My Vegas Experience

Normally I would find that ammount of slutty sex, waste, gluttony, Americanisms, vanity, and overindulgence distgusting and sad. But I think the giant adult playground in the middle of the desert oddly facinating and addicting (not in the gambling way). I dressed skanky, I went to a rock concert, I clubbed, I ate at buffets and I shopped for things I didnt need. Whatever I had fun. I gambled $4 and won $5, my ADHD kicked in after that and I was off to my next adventure soon after.Super good times in small smalll doses!

I recommned this venture, ESPECIALLY if you are taking off from the Kalispell Airport. How easy! How Convienient! Everything from leaving Fernie to arriving the in hotel room was soo easy. Its all a big well oiled machine. Very impressed with how incredibley systematic every is and well planned out it all is. YAY!

Call up Amy Hare at Flight Centre Associates here in Fernie if you want to book.

Have Fun!

And the Pixies at the Hard Rock was just, heart warming, cant explain you had to be there but im sure they would say the same..

Town Bits and Bites

Three things that made me happy this week.

1. There is cheese shop opening right beside Odessy Clothing late November. Called Le Grande Fromage, ahhh love it and its on my way home from work, hell its close enough for coffee cheese breaks.

2. Oysters are back at the Picnic, $2 a oyster on Thursdays! Wellllllll then!

3. Non-Stop apparently have been booking waaaaaay less long stay rich kids and booking waaay more short term young professionals. What does that mean for town? young professionals who are only statying for 10 days will tend to venture out to restaurants and stores and actrually spend money. They are slightly older and more mature appartently when it comes to bar scene schnanagens as well.

hope this helps your week like it did mine. Happy Indian Summer!!!

Rockpile Cameo

Rockpile dont get to many cameo apperances...remember how fucking good that night was!?!??!!

Aries Full Moon Tonight

This Full Moon is especially potent. This time of the year is normally the point at which we harvest - and the symbolism of a Full Moon is the same - a time of fruition in the monthly lunar cycle.

This then is a time of endings and beginnings. The Aries Moon urges us to break free from restrictions, seek new emotional landscapes - to dare again and find the path that leads to our own autonomy - freedom.

Full moons signify the completion, culmination of what may have been initiated during the previous new moon in Virgo which highlighted communication, analyzing situations prior to making judgements or taking action, being practical and encouraged us to be of service to service. This Full Moon in Aries highlights the balance between the self (who I am) and the shared self (who I am in a relationship); the potential of our individual selves and our partnerships; and the consideration of another's needs as they pertain to our own basic needs.

Coupled with Saturn also transiting the partnerships sign of Libra, where he's whipping us all into shape with lessons in love, relationships, commitments, partnerships, equality and objectivity, this full moon touches upon our relationships and perhaps, finally making the long overdue necessary changes. Time to grow up -- whether it's taking things to the next level of commitment; learning to accommodate, compromise, communicate; standing up for one's self; or however this full moon may play out in your life.

This is the first of two full moons occurring in Aries this year, giving this lesson on learning to balance the self and its needs/wants within relationships -- may they be intimate, platonic, familial or business. Next month's full moon in Aries will be on October 30.

I Think We're Alone Now

Okay, my family can attest to the fact that when I was 6 or 7 I was completely obsessed with Tiffany. I mean, really, who wasnt!?
I had a giant lifestyle Tiffany door poster, I knew all the words to every song in which I performed concerts in the musty basements for all my stuffed animals and my little sister. I LOVED Tiffany. But, I dont think I loved her as much as these guys. Ya, awkward new documentary made about Tiffany's "Super Fans" - UNREAL!

A year away still

This just made me happy...

Autumn Equinox

Ahhhhhhh, big sigh of relief, hockey is back on!

HAPPY AUTUMN EQUINOX!!!!

Water Quality Advisory

I am a complete new-junkie, nooo question about it, i picked up the habit when I spent 4 years working in a television newsroom. I have absolutely not seen ANYTHING from the city about this current "Poor Quailty - Boil Water Advisory".
It seems to me that the city of Fernie must only warn residents about the quality of water by ancient ways of communicating. Their ancient ways of communicating include visiting ACTUAL websites! Yes they expect us to go to fernie.ca and scroll to the bottom and look at the water quailty index. I bet they "fax" out shit too, ahahahha jeeezzz. No Fernie, you will not get a Facebook status update or a Twitter Tweet or a posting on Ourfernie/Local news sites.

So write this down or bookmark it residents, www.fernie.ca and scroll to the bottom for the water quailty index. If its a "POOR" everyone should boil, If its a "Fair" people should be careful, and those with weakend immune systems should boil. Last night it was poor, today its fair. If its raining a lot or you, I dunno, get a bad vibe??? then go check the index.

Fail

In case you were wondering... yes that meat dress, meat purse and meat booties were made of real meat...

The Globe and Mail:
Mr. Fernandez, an L.A.-based artist, told MTV Style that he’d procured 50 pounds of beef – or what he called matambre, a South American roast – from his family butcher “in the valley.”

