The makings of a fantastic superbowl sunday.

Xmas eve with the Dimas Family, sleep tight little guy...

2007-12-29T12:32:00.000-07:00

We wanted to make sure there was no way that my nephew RJ would be able to wake up in the middle of the night and catch Santa in the act, so, we made him chug a little Sleeping Dog Stout from Chama River Brewing Company. (this is all a hoax, there were no brain cells harmed in the making of this blog posting...)

No way i can give this a title so just watch and enjoy!

Glonnie Road Show Reunion Tour?

2007-11-25T22:52:00.000-07:00

Just before Rod and his band "The Old Main" took the stage Friday night at Burts, we squeezed in a quick photo of the three original members of "The Glonnie Road Show". Laying the ground work for a reunion tour.

Dancin Queen

My friend Pablo showing off the new dance he invented while at Burts Tiki Lounge to see The Old Main. He gave his new dance a name, if you cant hear him in the clip, i'll just let you take a guess at what its called. Here's a hint, reading material could be all he's missing.

The biggest shopping day of the year

2007-11-19T03:26:00.000-07:00

I know its late, but my mind is racing and has been for hours. The strangest thing about it is that of all thats swirling in my head, i cant seem to fish out one single idea, topic, mood or opinion. If i can just slow it down for a minute or two, i may be able to tell you a story, or give some advice on things to do when your mind wont let you sleep and not even your pen or your guitar can tell you why. If i could hit the pause button, i might be able to pick and choose from the hundreds of things bouncing off the walls of my head but as it is, my mind is like a Super Wal Mart and my thoughts are like the many crazed shoppers crowding its aisles the day after Thanksgiving. I wish somebody would call in a bomb threat so i can close its doors and send them all home for just a couple of hours. Bomb Threat, if i were a drug company, thats the name i would give to my sleeping pills and they would be sold at convenient stores. You would find them in little packets of two right next to all the energy drinks like "Rock Star", "Hype" and, (i just came across this one..hehe) "Game Juice". Yup, you'd walk in to Walgreens and right there next to the "Liquid Blow Power Pop" you'd find yourself some "Bomb Threat". Anyways thats a dumb idea but its all i've got right now and im finding it a little funny. Energy drink names are funny too. I think everybody who reads this should submit their idea for an energy drink and since nobody reads this crap i'll just submit one myself..... "Jabber Juice". So delirious..must sleep..... Well, time to try and put an end to the biggest shopping day of the year going on in my head, work is sounding less and less fun the longer i stay awake. Wish me luck!

This little piggy went, wee wee wee, all the way home

early rising and dog poop

2007-10-26T22:18:00.000-06:00

I wake up most mornings really close to being late for work and wishing that i could wake up just a little bit earlier so I can sit around for a while and enjoy a cup of coffee in the comfort of my own, quiet, dusty, sometimes lonely, one bedroom apartment. But i dont so i rush to let the dogs out, put on some suitable shower tunes, jump in the shower, cleanse myself of yesterday's filth and prepare myself for todays. I then scurry through the house in the buff forgetting that i have great big windows and didnt pull the shades down the night before and then nano seconds after remembering that, i realize i do not care. I feed the dogs and run back to the bedroom to pick out the cleanest pair of dirty jeans that are available, (Sorry Mr Kristoferson), and find the least wrinkled shirt to go with them. Once im dressed, everthing else is breeze, just sit at my computer, spend a just a little too much time on the web, look up at the clock, SHIT! late again. Now i have to stay at work later than everybody else. Now to my point. I bring the dogs in the house and run down to get in my truck to head to work but first, dog poop. two dogs, two piles. and how do they know? Why do they know? One poops right in front my neighbors car door and the other right in front of the entrance to his yard. They totally know that he doesnt like them so they try to make his journey from his front door to his car just a little bit more interesting. I try to get to it before his foot does but ya know, sometimes im just not that fast...

I buy "SOME" of my music

Look at this face....aggressive? No way! Right?

2007-10-21T08:57:00.000-06:00

Yup, this guy right here. Who'd a thunk, that this sweet "looking" handsome shchnauzer could ever hurt anything. Well folks. Its true. My dog Porter bit my neighbors girlfriend. Even broke the skin a little. Now i have to get interviewed by some animal services dude. Why Porter, WHY?!?!?

Fun is AWESOME!

2007-10-16T12:24:00.000-06:00

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
If fun was a nipple,
I'd want more than two...

