And yes, I looked back through Pay Pal, and the address didn't match any that I've shipped to, so if this is you, get in touch. Operators are standing by.

As long as we're on the subject of coozies, I just placed an order for new ones with a new company on the recommendation of my friends from Red Fang. If anybody knows what's what in the realm of coozie technology, I'd bet it would be those guys.

.. Not that their beer stays in the can long enough to warm up, mind you..

Up next is a hot one that I've been sitting on, and it is such a live wire, it just can't sit any longer-
Christian Retardicans sure can write some good satire.

And one more random note..
Have you seen this man?

I think he may very well have been my middle school science teacher.

As you can probably imagine, with my recent blablablaing about personal matters, compounded with being out of town, the mail bag is ridiculously close to bursting at the seams, so without further hesitation, let's see what's going on out there in the world.

First up we will run down a short list of October events.
First for the peeps in Nordak;

The Gambler, huh? I feel as if the bearded individual depicted has a greater resemblance to Bob Seger than it does to Kenny Rogers.
And for those who are of the opinion that Bob Seger is a douche, take a listen to this.
It might change your stance;

It's as an appropriate declaration now as it was during the Vietnam conflict, when it was originally written..

Then we have this one happening in Misery;

I probably had more information about it at some point, but it's been a rough couple of weeks.

This next hodown in Nevada would appear to be about two things I'm quite intimate with, featuring a poster designed by the hugely talented Ron Rash;

Then there is the much anticipated Crunk Cross event in Portland East.. Er.. I mean Minneapolis;

And finally, this one which promises to be another train wreck;

Boners I be poppin', and knowledge I be droppin'.

I don't know how much more fun my body can handle.

Neil sent this clip about how seriously serious folks can effect some serious change. Seriously.

Boulder Bike Story from Bikes Belong on Vimeo.

You know, I bust the balls of Boulder with frequency, and a few of those who reside therein, but I also have to give props where they are due, and I realize with complete clarity that within their community there are an awful lot of hard working and tirelessly committed individuals who have sacrificed epic amounts of time and energy to build the infrastructure that exists there today. What has developed in Boulder over the last two decades should serve as inspiration to all of the rest of us as to what is possible.

Please Bouderites, don't let the tongue that rests so frequently in my cheek poke you in the eye.
I tease, because I love.
Sorta.

As I mentioned on Monday's post, I spoke with the cool cats at Voler clothing about the AHTBM kits, so with that being said, I have no idea how Cary already caught wind of what I was planning;

That guy has feelers everywhere.

And while we're on the topic of stretchy pants, reader Jake contacted me with a request for Gary, pictured below, to make contact so that he can figure out how to procure one of these little numbers;

In a perfect world, that is all any of us would wear.
Except of course when we were at church, which is where we'd don our Sunday's best;

Holy hell, I have poured my heart out in this one, and I've barely scratched the surface.
I think the best bet is for me to just delete every email in my inbox and start from scratch.

I spoke with John from Stroker Ace Screenprinting on Monday, and the shirts will be coming shortly. If you'd like a preview, then you prolly oughts sit down, and take a drink, cause they are awesome. The first was put together by my homie Brado, and features the popular 'Downzig' skull on the front, with the 'Black out with your sack out' tag line on the back;

And the next one is from the skilled hand of Robert from Bunnyhawk Studios;

Sit tight, cause when I have them in hand, you can bet I will be shouting about it from every available rooftop.

So that's it for today.

Now I gotta get back to attempting to find my ass with both hands, which these days seems to be am increasingly tall order.
