New Blog

Pete started a new blog called M.O.R.B.I.D.mtb so check it out.

I Win...

It's that time of year that every person dreads if you work in a corporate environment. The pressure, the guilt, the millions of worthless e-mails in your inbox, yes it's (dum dum dummmm...) United Way week or in Best Buy's case 3 weeks. This year I am one of the United Way captains so I'm the one that gets to send out the million e-mails. Yesterday and today we had a casino event where if you donate $15 bucks you get $3k in funny money. I headed over to the craps table and 2 hours later I was up to $62k!! For every $1k you get a raffle ticket so you do the math. I ended up leaving with an Insignia 10.2" portable DVD player (sweet). This little puppy will be nice for the Moab trip next week. Today again I started out with $3k and ended up with $75k which got me a Rocketfish Universal Wireless Rear Speaker Kit which is for sale for $60 because I already own one.

White Anxiety

I'm pretty bummed today as The White Stripes have canceled their tour do to Meg White suffering from acute anxiety and is unable to travel. I was so excited to get the opportunity to see them live! Now I have to call up ticketbastard and get my refund. Aimee and I might still go to Chicago to visit my parents and help clean up grandpa's house.

Biking

Pete, Aimee and I went to Murphy-Hanrehan for a bike ride tonight. We all had a great time! It was starting to get a little chilly enjoying some Oktoberfest after the ride. Tomorrow Pete & I are going to Harmon Park for a night ride. As always everyone is welcome to come along. You can find out the details on the forum.

What I Am Listening To

Andrew Bird - Weather Systems

Excellent album, don't leave home without it.

What I Have Been Drinking

New Belgium Skinny Dip is wicked tasty on a hot summer day. It also comes in handy to sooth the pain after a crash on the mtn bike trail.

Mini Metro Adventure

Aimee and I went on a mini metro adventure today. This place is south of the river and east of 52. Do you know where this is?

Ride The Log

Pete, Aimee & I went out to Murphy-Hanrehan yesterday to do some mountain biking. One thing that I am proud to say I have accomplished was the log ride towards the end of the trail. After 10 or so attempts I finally rode the log to the end. Pete also was able to git-r-done! Air 5!

Here is a picture of what the log ride looks like.

Here's a picture of one of my many attempts.

Lesson learned today, you just don't know how hard an obstacle is until your try it. Failure is just the first step to success.
