Fishing Season Has Begun

It's official, the fishing season has begun. Yep, my license has been purchased and on Saturday I christened the new fishing year by catching my first fish. The fish was caught using my favorite lure, The Mill Hollow Special, combined with the Powerbait technique. He wasn't a huge fish, but he was a fish. Not just a fish, but the first fish of the year. It was awesome to finally be back outdoors and fishing again. I have created another post, Fishing Tracker, so you can stay up on my fishing adventures. Hope you enjoy it.

In other news, I went to Wendover this weekend. This was one of my best trips to date. 'Lipe and I took off at about 6:30 or so on Friday night. We both started out with Texas Holdem. I got my usual crappy play and lost about $35, total to date $70. 'Lipe finished up about $100 or so, if I remember correctly. He got awesome hands and even one with the job interview tweezers, suited two - three. After Poker we ventured out and played some Pai Gow. We both did pretty good at Pai Gow and I think I got back to about $20. I started with $50 for the night. We then went to convince our other friend; we will call him Bob, to come hang out with us at the bar. NO, I still do not drink, but 'Lipe was quick to indulge. This is where the night took a turn for the worst. We played the most evil slot machine game ever, Leopard Spots. This game makes me cringe just thinking about it. I hate this game, but it is so addictive. Fun little animal pictures bonus spins and our constant chanting of "Spots, Spots". Please if you see me play Leopard Spots again, slap me. We lost about $80 on this game over all. Mostly I helped 'Lipe lose his money, but we still lost a lot. Finally we pulled ourselves away from the bar, one of us was very, very drunk. Me and drunky Dan then headed back to the Pai Gow table. He could barely do anything beyond hold his cards, but he did not need to function, because I was their to back him up. Lady luck really made her appearance here. The very first Pai Gow hand 'Lipe got was a straight flush. A straight freaking flush! This is awesome because he bet five dollars on the fortune bet and this pays 50 to 1. He hit a $250 payout. It was incredible. He then played more games and ended up winning more money. He helped me get back to break even status by giving me some Pai Gow money to play with. I ended up winning $25 dollars and broke even for the night at $50. Where the real amazing luck happened was the Craps table. 'Lipe had never played craps in his life. We played the pass line for $10 a throw, and after about 20 minutes and probably 10 times of throwing the dice off the table, 'Lipe had made $100. It was great luck. After this last gambling string, we finally headed for home. We left at 6:30 am the next morning. I had been up for over 24 hours and was more than ready to get home. This was a freaking awesome time. I don't think I have had more fun in Wendover before.

Well that is all, check out my Fishing Tracker and luck be with you.

One Hundred And Fifty Dollars!!!

Yep, it was only $150. Less than what I paid for my first Play Station II. That's less than my MP3 CD player. Less than the new eyeglasses I just bought last night, very nice I must say. What was only $150 you ask? The mere margin that we missed getting the house we just bid on. $150!!! That’s all. The tiniest of amounts was all they out bid us by. This was the first house I was absolutely in love with. The first of the many houses, and we looked at a lot of houses, that I really liked. I was really sad, but then my awesome wife and great friends helped me see the light.

It just was not meant to be. You never take the first of anything you really like. Things happen for a reason. I really think we were not supposed to get this house, and I believe it. The next house we find we both will really like and it will be perfect.

I had anxieties about this house, because we were paying a little more than we originally had planned on. This is probably another reason we were not supposed to get the house. Long story short, the ongoing search for a place of residency continues. It will be a place to call our own, and live in peace and harmony. I will keep you posted hippies. Just keep your fingers crossed and send us a little extra luck.

Later

First attempt at audio blogging

Here is my first attempt at audio blogging. Again I am a sheep and I recognize this. This is no where as good as Mr. Me's first audio post, but I am only testing the waters. Tell me what you think. I know I have a horrible recorded voice, but you will have to deal with it until I can train my monkey to talk for me.

Report Out

Yo, long time no post huh? Yep, I haven’t got around to it, that’s all. Everything is kind of okay here, with the exception of my wife’s recent accident. Man the bad luck just keeps piling up on this one. Accident, injury, only one car, car-pooling, errors in my wife’s credit report, not being able to get a lower auto loan rate and the list goes on and on. This is causing lots of stress. I will continue to sing the blues until this is resolved and spring triumphantly kicks winters ass. I am so sick of SNOW!

In other news, They Might Be Giants has released a new kid’s album. I purchased it yesterday and it is great stuff, not that I was expecting less. If you have kids, are planning on having kids, or are a kid at heart you need to check this out. They also released a DVD to go along with the CD. These guys make learning fun! Click here to check out this new music.

