jack johnson in cleveland

whew! been a long strange week for your captain!

monday was cool... rode the new bike a part of the way (about half) into work.

new bike:

felt SUPER strong chugging up the two hills i have to take back to my car! all is well (knock on wood...)... so today, i biked the whole 6.5 mile way into work! tonight i have to climb 3 hills on the way home, but i'll take my time and cruise when i can!

tuesday and wednesday... i did no biking. took a half day tuesday to roll up to cleveland with "the accountant" to see jack johnson! what an unbelievably great show! probably the best sounding show i've been to in quite awhile (probably ever... tom petty rocked it last year too though). hats off to jack johnson for continuing to make great music!

seats:

bass:

stage:

did i mention bass?

bass, by the way, is $8! ugh, quality beer!

it was hell getting out of the parking lot that night though!

hell:

the show was at blossom, near cleveland... if you go, make sure you're there for show time... not a minute earlier!!! we were early and were directed to park in the closest lot to the venue. sounds good at first... except when there is ONE road leading out of there and you have to wait for EVERYBODY! took us 2 hours to leave the lot... have fun, and good luck!

didnt take away from the show though... great time! robert randolph is playing there in september, so expect the same kind of post... with a little less biking, and a little more mexico b.s.!!!

flag day! fathers day!

oops... haven't submitted a post since monday. my bad!!!

i promise to return next week with a vengeance!

but first, and most importantly... big weekend!

flag day!

i'm always proud to display my flag on flag day (and on all other beautiful days), because 1) i love my country 2) show support to our troops overseas and 3) because i saw just how important and how proud my dad was to display his flag!

so tomorrow, my flag will be out in front of my house in memory of my Great Uncle Allen:

...and great he was! we'll miss you Uncle Allen!!! but i know you're in a better place with Dorothy and the rest of the family! just tell "deep" to keep the "blues" in the pots please!

so father's day will be sunday... it will the first fathers day since my dad passed back in august. my flag will be displayed for him on sunday! the rest of the year... well... will be for the rest of the family, friends, and people that make this such a great country!

have a great weekend everybody!!!

big weekend!

what a big weekend for paconation!!!

friday i used my instant blogging celebrity! i got into a pittsburgh exclusive opening of barroom...

--no pics--

...then got a tour of clear channel radio station and offices!

--no pics--

stellar reporting, AND memories to last a lifetime!

saturday got a new bike:

then proceeded to ride myself sick and dizzy (more-so than usual)! lol. i LOVE the heat, by the way (i really do! the hotter the better)...

then sunday woke up with an AWESOME pain in my neck!

slept wrong... aliens planted a device... karma... or something... who knows? either way it gave me an excuse to do NOTHING yesterday!

ahhh rest and relaxation for captain dummy!

i'm sure you've all noticed the "m" in "upmc" on uss tower is up and functional! does it look crooked though? i guess when you're hanging a letter the size of a street some 60+ stories in the sky with a helicopter you tend to be not all that anal about it! no pictures or anything... just look for yourself sometime!
i'm working on a little sponsorship myself...

oh... it will happen people...

fighting for our right...

well, the pens toughed it out... and i mean TOUGHED it out for their right to a game 6!

thepensblog had a GREAT thought for tonight's game (check it out here)... basically they said that, in short, the red wings wanted NOTHING to do with a game 6. the penguins, on the other hand, wanted EVERYTHING to do with a game 6. is that the edge the penguins need for tonight? could that mega-huge win for the penguins be the "wind out of detroits sails"??? did detroit expect and prepare themselves for the worst, even with a minute left in regulation of game 5?

we'll soon find out...

thepensblog went with the bee gees stayin' alive... i'm gonna switch it up a bit and go with this:



one thing is DEFINITELY certain...

pens are 9-1 at home in the playoffs

no matter what, THIS IS THE LAST TIME THE PENGUINS WILL PLAY IN THE MELLON THIS SEASON! this is the last time the penguins will be +17,132 strong this season! make it happen tonight, and i hope, hope, hope we take it to a game 7 in detroit!!!
as always:

"F" you detroit! "F" you and the horse you rode in on!

LETS GO PENS! LETS GO PENS! LETS GO PENS!

2 favorites, right off the bat!

so in my usual morning internet commute... you know... thepensblog, emptynetters, myspace, uniwatchblog, theburghblog (see links to the left)... etc. right off the bat, on thepensblog, i came across this article:

"Outrageous Tales of the Stanley Cup"

"Mike Bolt is the official keeper of the Stanley Cup. Where it goes, he goes. Here, he shares just some of the odder things that have been placed in or sucked out of the NHL's most cherished prize"

good article there, check it out here!

but the 2 best parts of the article??? RIGHT AWAY i notice my future ex-wife is featured in the side bar (today):

amanda bynes, my friends, is "paconations #1 favorite girl"!!!

love her!!! so how happy did my day start?!?!

so while i was reading along with the stanley cup article (before slime-ing... i mean... clicking over to amanda'a article and drooling for a good 2 hours (and finding this site)), i came across this question and answer:

"Who's downed the most booze from the Cup?[Ducks forward] Teemu Selanne is the warmest, most sincere man you could ever meet—but he is also one hell of a drinker [laughs]. We were at his place in Anaheim, and he had eight to 10 of his buddies there. They went through about 12 bottles of Scotch, right out of the Cup. If I drink half a bottle, I'm going to fall down, and I have a tolerance. Not Teemu. No problem. One of the best drinking clinics I've ever seen"


so now i'm faced with seeing "paconation's #1 favorite girl"... AND reading that "paconation's #1 favorite non-penguin hockey player" is a HUGE drinker!!! drinking 12 bottles of scotch out of the stanley cup?!?! trooper! ladies and gentleman... if that article read "they went through about 12 cases of bass ale" my head would have exploded! seriously! just to clear everything up for first time readers (which most of you are), bass ale is... "paconation's #1 favorite alcoholic beverage"

be back later, i'm going to search the far reaches of the internet for videos of amanda bynes taking a bath in bass ale... or a funny bowling video... whichever i can find first:
