Not sure what to think of this. Kinda glad we let Boom Dizzle go after seeing this pile of crap:

More Pics from the 4th! (of July weekend)

We wanted to throw up some other cool pictures we snapped up in the Donner/Tahoe area over the 4th of July weekend. This pic was taken of us at our 9 person table at Sunnyside. Beers n' brunch, scrumptious.

This picture of Greg and Erica Hyland is radi-cool. Greg's reppin' the Fosters Premium Lager on the chairlift and Erica is showing her pearly whites.

We thought this snap was funny as heck. This is the Hyland family Chihuahua named Beanie wearing a beanie. And Erica never misses an opportunity to throw out peace to all her peeps.

After revisiting these pictures, we're looking forward to the next family vacation!

The Man Region

Cam says this is the reason why he doesn't ski (listen with sound):



"Oh the boys took a beating on that one."

Ninja Dance Party

Cam used to want to be a ninja when he grew up. Hence his infatuation with the Karate Kid I. So he was really happy to spot a video of ninjas out having a good time. Here is how ninjas dance when they go out to party.

Booty Slap Pie Face

We found this move to be simultaneously hilarious and mean. The angel and devil on our shoulders are both responding. Too bad the guy doing the smacking looks like a total douche.

This movie looks INCREDIBLE *

No, not the new Batman. But Step Brothers with Will Farrell and John C. Reilly. Check out the trailer:

And now check out a funky fresh deleted scene! Gosh, I love deleted scenes!

Snoop Gone Country

We've been fans of Snoop Dogg since day one when he burst onto the scene as Dr. Dre's sidekick on the "Deep Cover" soundtrack. Cat still listens to "187um" in the morning to get fired up for work. She thoroughly enjoys keeping it gangster.

But after I accepted the fact that Snoop's best album was Doggystyle, Calvin Broadus resurrected his career with this VH1 reality show "Fatherhood" about life with his family. The show's hilar, btw. Not only has the former University of Michigan basketball recruit nailed the reality TV show thing, he now has ventured into new genre's of music. We're talking crazier than Andre 3000 of Outkast. Snoop is going nuts! You hip hop heads may have been mythed by "Sensual Seduction" on his latest album "Ego Trippin" but this one takes the cake. Snoop wrote a tribute to Johnny Cash in a song called "My Medicine". Yup, you heard me right. Mr. Folsom County Blues himself:

Frankie The Dog

Hello everyone. Say "hi" to our new dog Frankie! We got the Frankster yesterday (Sunday, 7/13) from the San Francisco SPCA. We have been talking about getting a furry friend for some time and have found the perfect fuzzy fellow to teach not to poop on our hardwood floors. Woohooo!




Frankie is a 6 month old Terrier/Chihuahua mix who came from Salinas to the SFSPCA on July 9th. We had to jump on him quick since there was a lot of interest in Frank-Dog. We met him on Saturday afternoon and decided that we really wanted to get him. So we filled out the application, studied up on questions they might grill us on, and made it to the SFSPCA when it opened on Sunday morning. After a painless interview from a trainer, an instructional DVD and some paperwork we were off to PetCo to blow our first $200 on our new mutt.




As you can see, Frankie is pretty cute. He likes all people, rarely barks, and likes to play fetch. We hope you can meet him soon!

Now tell me. Why is She allowed to be on TV?

A few times a week I am caught brainlessly watching that E! Show with Ryan Seacrest and some insanely skinny woman with highlighted hair talking about BS celebritard stuff. I know Cat enjoys getting the scoop and I must admit it is actually pretty enjoyable making fun of Victoria Beckham (aka Sporty Spice). The show ends at around 11 or 11:30 and I'm usually sitting there on the laptop managing my fantasy baseball team when I have unfortunately (or fortunately?) caught one of the stupidest shows I have ever seen.




