usually look at Seattle weather on my iPhone until summer because it’s just the same rain image 6 times in a row, but today i decided to check it out anyway hoping for some more unseasonably warm weather we’ve had lately. Wow – 57 and sunny today and 65 and sunny tomorrow! I got super excited, thought about which T-shirt to wear and told steph – she didn’t believe me though. So I bet her a dollar, shook her hand on it and then handed over the phone to celebrate my victory. She then flipped the screen from ‘Billings’ to ‘Seattle’, called me an idiot and asked for her dollar. cripes!!

Currently watching…

This youtube video of a girl after getting her wisdom teeth out. It’s along the same lines as ‘david at the dentist’ but still made me laugh, you need sound though. Speaking of unicorns, we met a guy last week quit his job and was writing a book….about unicorns. ya he was crazy, but wanted to “bring them back”.

The Soapbox:

CATS!

Lately I’m thinking…

I couldn’t bring myself to put up any party pictures from the last 9 days, i think it’s still too soon. So instead i’ll include this nice picture of a pony

Currently reading…

( & listening to) this little blog post about the mariners announcers making a crazy prediction about a player (tuiasosopo – these guys are everywhere) getting his first home run of the year. check it out – good stuff

Currently watching…

“Chimps on the Edge” I saw some of it on Saturday, but watched the whole thing last night with steph on the discovery channel “explorer show” . I don’t know if I have any credibility, but it was a super interesting show

This is really interesting…

Homecoming is in less than 2 weeks – HAHAHHAHAH…..oh goodness gracious are you serious?

The Soapbox:

Skeelo – it was definitely not my idea to put all my pez dispensers in your dresser drawers. Okay, i’m glad we had that talk.