My wife and I also had a great Valentines Day. This is the perfect holiday to warm you up on a cold winter day and help you get through the depression caused by the worst season of the year. I got a new watch and new shoes. I would have thought it was my birthday.

In case you have not heard, Mr. Me’s grandfather recently passed away. He may not be posting for a while and I did not want you to worry.

See you next time hippies.

Luck

Luck has not been on my side lately. It started this weekend with a little trip we took to Wendover. Wendover is just across the Utah border and into Nevada. Not a bad trip. Only about one and a half hours of the most boring stretch of salt flats and nothingness you could ever see. Anyway, that’s not why we are here. We are here to talk about luck. Yep, luck. Sometimes you have it and sometimes you don’t. I know a lot of you hippies don’t believe in luck and say stuff like, “There is no such thing as luck, you are either good or you are not” or “I create my own luck through practice and self discipline.” Blah, blah, blah, blah, BLAH!!! Life has so many twists, turns and nuances, that you cannot honestly believe there is no such thing as luck.

Enough about that, time for my lack of luck report. I was playing Texas Holdem for the first time at a limit table (the maximum raises are fixed, unlike no limit where you can bet it all if you want). My friends Dumas and ‘lipe accompanied me to the poker room and we were ready to win some money. They had schooled me in just about everything I needed to know for play in a real casino. What to watch out for, what rules I needed to follow and how to do pretty well when you are playing against a lot of people. I was doing very good to start out. I was disciplined on what hands I should play and when to play them (SKILL). I was also playing against some very loose players that also happened to be a little drunk (LUCK). I was losing more hands than I was winning, but the hands I did win were pretty big pots. The play continued through the wee hours of the morning, about three or four in the morning. I was up about $55 total, not bad for limit play and since I only started with $35. With a pretty big stack of $90 I was feeling proud of myself. It was about this time that my luck drastically changed. I started to get bored and tired (SKILL). This was the one thing that my friends forgot to warn me about and this little miss on their part, cost me in the long run (LUCK). When you get bored and tired you start playing more hands and are not as focused. I got taken to the cleaners and then went to bed. So, as you can see, skill does play a factor, but luck usually wins out. One lucky or unlucky turn can spell success or disaster.

Speaking of disaster, my beautiful wife was in a car accident yesterday (LUCK). She was rear ended by another guy who was talking on a cell phone and not paying attention. She is okay, but it messed up her car and she has some back soreness. Hopefully we will get enough money through the insurance to fix or buy her a new car (LUCK).

Well that is what happened to me over the last several days. See you later hippies and may luck and skill be with you.

Pho

Wow, what can I say? Where do I even begin? I just experienced one of the greatest culinary wonders of the world. Pho! Pronounced like “the” only with an “f” sound, like “fa”. It rhymes with "duh". This is one of the hardest foods to describe. It is a disservice to call it Vietnamese noodle soup, but that is what it is. It is noodles in beef or chicken stock. Simple right? Wrong. This food is like the crack of foods. One try and you will be addicted. The hard part is trying it. I went through this, trust me, it is not easy to muster the courage to eat soup with noodles in it and spend around $6 for it. My friends had been telling me about it for weeks. It is the best soup you will ever try. You have to try this soup. Let’s go get Pho. Why don’t you just try Pho? You can see now why I compared it to crack. The peer pressure was overwhelming. I am usually apt to try new things, so it was a wonder that it took me as long as it did to try this wonderful dish. I lost my Pho-ginity, as I like to call it, last night. I had the steak and brisket Pho. It is such a disservice to even say it like that. If you are ever with me, then I will happily take you to enjoy this experience, even if I have to drag you kicking and screaming. The broth, if you can call it that, is like liquid sex. Not kidding. It is like they sucked the soul out of a cow and mixed it into some water and added some herbs. This is not just eating noodle soup. The whole experience is a culinary and cultural experience. It is almost ritualistic if you will. This is the first time I have ever tried Vietnamese food and I love it. The sauces, the smells, and BROTH!!! I am going through withdrawals already and I have only tried it once. Trust me; this is the kind of food you will be going back for several times. If there was a Pho Nazi, I would be acting just like the characters in Seinfeld. Most notably, the part where Elaine has to sit down after first trying the soup; lets just say I was SO glad I was already sitting down. I have only had Pho at one restaurant, Pho Anh Dao (pretty sad when I can already pronounce this perfectly), but I have heard they are all over the valley. I will try them all soon. Wha, ha ha ha!!!!!! Well I got to go; I have to explain to my Playstation II that I have a new addiction.

