July 02, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

Please allow me to shake some words out of my head and into yours. As you all may or may not know, I recently returned to my childhood home of Evergreen Colorado to attend what I was presuming to be a train wreck of a 20th high school reunion, and just before I left I got some words of wisdom from this fellow;

First up, there is a little project I've been thinking about called 'the anatomy of a commute'.

"Ladeez & Gentlemen,
doff your chapeau(s) in honor of America's Top Second Banana, Ed McMahon, who passed away today at age 86. That Budweiser blazer blows Stevil & mine's Budweiser sweater out of the water. HEY-OHHHHHHHHH!"

Before I get up and out...

June 22, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

The content of this post has almost nothing to do with popped corn.

June 19, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

In an attempt to maintain a relatively efficient posting schedule I have to write during all of hours of free time, but occasionally sometimes the free time is taken up with more important matters, such as these fellows;

Heaving sighs, telling lies and making artistic alibies.

June 17, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

These days I'm finding myself further and further towards the end of my proverbial rope, so for today's post, I will rely on the mail bag to do most of the work, because by and large I'm pretty much out of gas.
Right out of the gate though, I'll drop this bit, which defies any introduction or explanation;

The Butterfly Effect

When a group of dirtbags get together on one side of the planet, is it possible that it could cause a tidal wave on the other?

Some stuff about some things.

June 02, 2009 by Stevil on walkabout

Go here to take the first step. It should also be noted that these bottles are in fact BPA, DEHA, and DEHP free. This is a good thing, cause all those initials mean badness gets in the way of the goodness.

Secondly, there has been a car crash of sorts within the ins and outs of the Soulcraft Bicycles database on account of a good bit of folk's information therein is outdated, duplicated, or what have you.

And here we are once again at the true business end of the week.

May 28, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

Seeing as I've still yet to unpack my bags from last weekend, and got swamped by a pretty busy work week to boot, I am opting to keep this one brief, but before we move on to important matters, I'd like to take the opportunity to wish How To Avoid The Bummer Life a very happy third birthday.

"Good things happen to those who procrastinate."

These words were uttered by Friendly Paul as we stood on the top of the world this past weekend when discussing how we had talked about doing this trip for the past three years.

Who Rides The Tiger?

May 13, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

I forgot. Maybe it was Elton John.
Anyway, the Loudness from Long Beach are back in our realm and will be playing at Thee Parkside Thursday night in conjunction with Naked Rob's dirty forty. A party for a guy named Naked Rob? How can you go wrong?
Don't forget your ear plugs.
And your pants.

Wednesday is a cool breeze.

May 12, 2009 by Stevil Kinevil

I'm so excited to start this post, I haven't even taken off my stretchy pants and tap shoes that I was just wearing whilst speed cycling.
So you all are familiar with Uma, right? She is the one who I referred to as the fancy big sister of this clan of the damned that spends time at the soda shoppe with her friends, while CFO is left playing with himself in the attic.
Oh, you missed that post?
Well, it was a good one.
