2010 Men's Ice Hockey Olympic Rosters

Great to see Toews, Keith, and Seabrook all making the Canada team. That roster is ridiculous and should have no excuse for destroying every country this year. Predictions for the U.S.A. team??? JR makes a return!?!?!?

Are you at work?

Here's to the only workweek of the year I don't stick out for not doing any work

If no, rock an update about home adventures during the holidays. Let's see, on this day almost every year we are still hopeful that NYE will somehow end up matching expectations. Then 31 rolls around and it's all "Is Cozzens having people over?" So what of it. Where to this year?

(The exception, of course, is Mitch's party. Evan fired a Champagne cork in my face and Mitch said I could "take any rug in the house".)

Skiing out in Utah ruled this past week. Not a ton of new snow but they got a pretty good dumping in early December. We had a great Christmas even though I think I broke ol' Mike's iPhone. (Bobby, can you fix?)

Coop, what are your Sun Valley plans this season? If you say March, I may put my hand up = invite myself.

Do your damndest,
Klatt

6 reasons Santa is a man

He shows up late. Eats your cookie. Empties his sack & only comes once. Calls you a Ho & leaves when you're asleep.

RIP High School Destination, Actually Shopping at a Store

So I Google texted to find Dr Wax's #, so as to hit up the old stomping ground and pick up some holiday gifts, but only the one that showed up was the one in Hyde Park. aka the one you always see on the L. Then I 411'd it, and this nice 411 lady searched and searched, and came up empty handed.
Well, I found out it's closed.
I'm pretty bummed.
Gone are the days of getting high and parusing through their indie rock section. Gone is another reason to get out of the house and go somewhere with friends.
  • Where's Gryll going to get more posters to put in his basement?
  • Are the days of looking through CD stacks over?
  • Where is Mike going to finally trade in his complete Collective Soul catalogue?
  • Where is Bobby going to find the newest Jam bands?
  • Where is Sherman going to buy more Dispatch?
  • Where is Zach going to make an ass out of himself?
  • Where are Andy and Ross going to buy their newfangled Rap Discs?
  • Where is Galleon's Lap/Chesten Mayfield going to sell 48Hrs? (More importantly, when is the band getting back together?)

Can't live in the past, I mean iTunes is going to get awesome once they start selling porn...but what about that guy behind the counter who stood twenty feet above you both physically, and pretentiously?

I guess vinyl collecting is making a comeback. But don't let your Mom get rid of those "Mike" CD booklets full of gold, the laws of Trend mean CD's will be back. If they don't disintegrate first.
RIP Dr. Wax on Sherman. I blew a lot of lunch money at your store.



At least the Dr. beat out Tower.

Klatt's Hannukah Present to You




Monsters of Folk, check it out. Big ups to David.

Let's get some music rec's going. 'Twas a year for animal-bands in my book. Grizzly Bear, Department of Eagles, Animal Collective, and Phoenix all steadily paced me through the year (not to mention Fleet Foxes who still frequent the head-phones).


Colbert

Colbert lands on SI.

Alex/Andy, any chance you make it up to Vancouver during February. Possible big-seller: Wilco plays a huge free show in a downtown park on that Saturday, Feb. 13. All-comers welcome. Floor space available.

SI has the 2000s greatest NHL performances. Spoiler: Hawks six-goals unanswered comeback in October makes the cut.

Shameless Self Promotion

So I've been working for this small production company in Seattle that's flying to Copenhagen to do some filming, and they've entrusted me with promoting it.
I highly recommend you follow me/Evergreenfilm on Twitter (http://twitter.com/Evergreenfilm), fan us on Facebook (which several of you awesomes already did, thanks!, http://bit.ly/4AuNdB), and to watch all their videos over and over again to inflate the number of channel views.
Apparently they will be interviewing Governator in the next couple of days. You know if there's anyone to take out 100,000 earth loving protesters, it's John Matrix.

It was in my head...

Then I googled. I rocked. And now it will be in yours.

Christmas/New Year's

who will be home? trying to decide if it (namely, you) are worth the couple hundred dollars to fly in for a few days.

World Cup 2010


The groups are in and looks like the U.S. has drawn a pretty favorable hand, matched with England, Slovenia, and Algeria. Group G will have Brazil, Ivory Coast, and Portugal battling it out and I am pretty pleased with the cushy spot Italy landed. I wonder if it was really all about the luck of the draw...

Other matches not to be missed will be Germany-Ghana and France-Mexico.

Excel much?