If you want to learn more about Pho, here is some interesting reading material about the history of Pho. Pho, glorious, Pho! You cannot miss this masterpiece, I beg you, please try Pho.

Music That Doesn't Suck

Hey hippies, long time no see. I have been busy recently searching for the lost Mr. Me. We still do not know where he is and we are quickly losing hope.

In other news, I have been listening to some cool music lately. This is a lot of non-mainstream bands that I heard for the first time recently. Thanks to a good friend of mine at work and my friend ‘Lipe (Pronounced L – ee – P – ee) my musical awareness is ever increasing.

This post is going to be an ongoing tribute to non-mainstream bands that don’t suck. Check them out. Unless you are a cookie cutter, modern music, A-Tonal hippie, and I hope you are not; then you will like these bands. This post will be constantly updated with new bands as I remember them or hear about new ones. Enjoy hippies and remember to try something new and keep an open mind. You may learn something and learning is fun.

Here is the list:
Elliot Smith
Belle & Sebastian
Stephen Malkmus
Manowar (Crazy that I would ever like a hair band, but I did.)
Caroline's Spine


(If you have suggestions for bands that should be added, then please post a comment. The only requirements are that the band not be too mainstream and not suck. Use your judgement and I will have the final say.)

They Might Be Giants (TMBG) News

I just got a recent update on They Might Be Giants. They announced a February concert date in PA. I know this is a long way from UT, but I am hoping this means they will be going on a spring tour. I am crossing my fingers that this is the start of a tour. I love this band. Every time I listen to them they get better. They Might Be Giants have been pretty busy.

Happy New Year

Well hippies, 2004 has come and gone. For the most part it was an un-eventful year. We had two weddings and a funeral. Sorry for the bad movie reference, it is completely unintentional. Time seemed to pass by at rocket speed. I think the speed of time is in direct relation to ones age. I can’t remember any past years going by this quick. Maybe my memory is also in direct relation to my age. Any way, I consider this year overall a B- year. I didn’t really accomplish a whole lot and nothing extremely horrible, with exception of the passing of my Grandfather, happened this year. This accounts for the lower than a B, which I consider sub-par, grade for the year.

In an effort to improve on above noted grade, barring any uncontrollable bad luck or acts of God, I have composed the following list of New Year’s resolutions. I don’t normally do this sort of stuff, but there are a number of things I need to improve on and I heard somewhere that writing down goals and stuff will help you to stay focused and achieve them, or something like that. Feel free to help me in anyway you see fit to achieve these resolutions. I am humble enough to admit that I too need help. Especially with the following lofty goals:

1. Be a man of my word – Many of you have realized that I am slipping in this area. Someone much wiser than I said something like, “If you can’t count on a man’s word, then what can you count on?” I hate brushing people off and breaking plans. I don’t want to be a flake.
2. Be a better husband – This is a very big stretch goal and I left it very vague, because I have several areas to work on and they are too big to fit in this BLOG. I am not a particularly bad husband. No abuse, neglect, infidelity or anything major, but I can improve other areas that are causing a burden on my wife.
3. Video games come last – Hi, my name is Dr Worm, and I’m a video game addict. This is a very subtle addiction, but a very powerful one at the same time. Video games are taking over my life. The first step to fixing a problem is admitting you have one, and I definitely have one. I want to lock my PS2 away in a dark place where I can’t see or think about it. I am planning a 12 step program to free myself from this vice.
4. Improve my physical and mental health – This one goes along with number 3. Playing PS2 for several hours is in no way healthy for ones body or mind. I have a very poor short term memory and I am very absent minded. I have the memory loss, but don’t have the elicit drug experiences to blame it on. I am blaming it on an over-active mind, too many hours playing video games and a lack of challenging thought processes. I think my mind is bored. On the other side, my physical health is going down hill as well. I wouldn’t consider myself a particularly unhealthy person, but in no way is my lifestyle healthy. I am out of shape, lazy and am seeing my waist size slowly increase. My current living conditions are not conclusive to a particularly healthy lifestyle, but I can fix some things. Namely exercise level. Again, see number 3. If anyone knows a good personal trainer or exercise program, please let me know.
5. Be more organized and manage time more efficiently – I often forget that I have a PDA, let alone remember to use the damn thing. This is very sad. The effects of YKS (Youngest Kid Syndrome) are highly manifested in this area. If you can offer any support on how to improve these areas, please let me know.
6. Become more religious – This one is self explanatory. I have become to lost in the world and need to center myself.
7. Get a house – Yep, still looking.
8. Plan – See number 5. This is the same plea for help as the above mentioned resolution. I am terrible at planning and setting goals. HELP!
9. Don’t Procrastinate – Do you see a pattern here? Why do it today when I can do it tomorrow, that’s what I always say? HELP!
10. Be optimistic – This year, more than any in the past, I have noticed a change to my attitude. Normally I am a pretty laid back guy, but recently I have become much more negative and pessimistic. This is a must improve.

Whew!!! What a list. Several of these go hand in hand with others. I can knock out a few birds with one stone. Wish me luck and provide any support you can. I know I will need it. I will keep you posted on my progress. Hope your resolutions go well. Happy New Year hippies! Here’s to a new beginning.

Where is Mr. Me?

Help us find Mr. Me.



We interrupt your regularly scheduled post to bring you the following breaking news.

We have recently been told that my good buddy, Mr. Me, has come up missing. Please help me to find him. He is about six foot, give or take a few inches. He is very skinny and kind of sickly looking. He was last seen on 10/23/04 campaigning or something like that. Click here to view his last known whereabouts.

We are hoping that he is okay and did not disappear in some horrible campaign accident. If you have seen Mr. Me, please tell him to come back. There will not be any reward for any information contributing to the recovery of said missing individual. We are hoping you will help us out of the kindliness of your heart.

If you would like to help out in the search, please post any information about his whereabouts by clicking the “Comments” button after this post or on Mr. Me’s post for Saturday, October 23, 2004.

That is all. Stay tuned for additional updates.

Monday

Well, it’s Monday again and I am back to work. I don’t particularly hate Mondays. It’s a fresh start and I am a sick morning person, and Monday is like the morning time of the week. I am very tired though and coffee is my only friend right now. This week should not be too bad. My wife surprised me with a trip to long beach, Wednesday and Thursday. We will be flying there on Wednesday Morning. It is only a few days, wish it was longer, but it is still a trip. I love to fly. I could get on a plane and fly just for the fun of flying. The nostalgia of flying has never worn off for me. I am like a little kid and still enjoy every minute of it.

Christmas was still a success this year, even with the unfortunate events of the week before. Our family pulled together and it was a great holiday. My wife spoiled me, as always, and my attempts to spoil her were feeble in comparison. Oh well, it’s not how much you give or that you give anything at all. It’s the spending time together and loving each other that’s the important part. Love your family and remember them on Christmas. Love is not an expression of wealth or possessions; it’s an expression of time and thoughtfulness. You don’t need to spend a lot of money or any money. You just need to let people know you love them and care about them. It’s hard in the current state of our world to remember this, but our number one focus should be on the greatest gift to mankind. This gift is unconditional love.

Hope you had a happy holiday and remember to hug your loved ones.

Sorry for not posting anything these last few days. I know you have been waiting for more holiday cheer, but we have been low on that this year. My grandfather, Gordon Gilbert Brundle Sr., passed away this past weekend. We have been morning his loss this week and had the funeral yesterday. It was a very nice procession.

I will miss you pa. You were the hardest working man I have ever known. We all said you would work until the day you died and you did just that. My entire work ethic is taken from watching you. I will try and live my life more to the ideals that you taught us all: be honest and fair with everyone, enjoy what you do and treat everyone with respect.

We love you grandpa. I hope you are having fun building extensions on your house in heaven.

12 days until Christmas

Did I mention I love this time of year? It’s like for one month, or around that amount of time, people are happy and festive. They typically stop being mean and for a short time celebrate this peaceful time of year. It’s the only time of year you can hit a guy in the nuts and he will look up, while doubled over in pain, and with a festive look in his eye exclaim, “Merry Christmas, asshole!” OK, so that is an over exaggeration, but it is close to this example. Holiday shopping has not been too bad this year. I have been able to find parking with little to no parking lot brawling. I have got some good deals and will spoil my wife this year. It’s great. The evil winter gods have also looked down on me in this time of cheer. NO SNOW! Yep, not happening and hopefully, knocking on all available wood, it will not until at least Christmas day. This is the one day that snow is exempt from my typically ranting and all around hatefulness.

Anyway, grab a cup of wassail and get your candy-cane ass out and do some caroling. It’s Christmas time.

