Remember when I wrote about how I was home brewing with my buddy Raaj? Well, our first batch of beer is complete. Check out the label I created for our first round of beer.
It smells like beer. Well not to Michelle.
It looks like beer. It tastes like beer. We have beer!
I’m really happy that our beer turned out to be…beer. I was really afraid we were going to have some skunky concoction that we were going to have to dump or use to polish chrome. We’ve only had a small taste thus far, but we can put it to the test this new year’s eve and see if it does what it’s supposed to do. Get me drunk.
The Family Guy crew has done such a great job with the first two of the series. I can’t wait to see this third one. I hope they never make Episodes 1-3 though. They’re too terrible to spoof.
I promise to be the best uncle possible, and not the creepy uncle that lives in a van with no windows in the alley behind the record store. I’ve even started to prepare for my first talk with niece on an important subject that you can never have too early in a child’s life.
The fact that LEGO has expanded beyond just the simple square blocks I grew up with a kid is incredible, but the franchise they’ve created by doing computer graphic based videos is amazing. Here’s a film based off of their CG characters and involving Star Wars no less. It also doesn’t hurt that they make Jar Jar Binks a total loser, what he really was in the actual Star Wars movies.
I heard Dr. Drew almost vomited three separate times during the screening. How is that possible for a doctor that has seen just about everything? I’m a little bit scared to see it. Who wants to see it with me? While I am afraid of losing my lunch during the movie, there’s something about a train wreck such as this that intrigues me.
That is why I also love Japanese game shows. People who are willing to put themselves into harm’s way for entertainment purposes always get a thumbs up from me. Take, for instance this Japanese game show. From what I can gather the stairs are covered in lube and the big bin at the top has hot water in it.
So who wants in? I mean on the movie, not the stairs of lube.
I would like to stop and take a moment to congratulate my buddy Chris Marrs Piliero for winning the Breakthrough Video category for this year’s MTV VMA’s. It’s an awesome video and you deserve this award.
Two days before my birthday is Harrison’s birthday. Harrison is one of my best buddies and a Los Angeles Wedding Photographer. You can check out his own recent engagement on the website. To celebrate his 30th birthday we went camping at Malibu Creek State Park.
Here are the Boy Scouts working to put a tent up. Harrison is earning his hipster merit badge.
I thought we were going to do this all weekend.
I got a Gorillapod for my birthday, and this is my first use of it. This is what it’s like to be my beer bottle.
Instead we were tricked into going on a hike.
Blue skies over golden fields of fuel for the next fire.
Boooooooooring!
Men cooking meat over the fire.
Hanging out by the fire.
Roasting marshmallows over the fire is a must for camping.
My birthday celebration spilled over into Harrison’s a little bit. These light sabers proved to be great lanterns.
Michelle threw a surprise birthday party for my 30th birthday. I use the term “surprise” loosely. We are good at the communication thing, so we know what the other is up to most of the time. I knew something was going down. I just kept my nose out of her business the best I could, because I knew she wanted to do something special. The day of the birthday I knew Michelle needed time to prep things in the apartment, so I told her I’d go out for some drinks for a couple of hours.
Two hours is a long time, and a lot of whiskey can be consumed in that time. I walked back to my apartment with a note on the door that read, “Sit down and play the DVD.” My first thought was, “She got me porn for my birthday!” Nope. What I got was way cooler! In my intoxicated excitement I do drop the F-bomb at least once in the video, so play at your own risk.
Yes, Michelle got my friends to dress up in masks and parade around my living room with light sabers! That’s just the start. It kept getting better and better!
Why is that Clone Trooper giving the Star Trek “live long and prosper” sign?
Everything was Star Wars, right down to the plates.
After eating some food and having some beers, we walked over to Backstage to do some drinking and karaoke, but there were more surprises in store for me there.
“Help me Obi-Wan Kenobi! You’re my only hope.” Yes, this is my birthday cake! Be jealous little kids!
Let me show you again. This is my birthday cake. R2-D2! Red Velvet R2-D2.
I wish I had more photos from my birthday, but six Jameson on the rocks before dinner and the party begins will make you forget to take your camera and other details throughout the night. I am waiting for some more photos to come from friends that had cameras during the night. I’m still debating whether to post my karaoke video, because I drank A LOT. I scream the F-Bomb at the beginning of the song, and then it goes downhill from there.
Michelle really outdid herself this time. I definitely don’t feel old after having a birthday party like this. I love it! You can bet she’s going to get the best Avatar surprise birthday party next time around.
Hello, there. My name is Matt, but on this website I just refer to myself as m@. I love all things Star Wars, food, beer, and music, especially The Beatles. I'm one who likes to be noticed and will sometimes say or do inappropriate things to get your attention. I'm perfectly complimented by my online and real life partner Michelle.
What I'm Doing...