Can I tell you about Chelsea Handler? I only ask your permission because you may want to stop reading this post right now before wasting your valuable which could be better used cleaning the toilet or emailing your clients. Maybe you've heard of her show as "The Chelsea Handler Show" or "Chelsea Lately". Apparently it has gone through changes over the years in desperate attempts for terrible ratings. It first started out as a sketch comedy show with bad acting. It then morphed into a sit down on the couch interview type show. Now it includes three other "comedians" who sit at a table with Chels and comment on all things US Weekly.

Well, I gotta say that THIS SHOW IS TERRIBLE. The one I saw last night was 100% rehearsed with deadpan jokes chased with disingenuous fake crowd laugh. Every single line one of these idiots spoke was straight off of a cue card and in no way organic. "Jokes" flew at me at an alarming speed as if everyone on the show was hyped on red bull or 5 hour energy shots. One lame joke every 5 seconds? You got it. Make fun of the Latino Midget (Chelsea's sidekick) at least once a minute? Done. Chelsea makes a joke about being drunk? 15 times a show. Comedian guests plugging their DVD or future Standup Gig at Bob Levy's Comedy Club at the Ramada Inn in Levittown, PA at the end of the show? Absolutely!

I guess that this show does have an audience even though the ratings for it seem to have been erased from the Internet. But when you dig a little further you can easily find that Chelsea Handler has been "dating" E! Channel President, Ed Harbert. Nice work tearing apart Ted's 30 year marriage, Chelsea. And congrats on your crappy show.

Jesus Christo.

4, July, 2008 (weekend)

Like the rest of the Bay Area, we made our way up to the Donner/Tahoe region for the extended 4th of July weekend. Cam's family has a place on Donner Lake so of course we weren't the only ones there. Cam's Parents, 2 sets of Aunts & Unlces, and sister/sister-in-law Erica with dog Beanie were all celebrating our nation's independence from those gosh darn redcoats. After surviving the 5 hour trip up the hill (usually takes 3 hours), the whole posse dealt with more traffic on Friday morning to make it to Sunnyside on Westshore Tahoe for Brunch. The picture above was snapped on the beach while waiting 45 minutes for our drink order to be filled.

On Saturday we decided to check out Northstar to see what our favorite happy funtime snow hill was like in the summer. We must say, it was totally radical. Northstar has a serious mountain biking set up with great downhill trails all over the place. The nice thing is that if you don't have a bike, you can ride the lifts for free (well, as long as you buy a beer).

Greg and Erica made the trek with us to enjoy a great view at the lodge area top of Arrow Chair. What a view! We recommend hanging out at Northstar during the summer for anyone in the area. We'll definitely be back.

Satuday night involved a family game of flip cup. Here's a pic of the overall champions

We then went on a hike and after about an hour we found some snow. Cat snapped this photo of Cam making a cheese wedge kicker as he vowed to go back later in the day and shred the slush.

Why Can't I Eat This in California?

Cam here. I just got a huge craving for Marshmallow Fluff! No, I'm not pregnant (I'm male!) but I am known to go on sugar binges every now and then. Now tell me, how yummers is Fluff?!





After thinking about the delish that is Marshmallow Fluff I realized that I once had a Fluffernutter Sandwich as a kid and dang, was it good!

Now I'm on a mission. I am obsessed and spending time on the internets trying to find Marshmallow Fluff at a friendly, neighborhood grocery/convenience store. I may even move to calling stores up to see if they have it. What I am trying to avoid is ordering this stuff online for $15 + shipping.

My take is that Fluff and Fluffernutters are a regional delicacy not meant for Californey-ans. Kinda like Sonic (seriously, why are their commercials shown in CA?), Cookiepuss, and Devil Dogs. I also remember going on a Goo Goo Clusters binge while out in Tennesse a few years ago. We Californies are deprived.

Can anyone help me in my quest? Have you seen Fluff anywhere in the stores? Are there any other regional delicacies that you wish were stocked at the Safeway right by your house?