Construction took two days and the dress was refrigerated; Mr. Fernandez later transported it in a cooler – “its own little coffin.” The final product weighed 40 pounds and sat atop a corset. “Gaga said it smelled good,” he said.


and this meat dress didnt even shock me, my WTF momment of the MTV Awards was Will.i.Am painted black in his Gaga-pop-art inspired look. Jesus man, stick to what works and leave the statment looks to Gaga. Somwhere Jay-Z is shaking his head.
You let Gaga's offensive dress off easy when everyone started calling you a racist, this is just fucking hilarious. FAIL

Don’t drink and hit “send”
British teen who wrote “abusive” email to Obama banned from U.S. for life

Seventeen-year-old Luke Angel has learned the hard way that nothing good comes of firing off an expletive-filled email while soused. The British teenager has been banned for life from entering the United States after he sent the White House a curse-laden email directed at President Obama. A police spokesperson told a British newspaper that the note was “full of abusive and threatening language.” Officers visited Angel at his home in Bedfordshire, England, during which time the teen admitted to sending the e-mail, although he couldn’t remember what he wrote. “I was drunk,” he told The Sun. “But I think I called Barack Obama a pr—. It was silly—the sort of thing you do when you’re a teenager and have had a few.” The severity of the punishment has yet to dawn on Angel. “I don’t really care,” he said, “but my parents aren’t very happy about it.”

What Would You Say?

Two Ladies walk into a quaint little fashion boutique. Both have children, one lady has a 3 year old boy and the other lady has a 6 month old on her hip. After several minutes of casualy looking over the merchandise the mother of the 6 month old asks the sales clerk "would you mind if I changed my baby's diaper on your couch". The couch a green velvet store centerpiece in the middle of the store.
The sales clerk, flabergasted says "well uhhhh, ummm".
"Is that a problem?????", demands the out-of-town lady.
"Well we dont have a public washroom, there is one across the street", respnds the clerk.
"What?? I cant change my diaper in your store????", the two women visually pissed off gather their items in a hurry and storm out.

.....In what mind did those women think changing a kids shitty diaper in the middle of a boutique would be appropriate?????? Would they have asked to do this in the Gap?

Moms whip out a teet whenever and where ever these days regardless of what others think to breastfeed, and thats politically correct, but now we have to deal with the smell of shit to accomodate motherhood now too?????? What the hell?????

What would you have done with your child???? What would you have said to the mother???

I googled this and the article I found was when Kim Kardashian tweeted about a woman in a restaurant pulling an impromtu diaper change right there in the resto. It sparked a media whirlwind - read here

Screwed

If you go to America and see the prices of wine, you will be highly tempted to buy some. But it is not worth it to buy any booze unless you've been in US for longer then 48 hours. I REPEAT, Not WORTH IT.
My $6.99 Ravenswood turned out to be $20 with duty, same price in the BC Liqour Store. Argh!

I didnt go.

I worked all weekend, how was the Derby?

No Food For You - Come Back Next Season

Trust me, I was waaaay more mad then I am now, but because my vintage 2004 laptop takes 2 hours to start up, Ive had some time to cool off.

But still, WHAT... THE.... FUCK!

Its the last long weekend of the summer, last big weekend to milk the tourism, a morning after derby...and you cant get breakfast in Fernie.

WE drove to Blue Toque - Closed, Old E - Closed, Red Tree - Closed, Smittys - over hour wait, Park Place - Only one server for full resto, hour wait for food at least, Mugshots - not one empty table, massive lineup, Tim Hortons - 15 car lineup.

HUH?????

Im sorry but with all the Calgarians and Tourists and Locals, places closed for business on the Holiday Monday?????

We cry and cry that our dry seasons are soooo dead and yada yada yada, but you choose to not make money this past Monday????

Not only are all these tourists leaving with THIS as their final impression of Fernie, but dont fucking cry when its dead this fall and you have no customers. Its the nature of the beast of this town you gotta make your money when you can.
What a lovely little "fuck you" that was to everyone visting our town for the weekend. "Hey thanks for choosing us and not the USA or Banff or Whatever - thanks for spending your cash here and all , but ya you gotta wait an hour for a coffee to hit the road, oh and ya, no breakfast for you either, Sweet thanks see you next time you're back!!"

You gotta think, maybe they closed cuz its never really busy for them and they cant afford staff all summer for just a handful of busy weekends. What a stupid vicious cycle this town is in. We want tourism, but we dont have enough to operate properly so -now we just have this half-assed tourism.

PFFFFFFFFT.

what a shitty holiday Monday morning.

Schoolyard hungry nom nom nom

Muffin Tops For All

iPhone4

um Im in the market for a new laptop. Everyone is like "get a mac get a mac", ya ya ya, I know I KNOW they are cool and hip and more effienct and all that nerd talk. But honestly after watching all these fucking retarded iphone4 commericials that promote the video telephone...I really dont feel like supporting a compnay that makes me vomit in my living room when I see and hear the "remember that thing we've been working on??" or that fugly face of the boyfriend checking out his girlfriends butch new haircut. Fuuuuuucking hell, soooooo LAME. I hate these commericials. They are WAAAAY worse then those "Windows 7 and it was my idea" commericials. Out of complete spite Im thinking of going PC. Fuck u apple and your blow-chunks cheeesey commericials.

iPhone 4 FaceTime Commercial - parody - watch more funny videos

Derbs'

Wow, white people go fucking ape shit for this derby shit. Again Im hearing some mad talk about how wasted and fucked up people are going to be. Fair enough, the weather is shit, honestly the whole summer was shit and you work hard for the money so go fuckin at'er. In the spirit of derby dont forget to remember why you are there, take a momment, pause or keep stumbling if you are gonna fall over, look around through your one eye and take and big whiff of the fumes. Remember, this is a special special day in Fernie, friends and family coming together and expressing ourselves in what we truely love and do best apparently. Rock On.

please be safe and know your limits - sorry I just have to say it for the sake of the many times I have seen familiar faces at the derby buck naked in the bleachers winging abround "helicopters", or passed out in ditches, or starting stupid fights, or ...... ya you get the picture.
