TEA Party

On the heels of my “Everyone Poops” posts I doubt this will sound credible.  But then again I am talking about shit again….as in the shitty job the government has handled our rights and spent our money.  I attended the Boise TEA Party this afternoon.  What I witnessed was a boisterous crowd who has had enough [...]

Hot Tottie

No, I’m not talking about Reese Witherspoon.  I’m referring to the liquid that will fuel my being this winter.  If you’re prone to sore throats, have a weak vertical leap, malfunction in social situations, or are 1-2 months delinquent on your mortgage, I highly recommend a hot tottie.  After all, they say a hot tottie [...]

82 days to Musicfest 2009.  6 days of shoulder deep pow, gnarly tunes, doing what you do, aspens, Clydesdale’s, and many other debaucheries.  Last year saw Mini Me laying down the law.  Kitts performing a flying squirrel down a fresh chute to perfection.  Unconfirmed reports of someone getting jacked so hard in the face his [...]

Shred the Couch Brah!!!!

In anticipation of ski season I am sitting on the couch and thinking about exercices I should be doing to get ready to rip the crud.  Here’s an example of an easy exercise to do, single leg squats.  Ok back to my Coors Light and Office DVD.