Your turn!

off night

2007-10-13T10:21:00.000-06:00

Had bad night. Camera was dead and i didnt even get any footage what so ever of me puking in the alley behind falling rock. BOOOOOOO. Sorry!

Catching a little nap

2007-10-12T10:39:00.001-06:00

Well, it wasnt the couch at Falling Rock, it was my chair at the Denver Diner at 2am but day one as you can see was very successful. I really made a run at tasting every beer at the festival in one night, bad idea. Here in this pic I'm simply manging time as best i can. sneaking in a nap mid meal, talk about using my time wisely. Cant wait for tonights session, our team gets a little bigger tonight so the pics and stories should only get better. stay tuned.....

Falling Rock after the festival

Not sure who looks worse, MJ was battling Parkinsons Disease at this point, what's Pablos excuse?

Blasphemy or just plain funny?

2007-10-10T15:31:00.000-06:00

Yes thats Michael Angelo's "David" and yes thats
Shelby with what appears to be
a firm grip on his.. uh um... penis.
Sorry, we had to. We just had to. And no
there was no photoshop involved just pure skill for capturing the most inapropriate moments on camera.

White Privilege

2007-10-07T23:21:00.000-06:00

Ok, so. Some feedback is seriously in order here. My friend Michael is a hard working college student and recently has been tasked in one of his classes with answering this very tricky question and must do it with two pages worth the rambling. The question is; "How "should" white people view white privilege"? Followed up with; "How do they "realistically" view white privilge"? Hmmmmm. I'm going to have to sober up before I take a crack at this one but the rest of you, please, chime in ASAP, this paper is due Wednesday. Thank you and have a great day... :-)

The doc makes a house call in Gallup. Pretty gay glass but what can you say, my brother, he's trying. I guess if i'm going to ween him off the bud light, i should probably get him some decent beer glasses to drink out of.

My blog sucks

2007-10-03T23:21:00.000-06:00

Thats it. My blog is suckin tooooo bad. Time for some changes. From now on, expect to see more and hear less, laugh more and think less, drink more and care less. While you read this i'm cooking up a new format for this blog site and I'm doing it for you. ALL of you..... Fear not oh faithful 4, the time for less serious blogging is upon us. Nobody really wants to talk about it anyway, so lets just look at the cool stuff and laugh at the funny stuff.......................beer

They grow up soooo fast

2007-09-14T15:31:00.000-06:00

Porter, before he was too cool to play in the snow, (he'd kill me if he knew i was showing this pic), shhhhh.

New Shoes

2007-09-13T09:26:00.000-06:00

Was there anything cooler growing up than a new pair of shoes? Sure there were cool birthday presents, christmas presents and even the easter basket filled with peeps and hot pink bermuda shorts was pretty sweet. But "new shoes"... man, nothing like sliding on your new British Knights, walking down the street to a friends house and within a matter of minutes one of your friends have noticed "something" different about you. Your new shoes slip in and out of conversation for the next 3 days. You run faster, look better and even are a tiny bit taller. Life is just good! So, new shoes, one of those things in life that just stick out as being a damn good thing. Right up there with.......ooh, the last day of school and......................................................thats where you come in.

The new 20's

2007-09-09T10:47:00.000-06:00

It seems as if the more i say it the less i believe it. Are the thirty's really the new twenty's? Am I just tricking myself into believing that i'll be able to rock on forever. Either way, mentally and physically, i feel as young as i ever have. So as of today, (and i wont mention it again), The Thirty's are for sure the new Twenty's. Just like Thursday's the new Friday, Pink's the new Black all though im not going to really get behind that one. I know im missing more evidence that leads me to believe im one step ahead of life but i've only had one cup of coffee this morning, someone please feel free to help convince me that i could not have been born at a better time...

Hmmmm, could be ok... I think. What do you think?

It's blog its blog, its big its heavy its wood...

2007-09-05T21:13:00.000-06:00

My first blog of my new blog site. Im going to go with my first thought. ...........................Oh! there it is, LIFE, the greatest game of all. No not the board game with the cool 3-D board that got smashed up the first time you tried to fold it up and put it away. I'm talking about LIFE. When you're looking for ups, the downs come running and when the downs get tired, you get a short window to stock up on your ups. I guess its what we do with that window what really counts. I prefer to ponder it over a few tasty beers with some friends. Actually, its probably a good time really sit down and try to figure out the best way to approach this opportunity. Something I don't think I've ever done. As they say, there's a first time for most things..........
