Ahh, the Cougars. Veni, vidi, and almost vici.
I love you all.

Tequila Mom - Click to Play

First video from my trip to Mexico. Mom never does shots. But as they say, “When in Mexico, do as the American tourists do.”

I went down to meet my Mom, Dad, sister Katy, and her boyfriend (now fiancee after the trip) Torrey Teats. Katy Marie Quirk will soon be Katy Marie Teats. Insert nipple joke.

I had great video footage of Torrey proposing to Katy, but because I was unfamiliar with my new camera, and full of 11 kinds of booze, I recorded over that with footage of an iguana.

I’ll post that here soon.

Bluegrass - Click to Play

I wrote a little bluegrass ditty last night.

I won’t promise anything as productive and ambitious as a song a day, or even a song a week, but I think I’m going to try to record more music. Why? Because I can.

Also, thanks to the Indianapolis Colts for so skillfully dashing my hopes and dreams.

Again.

Last Licks - Click to Play

In accordance with Internet Videoblogging regulations, I submit a video of my cat. The whiteish one is Mary. The cheap-shot artist is Leo. One day everyone will have at least one cat videoblog.

Jay’s prediction is one step closer to reality.

(UPDATE: I found yet another new vlogger showing their cat: Amanda Congdon from Rocketboom

Maxwell’s - Click to Play

A music video type thing. Filmed in Maxwell’s bar in Hoboken, NJ. Music from the album “Dr. Goodlovin’s Family Fun Time” by Dr. Goodlovin’. They were a great band.

Warren or David Hayes (or any other Handsome Pony alumni), if you ever see this, get a hold of me at bullemhead@gmail.com.

Charile expounds on the recent tsunami as a sign of the times:

“Jesus spoke about wars and rumors of wars, nation rising against nation, earthquakes and famines, about the sun and moon being darkened and stars falling from the sky and the heavens being shaken.

Are all these things terrifying? Of course they are. When are they going to happen? I don’t know the day but I believe the season is at hand. Should we be afraid? Not if you’re a true follower of Jesus Christ.”

A response to Ryanne’s “No Answers” videoblog. Ahhh, religion. Now there’s something everyone can agree on.

AA Batteries - Click to Play

After giving a beautiful homemade gift to my neighbors, we realize that we need AA batteries. Covered in red food coloring, I go out looking for some.

Things I learned from this experience:
- Sometimes cops in Evansville drive tow-trucks
- Wearing a food-coloring soaked t-shirt in 20 degree weather is uncomfortable, even if you are full of whiskey.
- People are not as willing to give batteries to an accident victim as you might think.

PS. The friggin Colts are amazing!!!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAA!!!!