Christmas Update

I am approximately 95% finished with Christmas shopping. I can’t wait for Christmas. This is my favorite holiday. I love the atmosphere and holiday cheer. Yeah, there are some holiday negatives, but for the most part all is good with the world around Christmas. I can even tolerate snow, for the most part. Yep, it is the most wonderful time of the year, as was accurately captured in song. We sang Christmas carols last night while traveling home from a Christmas party. I love Christmas. I am hopping that as many of my family as is possible will be in town for Christmas. I know a lot of them already came for Thanksgiving and will not be able to make it, but holidays are a lot better when spent with family.

If you are wondering what to get me for Christmas, don’t be afraid to be a last minute shopper. Return of the King (extended version) comes out on 12/14/04 and The Simpsons (season 5) comes out on 12/21/04. This gives you plenty of time to buy and wrap these great gifts. Hint, hint. I am easy to please, so don’t feel pressured to get these for me. I would be happy with just spending time with my family and don’t really care if you get me anything or not.

15 days to Christmas!!!

I LOVE THE WINTER!!!

Yippeeee!!! Winter is finally here. I am so happy I can barely stand up.

SLAP, SLAP, SLAP!!! Thanks, I needed that. I HATE WINTER! It is so cold that I have to fight polar bears for my own blankets. It is so cold that spiders were ice skating in my shower this morning. It is so cold it makes the Chief’s defense look hot. It is so cold that I can’t move my fingers enough to post something on my BLOG. Yep, it is the worst season of all and a slow spiraling depression that won’t end until after January rolls over and dies. Spring please come sooner rather than later.

Anyway, time to catch you up on things. Thanksgiving was a great success. I ate and ate and then ate again. I love a holiday were gluttony is encouraged. Two thanks giving dinners in the space of a few hours. I am such a pig. Every member of my immediate and extended family was in state for this joyous occasion. It was awesome to see everyone again. We took a great family photo, thanks to the fantastic skills of Mr. Me, and everyone, but a few missing family members, were captured on film. We also got to see our long lost, but recently found, fantastic friend, Baren. We got a great photo, again thanks to Mr. Me, of all the old crew. I almost forgot Black Friday. It was another great shopping year and we survived the most hectic shopping day of the year. We got some great deals and showed off our mad shopping skills. It was great, except for the freaking cold. Can’t complain too much, because this year was mild compared to last year.

The one good thing about the weather getting cold, which is until stupid, black hole, evil and worst month ever, January, gets here, is that we have the holidays. I cannot wait until Christmas. I love the holidays and the gift giving.

Well, I got to go. The penguins are making popsicles out of my raspberry ice tea again. See you soon snow hippies!

I Am Not President

Well, it looks like I am not the next president. Turns out I really was part of the mushroom scandal. It didn’t take people too long to figure out who took the pictures. Oh and the video of me running down the street in my underwear screaming “Who stole my Froot Loops!” didn’t help either. Oh well. As I learned from the ever insightful South Park, it doesn’t matter who you vote for, you’re going to get a turd sandwich or a giant douche anyway. I guess I should start preparing my self for war. I am still well below the age to not get drafted and we are going to need more soldiers eventually. Bush is just stupid enough to reinstate the draft and take us all down with him. I would gladly serve and fight for my country, but fight in a meaningless war is another thing. I’m no patriot, but I love this country and would do whatever it takes to defend it, but only from a clear enemy and for good cause.

Enough with the America rant. What have I been up too? Nothing really, we are just continuing the never ending search for a house. We either find the house we like, but it’s the wrong location. We find the right location, but then the house is all wrong. We are about to give our real estate agent a heart attack, but hey that’s what they get paid for. It will all come together, I hope. Other than that, I’m just staying alive and working. Arrrrgggg….work!!! It is the busiest time of the year for me. Open Enrollment! I loathe this word. Every question under the sun people could ever ask about their benefits and how to change them. Add on the fact that no one ever wants to do anything for themselves and you have a rough picture of the horror that is my job. The good thing is that it only lasts three weeks. The bad thing is I work lots of hours and am very busy.

On a lighter note, I watched the new Star Wars trailer on Friday. Man it was awesome. I got goose-bumps just watching it. “Lord Vader” “Yes, My Master” “Rise…..” This is going to be my new favorite line from all the movies. My wife, much to my personal protest, bought me Star Wars Battlefront. I didn’t want her to get it for me, because I new how much time I would waste playing it. She is an awesome wife though, and bought it for me anyway. I had lots of fun wasting away a Saturday systematically destroying the rebellion with an army of imperial troops.

Well that is about all I can remember from the last few weeks. I will see you hippies later.
