This post saddens me somewhat.  While I’m short of one of those people who refers to their pets as their “children” I am still spending time writing about cats.  Hopefully this isn’t the apex of my stay in the blogosphere.  On the other hand, maybe it’s a good thing if this is the beginning of [...]

Woofs

Stoked to hear there are woofs where I ride.  Probably will spend the weekend riding the foothills using a lamb shank as my seat cushion.  I’m currently in a wind tunnel designing a helmet whose air turbulence causes the high pitched whine of a dying coyote.  My first assumption was that this was the a [...]

For the life of me I can’t understand why anyone would ever go with a 4.7.

It’s May, the birds are chirping, flower are bloomin, and it’s time to go skiing this morning.  On the snow by 8 I toured up a ridge.  A veritable ghost-town.  No other cars on the highway and no snowmobiles to be heard.  I had the mountains to myself.  About 200 yards up the hill I [...]

This ad came up when I was on Weather.com.  How can this guy refinance when he doesn’t even have the luxury of a shirt or personal grooming skills?  Besides, how can you refinance a cave?

….then take out a PayDay loan and bribe the longshoremen to give you another ship.  I think that’s how the old time saying goes.  Times are tough.  So tough in fact that I ‘ve decided to turn my empty dinner place setting into useful tools to actually put food on the table.  My first attempt [...]

No I’m not talking about lining my roof with 50K in solar panels so I can save 1k a year in power.  I’m setting out on foot and leaving this world behind…at least for 6 days.  Destination is wherever my machete guides me.  I’ll likely be battling apex predators atop granite cliffs while a storm [...]

In my time I’ve bought and sold a few things via Craigslist.  There’s no doubt it’s the best way to buy and sell used goods and…er services.  For the record I’ve never bought or sold “services” off Craigslist.   Back to the goods.  With going to a strangers house or having them come to yours, [...]

Like most Americans I buy random crap on a whim from time to time.  Actually, I once heard of a guy paying a fortune for a pallet of refurbished computer speakers.  What a douche.  Anyways, I purchased an Aviva Fishing Buddy (AFB) a while back.  Not sure why as a 27 year old alpha male, [...]

Blago absolutely killed it this morning!  He has the uncanny ability to skirt questions and elaborate on the benny’s of another topic.  And his wife seems like she fell of the same tree as Rod.  This is evidence enough for me to debunk the myth that opposites attract.  I’ve said it once and I’ll say [...]

In a fishing book I once read that the Southeast Arm of Lake Yellowstone was the most remote place in the Lower 48, aka paradise.  My mind instantly filled with images of apex predators establishing dominance by means of maximum carnage.  As I close my eyes I see, Grizzlies Greco Roman wrestling over a 1,000 [...]

Deforestation

From time to time rogue branches lead to my arborist skills being called upon.  Beigedown sent the word of such outlaw limbs.  I grabbed my 24″ Stihl and handsaw, then hopped on my bike headed to the LZ.  In the end, these limbs were too much for the audacity of the 24″ Stihl.  And even [...]

I received some great news today.  Rod Blagojevich was indicted on 19 charges . If you don’t know who Blago is, he’s the epitome of politician.  He is accused of trying to sell Obama’s senate seat in Illinois.  As evidence piled up against him and he was being grilled like a sirloin he dodged questions [...]
