Top 10 reasons to look forward to fall



Summer sure feels like its over, even that late afternoon glow reminds of skipping class in September to "study" on the backfield.
There is still a few quick weeks left of summer, so make what you want of it.
However as fall approaches, Im taking the liberty to point out the top 10 reasons to look forward to autumn in Fernieland.

Top 10 Reasons to Look Forward to Fall in Fernie:

10. Fall Fashion

Sick Hoodies, Cords, New Jeans, Fall jackets, Leggings with cute dresses, TALL BOOTS!!! AHHHHH!!! FUN! Also this is the best time for Clothing Swaps!

9. Sports/Drinking at The Pub.

Dull rainy days call for ceasers and wings at the Pub. Just the comfortating way to make it thru till winter. Ghostrider games are back, NHL reappears and people commit to yoga classes.

8. Starting to plan out your winter ski/snowboard look/steez.
Scenesters and hill regulars get more amped on what they are gonna rock this year then what the Farmers Almanac forecasts. Dont you know its a fashion show up thuurrrr! duh

7. New people arrive.
Ahhh the fresh meat hits the streets and clubs. Entertaining for both sexes.

6. Vacations. If you were smart you saved your coin and have a fall trip planned. I am going to Maui. I put it on my credit card tho, Im half smart??? If you didnt save anything you can enter to win a trip to Costa Rica HERE

5. Demolition Derby
Sunday September 6th, Fernie Rodeo Grounds.
Brought to you by the fine folks from the Lions Club this specktacle will leave you with a hangover from hell and laughs and smiles for years. I recall my first experience with the Derby. I was young, naive, and working as a tv reporter. I was on the hunt for some good local television (chuckle). Well, I got my tv segment, along with sharp destinct memories of some of the best mullets I have ever seen in real life. Also, I gained a new respect for a "side" of Fernie that keeps this place a colourful and interesting city to reside in.

4. Food
Taste of Fernie and Taste of Scotch. PLUS with fall harvest, zuccinni loaves, pumpkin pies and butternut squash soup will keep you warm and toasty.

3. Kids go back to school, nuff said.

2. Halloween Parties and Secret Bush Raves.
AHHH I love halloween, I take it almost as serisouly as my costumes for Shambhala. Last year I was Marie Antionette, I dont have anything planned yet, but never doubt me. And I hope there is another secret bush rave this year. So much fun. I hear its up Hartley Lake Road this year...

1. ALBERTANS GO HOME AND STOP BITCHING ABOUT GAS AND PST.
Wow, I know I work in retail and I should think about a career change and all, but fuck, Im fucking over explaining to Albertans, that yes, you do have to pay PST even tho you are from Alberta. And yes our province has PST, and yes it sucks for you cuz you arent used to it. You are here on vacay and Im very happy you chose Fernie, and Im happy you are shopping in the stores here, but you are irritating me to high hell. Our province is awesome, Im happy to pay the tax if it means I get to be in BC and not in AB. If you cop this 'tude with me one more time, Im not going to let you buy those $8 earrings that are on sale 50% off. This fall we do get a break from the tourists. Its okay to say it, we love tourism money ya ya ya, but its nice to have a break for our sanity. Right??? Or has retail made me a cold hard bitch? Don't answer that you dick.

Dedicated to John Drummond

Summer aint over yet!



Another Fabulous Beach Jam will be happ happ happening this Sunday at the West Fernie Swim hole. Bring some cash and donate to the cause, cuz throwing this jam costs Fedski money and we should pony up a little.
A Special Guest from Calgary will be hitting the decks and spitting on the mic.

Until then, download this sweet mix HERE

Major Bummer.


While I was at Sham, my most favoritist director of all time died. Im sad.
Director John Hughes suffered the heart attack while taking a morning walk during a trip to NYC to visit family. He was 59.

He directed such '80s hit films as "The Breakfast Club," Weird Science," "Sixteen Candles" and "Ferris Bueller's Day Off."

Those of you who claim to be an "80's baby," if you do not know who this man is you are NOT an 80's baby.

yay.


I hate that Im forced to love the Transrockies. Cuz I dont like it.
Argh.
When the Euros come here, someone needs to explain to them that we dont have "whore houses" here, no matter how many times you ask.

Im Totally Going!

Kids.


Sometimes I think people are just having kids cuz they think its cool and they are searching for their next sense of fullfillment cuz the degree in whatever didnt bring it, neither did the jetta or the condo. Ya whatever I just said it. My mom recently gave me this article, it totally got me thinking. Have a read its really worth it. Im not afraid to have the conversation that not wanting kids isnt a bad thing. The part in the article about how the "pill" has really fucked up our idea of having a "desired" child kinda blew my mind...

Dont worry Im alive and well. Im back from my favorite place on earth, Shambhala. After an intense week of fun and more fun(the part when Meesh showed up) and stupid fun, my brain is operating 94%, I hope to reach 100% brain power after only a few more minor setbacks, like Josh Martinez and the Demolition Derby.
If you have never been to Sham, well, I dont really have the energy to explain it to you. Its only the best party on the planet. period.
Even tho Im back, I cant stop tap tap tappping my feet and shaking my ass. Download the Smalltown DJs shambhala mix if you know whats good for you. Also dont forget, Friday September 4th, MSTRKRFT W/ Steve Aoki & Smalltown DJS at Flames Central in Calgary. Kinda important. www.ticketmaster.ca

Are Ravers Taking Over Warped Tour?

First the turnout at EDC, now Warped Tour? It seems as though electro based music is taking over at music festivals. As URB predicted about a year ago, electro/ hip hop infused screamo is becoming a hit with the kids. This year at the Vans Warped Tour, acts like Millionaires, Attack Attack! and Brokencyde are drawing large audiences with their hybrid style of music. The kids who were too embarrased to admit they like crunk and those too embarrassed to admit they like screamo can finally unite, kind of. Warped Tour is currently in the middle of their dates, ending in Los Angeles on August 23.
