Internet, I’ve been meaning to tell you a few things…

March 29th, 2007 by jb

Sometimes I take you for granted. Its not that I don’t realize all the things you do for me, its just that I work with you all day and by the time I get home at night I am tired and need some time away from you. Even the nights that I spend time with you after work, it is almost like I am with you but I’m not really there. Does that make sense? Regardless, tonight while we were together I paid extra attention to you and discovered some things that really made me realize how great you are:

One (Description: Skateboarding on Barriers, Metal, Satan, Skateboarding and more METAL!)

Two (WARNING: This one is a download, a big one. The idea of skateboard videos in HD make me feel like a little girl.)

Three (This might be the best of the bunch. I’ve been staring/listening in amazement for almost 30 minutes straight…)

I can see!

Seriously! Some of you may have already known, but yesterday I went in for Lasik eye surgury. It was something that I had been wanting to do for the last couple of years as my eyes were no longer capable of handling contact lenses for more than 2-4 hours a day.

Anyway, to make a long story short, yesterday I couldn’t see (well, you know) and today I can. Booyah.

I can’t stop.

Its just too easy to post radical youtube clips:

Oh yeah, thats Dan Drehobl again.

Ultimate Warrior was the best dude ever

I’m pretty sure theres a photo of me and Joey (not much) with our faces painted just like the Ultimate Warrior’s when we were like 10 years old. In case you didn’t know, he was the best wrestler ever.

I don’t intend for this blog to be a “post every funny youtube video clip I can find” site but some are just too good to pass up:

Weekend itinerary

Weekend itinerary:

Try to drag a couple of my co-workers to bar after work.

Rock some Zelda on the Wii.

Spraypaint my headphones black.

File taxes?

Steal some new music from the internet. My daily diet of Basement Jaxx all morning, Slayer all afternoon is (suprisingly) getting old. Any suggestions?

Wisconsin Humor

A guy walks into a bar, sits down, and asks, “Bartender, got any specials today?”

Bartender answers, “Yes, as a matter of fact we have a new drink, invented by a gynecologist patron of ours. It’s a mix of Pabst Blue Ribbon Beer and Smirnoff Vodka.”

The guy asks, “Good grief, what do you call that?”

The bartender replied, “A Pabst Smir.”

Top 3

One of my top 3 skate video parts ever. Dan Drehobl is a beast of a man:

San Diego is Radical. February is Not.

February 10th, 2007 by jb

My trip to San Diego went, for the most part, as planned. And by planned I mean I got there with no expectations other than drinking a few beerz (with a “z”. its cooler that way.) with the Navy Boi and smacking a round of golf or two. Another trip to the land of sun and hawesomeness may be in line for mid/late March.

February is draining me. Its been in the negative degrees for almost two weeks straight and spring still feels way too far away. Anyone else feeling the late-winter buzzkill?

Dick Vitale might be the most awesome sports announcer ever. If he released a spoken word album, I would undoubtedly buy it.

In case anyone didn’t notice, the Wisconsin Badgers basketball team is still ruling and is looking to be a serious threat in the NCAA tournament.

The SilentSnapper has what might be the best explanation of “hawesome” ever in his latest blog post. Its down in the comments.
