HAPPY HALLOWEEN!

GO PARTY!

For Your Viewing Pleasure

Two days ago my buddy Collin H. showed me this video and it pretty much blew my mind.

Enjoy!

Those were the days

Soooooo, Kelly's last post has inspired me to ask some questions. Here at Brohio, we believe in the increasingly fading phrase "Big Pants, Big Stance."

With that being said, I am about to quit snowboarding so that i can step in to some skis. Remember when snowboarding was like this??

Bored

I got out of class an hour early so i now have a hour until my next class begins, I have no homework to do and I've all ready browsed the entire internet (Newschoolers, Facebook, Mail, and TWsnow) So I decided I might as well update the blog.
Well this past Saturday I caught a pretty burly cold/fever and it got real gnarly on Sunday, I took off to wallmart and picked up a pretty large assortment of medicine with hopes of getting rid of this sickness ASAP. It's now Wednesday and im pretty sure im just about done with it, my nose just wont seem to stop running but it beats nonstop coughing and hot and cold temperatures.
My medicine of choice for this illness was definitely Nyquil

So hopefully I'll be back to full health by tomorrow and ready for the weekend.
It looks like Wild Mountain will not be opening this weekend which is a HUGE bummer, so now im forced to find a Halloween costume and wait even longer to go skiing.
As of right now my costume choices are as follows:
A Bash Bro (Mighty Ducks)
A Bro
A Vampire
or perhaps I could resurrect the Trickin' Chicken...
Who knows.

Either way it really needs to just start snowing so Brule can open. I don't know how much longer i can make it with no snow.
Now watch this and pray for snow!

Short Shorts Shenanigans 5 Recap

Can you point out everything awesome in this picture?

First off, big thanks to Jordan, Rob and Quinn for holdin it down with a banger sss5. I gotta admit that we slacked a little bit and threw it all together the last 2 days before the party but as always, short shorts shenanigans came through with full house and $130 richer. A few stats before we get into the pics:

3 kegs (props to Kells and I. Thanks to everyone who threw down to have a good time.)
0 Police officers
3 Trophies given away
1 chant that booed people wearing pants out of the house
18 hours (give or take a few) of Dave drinking
1 beer soaked robe that couldn't seem to stay on his body, neither could his pants
25 dollars for a moncle that Dave broke before the party started
1 broken window, also via Dave, also before the party
70-80 cups sold (estimate of course)
1 missing tap
4 dudes that Dave gave hickies to
5 dollars some kid got to fill up Ben's cup
5th annual short shorts shenanigans
unknown amt of weiner that Dave palmed

I mentioned Dave had been drinking for 18 hours right?Dave won Gayest Dude! Congratualations on your self-proclaimed 3rd year in a row! You look thrilled!
Yea thats how we feel about Emma too. hahahaLittle group photo. Thank you Dean for your guest appearance. I like your Labatt hat/shirt combo.
I don't know what I was doing all night but this is the only picture of me. And damn I look good. Thats Moseley hangin around my neck, you were there with us in spirit my friend.This is the only picture of Kelly as well.. I don't know what he was doing but you can tell by the looks of him that he was doing something right. Way to dip out like hours before the party ended..
Dave looks old enough to be ALL of our dads
1st place! Thanks for coming to sss5 on your last weekend in the U.P. Cody



Ok.. Now we are about to get into some of the gayest pictures I have ever seen. All these men are straight. Short shorts just got the best of them on this night.
hahaha I told you he couldn't keep his pants on
yep.. told you..
I love Jimmy for driving all the way to Marquette from Texas to participate in some Shenanigans
If there was a trophy for best pose, I would give it to this

Well thats all I have for now. Hopefully we can find some more awesome pictures to get up here soon. In closing, five years of short shorts and not one has been busted. Thank you to everyone who made it possible and everyone who was willing to dress up and feel real uncomfortable. Thank you to Dave for providing entertainment all day long before the party began. Thanks to Emma for most of these pics that I stole from you. And remember, only 358 days until sss6.

You know your house is cold when...

Turns out Jimbo was not lying about it being super cold in our house. Yesterday i went downstairs to wash a couple dishes when i came across this...

Yup, frozen dish soap...

So after a few more hours of walking around the house in winter jackets and huddling around candles we decided to turn on the heat! Now were sitting at a cozy 60 degrees and it feels AMAZING!

2 more days till the weekend!

Stay tuned.

