Frydeeeee

Twas a good Friday - got outta work early and pretty much everything is now taken care of from my accident. My"less upsidedown-y" car is now registered and has VT tags. All around, I'm just feeling good. I need to bottle this energy and remember it for those times I'm feeling down.

Sidenote: The Schick Hydro commercials worked on me. I bought it. And tried it. A+

Felchville

Yep, there's a town in Vermont called Felchville. Just thought people should know this.

Youtubesday

This is a new bit I'm going to be trying out. Every Tuesday I'll post a video or two that I found interesting on YouTube this week. We'll start off easy this week. How could anyone not enjoy the Afghanistan version of Lady GaGa's Telephone?

I Heart Assault Rifles

Yep, you read that correctly. A bumper sticker that says "I Heart Assault Rifles." This car also had a bumper sticker for FreeVermont.net, a Vermont secession movement, so take that into consideration.

Burton US Open Poster

Awhile back, I won a poster from Burton through a contest on their Twitter account. The poster came yesterday, and here it is:

Ugh

Let me start off by saying this - I'm a huge fan of my camera, a GE A1235. It takes good shots (I think, at least) and for $70 bucks, brand new, I really can't complain. That being said, this thing chews through batteries. There's nothing more frustrating than thinking you have half a battery, then 5 minutes later getting a "Batter Exhausted" warning. Not to worry - if I let it sit overnight, the batteries magically recharge! If it wasn't for this one issue, I'd recommend this camera to anyone. Instead, I'll tell people to buy stock in Duracell when purchasing this camera, because you're gonna eat more batteries than this guy.

Driving Range

One great thing about living in Vermont is that no matter where you are, the view is usually spectacular. The Okemo Valley Golf Course is no different. I checked you the driving range Sunday May 2 on a gorgeous 80 degree day. The great thing about the range is not only do they have the driving portion, but they have a rather large practice green, complete with fringe, chipping area and bunker. I ended up with a rather large blister on my thumb, but it was great to get outside and actually do something.
