The winter has finally arrived in Vermont. Better late than never, I guess. The coming of winter stimulates a myriad of emotions for a young, single snowboarder living in B-Town. On the one hand the falling snow means that we can stop watching snowboarding videos and playing Amped 2. The ability to satisfy our second strongest need, the desire to shred, is paralleled by the increased difficulty in satisfying primal urge number one, droppin’ in on a nicely shaped, freshly groomed college girl.
For those of you who are not aware, Burlington (A.K.A. Girlington) is a secret oasis of young, nubile college girls in the desert that is Northern New England. With three colleges, about eighty bars, a thriving music and dining scene, and the best snowboarding on the East coast all within 45 minutes of downtown Burlington, there is no shortage of females of every sort. College girls, waitresses, Spanish chicks, hippie chicks, snowboarder chicks (and plenty of pro-ho’s), nurses, punk-rock girls, salty sorority sluts, farmer’s daughters. Girlington has them all. The problem comes when the mercury dips. All of a sudden things come to a screeching halt. No more skirts and tank tops, no more booty-shorts going jogging, no more bikinis playing volleyball by the lake. Overcoats. More fucking overcoats and ug-boots than you ever thought possible. This creates a difficult situation for hollering at broads. It’s hard to roll up to some sweet little nugget on the sidewalk and start rappin to her, when your best 45 second game ends in frostbite, literally.
It’s a cold world out there in the Burlington winter. Some young gentlemen chose to hibernate. They simply purchase a sizeable amount of VT’s finest cash crop, buy the first season of Boondocks on DVD, and spend their days on the mountain and their nights on the couch. Granted, the occasional pre-existing jump-off may stop by, but this strategy usually leads to minimal encounters with the finer sex. Fuck that. We aint havin’ it. It’s time to warm up these frigid females with some smoov talkin’. Enough cloggin the blog. You can catch us at the bar, warmin’ up the ladies with a coffee and Bailey’s.

After rampant rumors about who would be headlining, Coachella finally released their schedule for what usually turns out to be one of the better US music festivals. Coachella is usually a reunion fest, and this year they make no exception. Mid-nineties “rap rockers” Rage Against the Machine made the right move, ditched the guy from Soundgarden, and figured they’re a better band with Zach De La Rocha. I may be more pumped for this reunion if i were still in middle school, but i’m not. On the other hand, i popped a boner when i heard that the Jesus and Mary Chain were reuniting to play this gig. Granted they only “broke up” in 98, it’s still exciting to know that one of the most influential (and one of my all time favs) are putting their sibling rivalry aside to hurt people’s ears with buzzsaw guitars, screeching feedback, and enough attitude to make you shit your pants. Instead of shitting my pants over this, I’ll just break out my black jeans and black t-shirts, poof up and tease my hair, and head out to the desert of California.
But these two newsworthy items aren’t the only reasons to go to Coachella. It’ll be interesting to see Jarvis Cocker solo without his Pulp buddies behind him. Bjork should be at her weirdest. Damon Alburn takes the stage with his new band, The Good, the Bad, and the Queen. Ghostface, the Roots, Pharoah Monch, and Spank Rock will be holding it down on the hip hop front. Lily Allen will bring her cheeky british self. The hypemachine will keep churning for Girl Talk. The Happy Mondays will bring over a piece of Madchester. And Air will tickle your fancy with their electro-pop goodness.
If you’ve got the money to spend, I suggest you get your tickets when they go on sale this Saturday.

so I awoke this morning ( .01.17.07 ) to a blustery 19 degrees as I boarded my septa train to 30th st station. As I arrived in the station I noticed my train was 30 min late. Oh shit I said. Of course it was more like 45 min late and loss more time on the way to to ewr. As I got to ewr I raced to get on the tram to the terminal when the door suddenly closed on my foot which of course scuffed my brand new foot patrol air stab’s. Shit shit shit. Well at least there was no line @ security as I approached that. Running to the gate I remembered I had forgotten my hand sanitizer so I stopped to pick some up and went down to my gate. The gate looked quite empty so I was stoked ! Except that they were calling final boarding so I dipped in to this tiny little mini plane and saw not only was the plane totally packed, but my dear curly had got me the last seat in the very last row. Plane ride was pretty chill, besides being squished nxt to some redneck farmboy that looked like an echo unlimited posterboy. After landing in btv i rocked a ride with the shuttle over to the hotel where i had a sweet lake view. ( see image above ) Got some tummy time at the cafe and made my way over to the B and listened to plans for a great 08 season . All was good on the businees tip , but of course as i raced to the airport i rushed to the counter to get my ticket and found out my flight was concelled cause they had one runway open in EWR. oh it gets worse dude, i had to eat the expense of my car service in ewr and spend the night at smoovs place on the couch with no phone charger cause i left that jawn at the B. I awoke the morning at 5am sharp and made my way to the airport and waited in security for about an hr. After getting through the 1 st stage of security the y decided to pull me aside and search my bags, and what did they find? UH OH i had brought my lotion and cologne onto the plane so they decided to confiscate that and make me even later to catch my plane. Long story short i missed the train from ewr to phl and had to incur even more costs to get on the next one and somehow lost my engagment ring too.
Traveling is really great in this day and age.
