I'm looking for a few more podcasts to add to my ipod while biking to work. Anyone have any podcasts that they just love? I'd love recommendations. I'm pretty open on topics as long as they are interesting.
Thanks!
Mike

Sort of a neat site if you want to sit at your computer and make a few bucks. I haven't tried it but I thought I'd post it.

Like folk music? I think it's about time to make a folk music mix tape. If I had any musical talent I'd love to do folk covers of popular music...sort of like richard cheese does with lounge music.
Anyway, I recommend this group...

| Summer Fun |
[15 May 2009|08:48am] |
A few weeks ago Joelle and I attended a dance concert up at CU. While it was fun for me, she's not a huge fan of modern dance. Regardless, we started talking about our desire to see more theater. That got us talking and I ended up budgeting for some summer events we wanted to attend. I figured I'd post it here and see if anyone else is interested in attending some of these before we start looking at specific dates and buying tickets.
Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat - It's being performed at the little theater of the rockies up in Greeley from June 17 - 21. I don't know ticket prices yet but I'd guess around $25? I know Shane was interested in coming to this.
Forever Plaid - Also up in greeley, probably the same price. Dates are July 29th - August 2nd. Last time UNC did this show it was amazing. It's the same director as before so I am guessing it will be just as good. I'd guess prices are around the same.
Big River - Performed at the Arvada center. July 14th - August 9th. Tickets are a bit more expensive to this one, around $45-$50.
Richard Cheese - August 29th at the Gothic. Tickets are $35. I've always wanted to see him in concert and this is his last tour because of vocal cord issues.
Anyway, if anyone is in interested in seeing some theater, shoot me an e-mail and we can figure out dates/times.
Thanks!

Just FYI I lost my cell phone. So don't bother trying to call me. I should have a new one by tomorrow which means I'll probably need phone numbers again. :)

| sick... |
[26 Sep 2008|07:04pm] |
So I'm convinced disney world is one large cesspool of germs :)
Ellie and I got back and on the way back from the airport we started to feel sick. By wednesday it had really taken hold and this morning I didn't want to move. I'm glad though that it happened after the honeymoon and not during.
To all of our friends, we miss you lots and once we feel better we really want to spend some quality time with all of you. :)

| Disney Bus is the best birth control... |
[22 Sep 2008|10:01pm] |
Taking the bus back from the Magic Kingdom after a fireworks show is the best birth control one could hope for....
Imagine a bus full of tired children of all ages that are wet and tired from a long day at disney. Then realize if you are one of these children and you never want to leave the magic kingdom but your parents are making you.
Yep..a bus full of that makes someone never want to have kids. :) There are magical times here that I wish my friends could experience...Rayn, Owen, Wendy....I'm sure they would really love it here. But for me I'll bring my friends kids here everytime. :) I don't need to have my own kids to do that....

I wish I weighed myself before this trip...
I swear..the food at disney, most of it is not the best for you. But they do have some good options....apple slices rather than fries, more hummus here at the Animal kingdom lodge than you can shake a stick at. But more than that, the walking...oh the walking...
Tonight running from the Fantasmic show to the bus I think I did myself in. The rest of the week I've been fine but my flip flops are not the best to run in. Joelle had a bad day on Wednesday and her feet have blisters on them. Since then we have been taking it fairly easy.
Overall, I'm sure I've lost a few pounds, but I'm actually rather curious to the actual number.
On a good note, my dad went through surgery yesterday. They think the got all the cancer which is wonderful news. His lungs are still filling up with fluid which isn't good but it does sometimes happen. Hopefully he will be out of ICU by tomorrow.

| Disneymoon! |

Well we are here. Just making a quick post, I'm going to work on uploading some pictures later. Disneyworld is alive and kicking. Joelle and I have been having a great time. We just got back from the Magic Kingdom and are taking a quick break before heading back out in the humity. So far, it's been a blast. The only downside in my opinion is how fucking humid it is. I'm just not used to it.
Anyway, hope things are going well for all of my friends. Like I said, I'll try and get some posts up later.
