Keith I see your Bus rider of the week and raise you a Father and Kids!

"Who's my little hornet?"

What is that on his right leg ??? It resembles the Mickey's Malt liquor logo

A Closer look . . . it is a tattoo of the Mickey's Logo!

It might not be as bad as this One (ok not a 1 but a dunk) or this One
(please check out the source of the last one 40ozmaltliquor.com )

Still, any corporate tattooing especially without getting paid for the advertisement is a PLC (Poor Life Choice) in my mind.

Rocky Mountain High . . . PLC 3 Crowd Conducting

I'm visiting some family and friends in the Mile High City (Denver) for this holiday weekend. It's the 4th of July & what better way to celebrate other than America's past time . . . baseball. We got tickets to the Rockies vs. Marlins game in the cheap / rowdy "Rockpile" area.

These are the bleacher seats out in center field where everybody just gets drunk and yells at the umpires. For some reason if you mix a little too much alcohol with some people they become the center of attention. Which brings me to my 3rd PLC (poor life choice) . . . crowd conducting!



I wasn't sure if it was funnier to watch this guy try to lead cheers for 30-40 min strait or to listen to everybody heckle him. At the end of his conducting he even went soo far as to take pictures of the crown behind him like they were his students. Basically nobody listened to him, he kept getting frustrated with the crowd, and I'm surprised that he wasn't taken out with a half drank cup of beer.


Baseball analysts always say it is easier to hit homeruns in Coors Field due to it's altitude and thin air.


Overall a very long game but exciting . . . almost got hit by one of the multiple home run balls, the Rockies won in a dramatic come from behind in the bottom of the 9th, and I saw my first in person Grand Slam. Later at the bar I saw on t.v. that ESPN stated this was only the 3rd time ever that both teams scored 17 runs each in a normal 9 inning game.



The good thing about our seats (other than the 50yr old cheerleaders) was that they were in one of 3 sections which got to go down on the field to watch the post game fireworks. Something about them being worried about falling debris from the fireworks in those 3 sections.


Me, my cousin, and her roommate on the field waiting for the fireworks. . . Major league grass is so plush.



I'll leave you with the grand Finale . . . America Yeah!

PLC2 . . . Bad Biznus Decision

How bad does your establishment have to be doing before you deiced to stimulate business by putting up a "We take food stamps" sign? As a business owner I have to say this is a Poor Life Choice. What type of customers are you attracting? And doesn't the "We take food stamps" sign contradict the "No public restrooms" sign.






Sidenote:One of my favorite things about Portland is the bridges. While the traffic sucks the view of commuting over the Ross Island bridge everyday to and from work makes it all worth while.

PLC . . . Poor Life Choices

I just got back from a trip to the Oregon coast/beach with a couple friends. On the car ride home I heard my new favorite term that I will be adding to my usual vocab. It also made me think of a new blog topic I will be occasionally covering. We already critique Fashion choices . . . why not critique Life Choices?

PLC (or Poor Life Choice) is a term that is used to describe a stupid decision you make that could have a detrimental effect on your life. More than just an accident or mishap; examples could be having a party and getting ticketed for serving minors . . .

This was mentioned when one of my friends ran into a guy she used to "date" at the beach, and she stated "He was really a PLC."

So I bring to you my new Blog Topic: PLC's

PLC 1: Right near the beach . . . boy!



Drinking, Sunbathing, and parenting . . . at the same time!


Oh if babies could talk "Thanks for taking me to the beach mom . . . all the girls at day care loved my new tan . . . OK sunburn and future skin cancer!" This lady was 100% passed out already 2 cans of CL deep and her baby was getting a little crimson. Child protective services . . . ?

I somehow feel the need to e-mail this to Jeff Foxworthy as it would make a great "You might be a redneck joke" punchline . . . the fact that it actually encompasses getting a red neck . . . ,too good to be true




All in all the beach was a good time . . . maybe a little excessive drinking but no PLC's on my part!

2:15 pm shots all around!




Side note:
A couple weeks old . . . Brought to you from Starbucks on 35th and Powell . . . Keith & Ira here is My new excuse when I don't want to take out the trash at home.
