At this point in the season it’s like we’ve been given a new team and I am really liking what I’m seeing.
Red Wings Suck
Wolski now has a 3 game goal and point streak…
The rest of the Royal Family has 3 game point streaks.

Ugg. Beau jo's.
It’s not snowing. Vail pass got two feet, my hill got 2 inches. SADJHF*#$&*@. I’m not bitter. I swear. But honestly, I worked at beau jos for awhile for ski money, and I would never pay for that food. Ever. Its like casa bonita. Great when you’re a kid, not so good once your taste buds develop. The pizza shop across the street is OK though.
However, if you do go, please drink some of my beer that they have on tap. My real job thanks you.
I blame it all on my goalie
Speaking of which,
I should probably quit the web and go make some beer. Soon… Very soon….
I blame it all on my goalie
Well, I guess it’s not quite as bad as casa bonita (is anything?), but I’d still rather have piccis. We do have an excellent BBQ place in town, and a pretty good brewpub, if I may be so bold, but for some reason BJ’s gets all the people. Its that tradition and habit thing, just like AB, miller, and coors.

that dwarfs Casa Bonita in terms of terrible food.

I worked there in college in Colorado Springs.
