The Decembeard and Epic Book Update

Hey there QCI-ders... long time no talk.. Ne vous en faites pas. Cool? Thanks. Anyways... everyone all dug out?

How awesome are snow days? Pretty freaking awesome if you ask me. I mean... It's like an unexepected bonus. Like finding a $20 in a jacket... that you totally thought you scored a late night pizza with...

Anyways... we're getting the randomnous out of our the deep freeze... thawed out and ready to be deep fried. Deep fried with awesome.

Hit it...

THE DECEMBEARD - Yups... that's right... Ole G$ is taking another adventure in personal grooming... you all loved yourselves some mullet... now... embrace the Decembeard. That's right... the Decembeard. What started as not shaving the week of Thanksgiving is now turning into yet... another cultural phenom.... But... I gotta admit... this thing is more difficult than the mullet... I mean... the mullet just flowed with awesome...

I mean the Decembeard is just as awesome... its just... itchy as hell... and takes a little more patience. Plus... never really done the beard before. I mean... I've done the whole mean ass facial hair thing... Goatee here... handle bars there... but this is the whole face... well... I would say for you South Hammies reading... very Lovell-ish... Minus the glasses... and just as awesome as everyones favorite art teacher. Also... the Decembeard... not so full right now... of which I'm reminded by my hairball younger brother... the Decembeard will look great once I hit puberty... nice... jerk...

Anyways... only growing this for the holiday season... Is the Decembeard the new Mullet? Hmmm... Oh, and to all the haters out there? The more you mock it... the more awesome it becomes... of which is an entire chapter in my book... I'm Sorry... I'm Sorry I'm Awesome.

POLITICAL ROUND UP - Yups... The Gibbons peeps have some ideas on tax holidays. Good stuff. Good ideas. TEB is touring... per the tweets. The Fix says Culver is in deep political "doo doo"... I know its the news and all... but just say it... alright? Just say the damn word... "Doo Doo" is as bad as calling it "poo". SMH. Again... that is another chapter in the new EPIC BOOK...

EPIC BOOK UPDATE - Yeah... so we've been chriping a lot about this... and that's what awesome snow days are all about... We knocked out a ton of hella content. Minus the fact that I can't write in complete sentences... or spell for that matter... its still turning out to be... you knew it... epic. I've been given permission to say this about the Epic Book by my peeps... actually my agent said, "Wow... what the hell goes on in your head? All I can say is.. Welcome to G$ Land... Epic." I know!!! Even my agent thinks this is gonna be epic! And I haven't gotten to the coloring pages!! Anyway. Great progress this week... and I'm feeling really good.

IOWA/IOWA STATE TONIGHT - Yeah... I'll say Go Hawks... but I don't think it's gonna help much. Hope Coach Lick gets well soon tho...

QCI FACEBOOK STATUS OF THE DAY

"So and so... my christmas tree looks more like a fat over grown shrub. no matter how i turn it, its still crooked. its still fat. its still my christmas bush. i dont know whether to decorate it, or set it on fire."

Notice Sly's awesome Decembeard... Plus, I can totally envison a video montage of me digging out the hoopty in the hood... while some pretty boy West Des Moiner is having some poor sap clean his joint out with their association dues...



Oh and how could I post that vid... and not this one? Child please... I know my stuff... that's like havin' Harold Melvin without the Blue Notes... you'll never go platinum.... Crank this too!!!

Acts of Awesomeness

This is so weird... but awesome at the same time. So today... for some odd reason... (I'm seriously blaming a full moon or something)... people are acting bat shit crazy lately... and at the same time... exuding awesomeness. I mean... well... the bat shit crazy part... Yeah... peeps are acting funny... hard to explain... but there seems to be a hitch in the getty up of peeps..

That being said... from reading your emails... notes from straight up people watching... and talking to some loyal readers... you all are livin' it up... El Camino style... I mean... not only acting like the bad asses that we all know El Caminos are... but cool and awesome at the same time. How about a couple examples... shall we? Since we are living in weird, yet awesome time... let's just call this post... "Acts of Awesomeness"...

Act of Awesomeness #1 - So... a loyal reader said he moved to Clive... and he was like "Sorry G$, I'm in West Des Moines." I was like, "Nah man, yous in Clive... not West Des Moines. So you're good to go." And he was like, "Yeah man." And I was like, "West Des Moines sucks." And he was like, "West Des Moines does suck." See... its awesome that this loyal reader thought he was disapointing the World's Crappiest Blog because he moved to Clive. Not disappointed. But 20 bad ass Awesome points for knowing that, West Des Moines... sucks. See this act of awesomeness is about the El Camino mindset... awesome.

Act of Awesomeness #2 - Out grabbing some food with a couple of loyal readers and even better El Caminos the other day... it was one of these joints where you take a number... they call it... you go and get your grub... right? So me and a crew were waiting our table... Then the dude at the counter says, "Number 69..." Which gets a load of snickers from our table... no one is answering... the dude yelled it loud, "NUMBER 69!" Diet soda is coming out of our noses at this point... Dude yells again, and now he's a little pissed, "NUMBER 69!!!" Then out of no where... a lady from a table full of high class business types stands and yells, "Winner, winner! Chicken dinner!" And goes to pick up the trays of food. Do I have to explain why this was an act of awesomeness?

Thinking this may be a new feature... do you have some "Acts of Awesomeness"? Use the comment section or shoot me an email.
