When it gets hot, turn on the AC





Everyone has bad days. Horrible drivers, incompetent dry cleaning ladies, and obnoxious squat rack guy, all make life less bearable. But when I really need relief from life's toils, I know it's time to get my Slayer on. For those of you who don't know, Slayer is a pioneering thrash metal band known for their zany lyrics and good natured songs that cover timeless themes such as serial killers, genocide and everyone's favorite-insanity.


Conversely, on the brighter side of the entertainment spectrum, existed a show that epitomized both cheese and optimism. Even when I was in third grade, I remember thinking that this Saved by the Bell show was over-the-top in its bright, campy humor and outlook.

So when I discovered that some freak of nature genius, some over achiever, some type of cultural revolutionary had had the foresight and skill to meld the two forces of good and evil together like some type of warm cuddly blanket that you just want to pull over your head and submerse yourself in your hours, I almost lost it, and you will too.

Behold------ visual manna brought to us from the Gods of Good Taste.



The NEW AC SLAYER

Tough as nails


About two years ago, Candice and I were the recipients of an amazing gift- 2 bungee jumps at one of worlds highest bungee jump sites.  It's about 450 ft jump over the Nevis river in New Zealand.  Candice was genuienly freaked out as most people would be.  Her body language and facial expressions before the jump were priceless.  At the end of the day, she faced her fears and actually loved every second of the jump, it's just the anticipation that's the killer.  Seems like most things in life are the same way.  Enjoy the vid and a special thanks to the McDonalds for such a rad gift.

The Jones' "keeping up"


We're officially bloggers - its' about time!  So to keep you up on the latest and greatest in our lives we have to introduce you to our new favorite shop(pe).  It actually is called The Shoppe and appropriately combines animee, cereal and baked goods, www.theshoppedenver.com - an excellent relief for your late night cravings of sugar and design.   I prefer the lemon cupcake with the jelly filling, while Matt in his adventuresome spirit has ventured to try the coconut, red velvet, and oreo variations.  Doesn't seem like you can go wrong!
