How was the wine Birdy?

It was okay, should've had more.

I am am not ashamed to admit I know the words to all the songs in Grease 2. On ABC Family right now.

Maybe the 3yr old shouldn't sing "Uptown Funk" in public. She kinda drops the 'n' in funk. ;) It is also fun to hear her and the 2yr old sing "Blank Space"
 
Uptown Funk just heard that for the 1st time in the songs stuck in your head thread I liked it, off to you tube Blank Space . Also heard some Warren Zevon for the 1st time in a long time, he died too early.
 
Blank Space had heard just didn't know the title. Video kind of suggests that ******* be crazy though.

it's Swizzle playing off the media always saying how she has many boyfriends and is too crazy for them to stay. I actually like the tongue in cheekness of it. In the video, she makes her famous award face when she drops the phone in the pool.
 
Ugh. Gonna go home and have a couple Bikini Blonde Lagers.


Excellent choice...we toured Maui Brewing when we were there. I actually preferred that over the Kona brewing offerings. Just saw Kona brewing stuff in Fareway the other day...wasn't sure whether to be excited that it was available, or roll my eyes at the silliness of Hawaiian beer in Fareway in January.

The amount of this post that I understand tells me I'm old. Things I don't know:

Song
video
Artist
Story of artist having a lot of boyfriends
Artist's 'famous' award face

And that I'm fine with all of that just adds to it. I guess maybe when the kids get older and get into music I'll maybe be a little bit in tune with current pop stuff, but honestly I'm fine if I don't.

Song--Blank Space
Video--Blank Space
Artist--Taylor Swift
Story--Taylor Swift supposedly dates a lot of guys, not for long, famous names (other singers, actors, Kennedys)
Too lazy to look up a pic. :p

My 9yr old is a bit of a Swiftie (Taylor Swift fan). My hubby took her to her concert last time she was in DSM as a surprise birthday gift (she was turning 8--I didn't go to my first concert until I was in HS). Even our oldest likes Taylor, she happened to be invited to the concert as well by a friend. He would love to take both girls when she is here in October again.

Hah...I actually thought the artist was "swizzle" that CG referenced.

I'm familiar with Taylor Swift, kind of...can't recall ever hearing one of her songs.

Today looks to be shaping up to be one of those days when the boys end up crying about the fact that they don't have anything to cry about. 'course, they're both fighting some level of crud, so I understand, but such fun...

:rolleyes:
 
So how was CAH? Do we get house pics soon?


it was fun! I'll see if I can remember to move some pics from DH's camera over today. And then you can see an exciting picture of a basement sized hole now with gravel and bits of concrete!

I got excited when Kona Brewing was in select stores in Indiana, but learned that anything on the mainland comes from their Washington (or maybe Oregon?) factory, not actually from Kona. Kind of lessoned the excitement.
 
Anyone know what a "shady college bear" is? CW, if you are going to make a really bad analogy, you should at least proof read your article.

Well, to be fair, shipping from HI to the mainland is not kind on beer, so by having a stateside operation, they're going to deliver a higher quality product. Maui brewing addressed this specifically in their tour, saying that the very small amount of distributing they do on the mainland is a PITA because they have to time it, they have to specially arrange for below decks storage (more reliable temperature...imagine a shipping container in the hot sun), etc. They said that other than possibly huge markets like NYC or Chicago, they probably won't ever get beyond the first tier of states along the west coast.

It was a good beer. Very crisp. I'm partial to my Longboard, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't like this one as much as the it.
