Fun with Wasabi

At a restraunt that serves sushi? Bored? Try the latest trend that young professionals are doing all over a one square block area: wasabi chugging!

Avid "wasabier" Omar can't believe the burn and nose tingleing but said "there's just something about stuffing a spoonful of wasabi in your mouth that makes you feel alive. It's like no other feeling in the world! I NEED more WASABI!!!"

• 

So the next time you and your friends are out, spice up the night with a little bit of WASABI!!

We are sad to report that since this publication Omar was arrested on suspision of wasabi overdosing. He is now in rehab and is expected to make a full recovery in 5 years. Hopefully.

Miss Olivia comes home!

Judy's (the lady I work for) little two year old filly came home from a long long long stay at the vet's. Here are some pictures of "Shiny Red Penny" aka Olivia. She's been through a horrible virus that almost killed her and then the medicine that saved her gave her a belly full of ulsers that again almost killed her. So she is pretty tough and strong (my right arm's pulled muscles can testify to her strength), and she is very sweet! If anyone wants to come spoil her they can. She is taking the next year off before she begins her rigorous training for the two horse bobsled.

NEWSFLASH!!!!

I can't even believe it, but Brandi called me Friday night and wow, what she had to say just blew my mind! It snowed in California! Crazy huh? :)

Here is a picture of Brandi's baby Alex, the cutest kid in CA. for anyone who didn't see them. It was taken at Chrismas, when he was about 5 months old!

NIN Concert

Last night was the Nine Inch Nails concert in Lincoln. It was a pretty good time.  The people who went were myself, Anne, Derek, Adam, Chad, my sister Chris and her boyfriend Scotty.  We didn't see the opening band but oh well!!!  The concert itself I though was pretty good, the sound was awesome, Trent Reznor sounded and I must say looked pretty good as well.  I thought he was a little lackluster on a few of the songs, especially "Closer."  Maybe that was just me though.  He played some old stuff which rocked.  The crowd was ok.  I wasn't up front for too long so I don't know for sure.  Some punk ass grabbed my ass and Anne and I jumped at him and gave him a black eye and a bloody nose.  Oh wait, that's just what happened in my mind.  It was soooo cold last night, maybe one degree?  After the concert the boys were so sweaty and wet that they were steaming.  I don't envy Anne for having to ride home with them.  Oh and the really good pictures I didn't take, but they look the same as what I would have taken if I had took my camera up front.  All together good time and good show!

The road to Omaha....

Now that football is over and my life feels so bleak a ray of sunlight has broken through the clouds and fills my heart with joy......what is that ray of light? Kevin? Yeah right! :) It's Nebraska baseball!! The Husker's first game is tomorrow, Thursday the 16th against Charston Southern in South Carolina! The first Husker home game is March 10th against the Crimson Tide-'Bama! I won't go on and on about it but I'm just so happy college baseball is starting I had to share it with everyone.

Happy Birthday Monica!

Happy 25th Birthday Monica!!!!

(only 15 years till you're 40!!!!)

Super Bowl Pics

Pictures from the Super Bowl party at Kevin's are up! 
Kaitlynn's first Super Bowl, she doesn't seem too thrilled!  Guess she must have secretly been rooting for the Seahawks.

Barrel Racing #2

Another weekend of running.....and another weekend of learning.  Chance and I did not have a good day on Saturday.  We had two broken patterns meaning, I really screwed up.  But I did learn a lot and hopefully will be able to put that to good use.  Sheryl and Gypsy had their best barrel time on Saturday.  Congrats to her!  Sunday was better for me.  Chance and I didn't run as fast, but we had good patterns which is what we really need to focus on instead of speed right now.  So overall another fun weekend!  If anyone ever wants to come watch us run Columbus is only an hour and half away and you can drink beer and cheer loud!  Here's some more pictures and you will notice that Sheryl and I had a "twin weekend."
Ps-Trinity, none of the pictures of you and Bo turned out.  Well really none of the pictures of you turned out.  Bo looked good but for some reason the camera seemed to act funny, like it was broken, when ever you were in a picture.

Welcome Home!!!

For those who haven't heard yet, Dave came home (well back to his Army base in N.C.) yesterday from Iraq! He'll be home March 10th for a couple of weeks.

Welcome home Dave!!

Super Bowl XL

I can't believe that football season is almost over. I am already depressed about waking up on a Saturday or Sunday and not having 15 hours of non stop football to look forward to. This football season went by too fast! At least the Kentucky Derby trail has begun and Husker baseball starts in 14 days (woohoo!!).
So now it's the time for the main event. Super Bowl X-tra L-arge. I really think it's an interesting matchup. Both team look very strong and have a lot going into the game. I think the big difference maker of the game will be if the Steelers shut down Shaun Alexander, will Matt Hasslebeck be able to step up and make plays? The biggest weakness I see for Seattle is that they only played against 5 winning teams (mostly because the NFC sucked this year), they may not be ready to deal with the Steelers. The Steelers may give into the hype surrounding them and they themselves might take the Seahawks for granted.
That being said I will pick the Steelers to win. The Seahawks are 17th overall in defense(even though Grant Wistrom is still #1 in my heart :) ) and I think that hurts them in the end. But it is nice that they made it to the big game for the first time. I think they will be a contender next year as well. So go "Bus" and "Big Ben," Steelers-33 Seahawks 24.
