Hey fellow Bloobyrds. It’s been a long while since I posted anything new and although that’s been in large part due to the fact that snow is just beginning to fall again, the major reason is that I’ve been occupied by my new full-time gig. That’s right…somebody thought well enough of this little [...]
Many of you are already probably aware of this, but last year the list of skier-only resorts in the US shrunk by just a little bit. After 52 years of operation, Taos Ski Valley in New Mexico finally opened its lifts to snowboarders in March of 2008. The decision, partly inspired by decreasing [...]

Snowy Southern Hemisphere (Ski Press) – Skiinfo.com reports that as the long 2008-9 ski season finally winds down in the northern hemisphere, heavy snow in both Australia and New Zealand has led to
the southern hemisphere’s ski season beginning five weeks early last weekend. Meanwhile there are [...]
The recent heavy snowfall in the western U.S. hasn’t been good news for everyone on the slopes, especially those involved in the Freeride World Tour at Squaw Valley. Unfortunately, after a successful first day of competition on the Silverado Face, a storm rolled in and made conditions on the elusive Tram Face too dicey [...]

I really want to know who at Trysil we can thank for bringing us these awesome FREE online games to waste our time with. Normally I’d be stuck navigating some spec of a stick figure with lines for skis to navigate a series of dots and triangles…er, rocks and trees. Now, thanks to [...]
If you haven’t already noticed, there’s a brand spanking new section of the site we’ll just dub the “community” area. This section allows you to select your state of choice and drill down to find and offer rideshares (since we all want to save the environment, take cars off the road, and meet new people) [...]
This is not a joke. You ever wonder what would happen if that balding, overweight janitor from high school was secretly spending his time at home experimenting with synthesizers and MIDI’s, only to emerge 10-15 years later as somewhat of a cult hero in the electronic music scene? Enter Dan Deacon. This [...]
Gold Chains rocks BART. It’s so funny because the same thing happened to me on my way to work the other day…
Sometimes overshadowed by contemporaries like The Cool Kids, Spank Rock is part of a growing Baltimore hip-hop scene that’s making its mark by embracing the sounds of old school rap and drum and bass music. The first time I heard this track I was definitely a fan but then at about 3:00 in Amanda [...]
