With permission, I have taken this idea from another cult. I think it would be great here.

This is a thread to post what you are totally stoked on. Share with us your happiness.  :)

just got a keg of bozone select amber, and it's delicious. $155 a keg, but worth it. 5 pints in the last 2 hours, now going to bed after being awake for 28 hours, and climbing OUTSIDE tomorrow since it's supposed to be nice. stoked

Are kegs really worth it? I forget how much I paid for mine a lonnggg time ago, but I know I did the drunken math for a friend, and we'd decided that pouring 40's into a bathtub would be more economically friendly...

Neways, stoked that Mr. Beaudoin hooked me up with a shibby bottle of wine...which I'm drinking alone after work at 2:33 a.m....working nightshift sucks =(

yea, but then you're still drinking steel reserve out of a bathtub.

we figured for a keg of PBR vs. buying cases of PBR, we save $40 for the same amount of beer

so in keg form it's pretty much "buy 5 cases, get 2 cases free"

So I have a lesbian girlfriend now.  And my friends have started affectionately referring to me as "the converter."  The camera was also out last night, so there may be some interesting photos of me circulating the internet soon....but for now, here is a good one of a few friends.

Funny he should have mentioned quickness, he ran up the bootpacks with me huffing and puffing along behind.

Really fun day, and we got a bunch of schwag for our efforts. Results were super tight, the whole podium was within 5 minutes. Next year, we buy extra jetpacks to add to our Wrock3tships.

i'm all high and forgot i came in here to actually report some stoke...

went to Paul Oakenfold's Perfecto at Rain last night with Lena after some sushi (orgasm)... Lena and i lasted until about 1am or so, before Paul even came on. i'm looking forward to the next time i have a room on the Strip, so i can run her back to the room, do our thing, then run back to the club to see Paul's set. Perfecto was pretty sweet, we just got way too turned on, way too fast. such is life.

at least now i know another supersweetradtotallyawesomefuntime thing to do if someone wants to come to do some rollin in Vegas.

This is the real reason I'm stoked.

I picked it up CHEAP. I had to buy a 30D w/BG-E2 grip as well, but got it all for $1,450. I know have to sell the extra 30D, the grip, (probably keep the extra battery) and my 28-135, cause I can't afford to keep it all.

Next on the list, a 70-200 f/4. Woo!

Sick, you're going to love that lens!  The 70-200 f/4 is also really sweet, I have that one.  Why get rid of the grip?

Money is the main reason. 2nd reason is I don't need the extra battery power or vertical trigger-thing right now. It is also heavier. Mainly, it is a luxury I can't afford right now.

I wish all you east coasters were able to enjoy all the powder we are so used to here out west. I had the best runs of my season this weekend. Knee deep pow all day and not even close to being tracked out. That's the sick thing about the mountains hidden away;.

FINALLY got my brake situation sorted for my Caylors so I don't have to use leashes anymore. Now I can go ski that stuff Rowen's so happy about... friend coming out of DOA on blackcomb today advertised it as legitimately more than waist deep. Pow days have finally arrived!

So my school next year will hopefully cost me MUCH less than this current years.

Just did my financial aid application. I was able to file independently this year instead of under my parents. It resulted in a significant reduction of income. (Not that my parents supported me at ALL before, the govy is retarded)

The "expected family contribution" amount was $20k less. Which means I should get some love in the form of grants and other things.

Haha I dont even know where to post this. Anywhooo my best friend is on the board of her condo association and she sent me an email that someone else in the building had sent to her...subject line: "umm was this you and ajay?"

Read on:

Hey,
I'm about to go down and put the check under your mat so it should be there by the time you read this.
FYI - one thing I wanted to pass along regarding the door/lock repairs security issues that were talked about with doors not closing and Jack running off those guys a while back.  The other night, I think it was last Thursday night/Friday morning, out buzzer went off at about 2:30 am and woke me up.  When I went and said "what?" or something like that (I had just woken up) whoever it was said something like "BLEAAAGGHHHUHHHHGUHHHH" (clearly shitfaced).  So I said something like "get lost" and a minute later they leaned on the buzzer for a loooong time.  So I went back and cussed them out or something and heard another ""BLEAAAGGHHHUHHHHGUHHHH" back and then I yelled something about calling the cops and I didn't hear anything else.  I almost went downstairs with my baseball bat but why go looking for trouble.  Anyway, I'm not really concerned with the bums from under the railroad bridge coming up and murdering my family in our sleep, BUT I think it's just another example of why we need to make sure the doors are secure and I can only imagine that if some people here had this happen to them they would be freaking out.
OK, thanks for reading!  Have a good one!