4 Teeth Down.

7:30AM came around and my trusty alarm clock went off, I did not have much to do since i was unable to eat or drink anything 6 hours prior to surgery. I threw on some comfy clothes waited for my mom to get ready and then we were off. We arrived at the office and I was the first patient of the day.
The nurse opened the door and called my name, I took my seat and told her "let's get this over with" she then asked me if I had any questions where I then asked for my teeth when they were done but due to some lame insurance laws she said it was a health risk to let me bring them home...
After that disappointment I was then hooked up to an IV where i remember thinking, this is probably going to be the last thing I remember, which it was. Now im not sure if this really happened or if i woke up for a second or two but it seems like i remember seeing and hearing the doc pulling out my bottom right tooth and thinking "shit i gotta fall back asleep". Then when I officially woke up I was stoked that i wasn't in pain and that it was all over with. I rolled out of the office in a wheel chair and hopped into my mothers car looking a little somthin' like this...

Yea nice kid...

Then I got home and had a totally numb lower lip, tong and roof of my mouth which made it real hard to drink water without getting half of it on my shirt. A whole lot of drooling took place today...

Action Shot!

That one touched the ground!

They bled for about 4 hours so I had to swap out the gauze quite a few times which was anything but fun...

Bloody Gauze... not the Woman's bathroom...(i think i just made myself puke in my mouth)

I was real excited once my mouth finally decided to stop bleeding cause i was getting pretty hungry. So i had my first of many gourmet meals for the day. Starting with mashed potatoes, then moving to easy mac.

Nothing like swallowing some easy mac whole.

FROSTY!

I made sure to keep icing my face with hopes that it will make for a quicker recovery so I looked like this for the majority of the day...

I'd say it's a good look.

Overall i was pretty stoked with how little pain there has been so far, I know alot of people say the 2nd and 3rd day are pretty ruff but if thats the case atleast I've got a full bottle of pills as well as a full season of Fantasy Factory to watch. I'll be sure to update again tomorrow but heres where im sitting at now...

Square face kelly.

Well im off to bed so hopefully i can get a good nights sleep and not wake up in too much pain.
Have a goodnight kids!

The Last Day With All of My Teeth

On Wednesday Oct. 7th Mary and I headed down state to my home, Grand Rapids. I have an appointment to get my wisdom teeth pulled out on Friday so Mary agreed to being my chauffeur for the ride home on Sunday. The drive home went really well and we managed to only make one stop, their was a lot of story telling and Mary even managed to slip in a few country tracks.
When we arrived to my house Mary got to meet the fam, then we ate some Chinese food and decided to rent a movie and call it a night. We watched "the Haunting in Connecticut" which did a good job of scaring the 2 of us.
When we woke up the next morning we quickly headed out and began to do some shopping. We had to take a quick break so that i could go get a pre examination and a full rundown on what my surgery will consist of.

This is the building I will soon loose 4 teeth to.

As soon as that was over Mar and I headed over to Chipotle to slay some delicious food(and to make Jimbo jealous).

Behold Chipotle in all it's glory.

Now that we had full stomachs it was time to do some more shopping so we headed over to the Woodland Mall.

And we got to work...

Mary doing what she does best.

A job well done.

The good ol' 4 for 20 tall-tee deal.

Then after shopping and one last good dinner with the family I took Mary over to GVSU so she could go meet up with some of her friends and party the night away.
In about 7 hours I will be knocked out cold getting my teeth pulled out. Hopefully it's not too bad. I'll try to get as many picks of the carnage as possible so stay tuned!

catch ya later.

Ahh the Up Front

Well let's see, friday night we ended up having a surprise guest...

or three... Including Dave and Cody!

And after getting chocked out by Jimbo i knew my night could only get better...

Is it weird that Jimbo is so happy in this picture?

Once I finally got my breathing back to a steady rate the first thing i remember is Dave saying, "Let's go to the Up Front! I'll cover your cover!"

How could one say no!?

So we strolled down the street and entered the bar, which was not an easy task for me... after handing the bouncer my trusty ID i was forced to recite my address, state my middle name, spell my middle name, smile, state my birthday, and sign a piece of paper... after i finally stumped the bouncer i was let in and it was time to PARTY.

I think we were one shot down when we met this character...

After a silent conversation (and a few more shots) he turned into this!...

Best Friends!

After a few more shots and maybe a mixed drink or two Cody and I decided to claim out title as the best dancers of the night. We had to battle a very worthy opponent... But we came out on top with a flawless victory! So another drink was in order!

Redbull...Vodka...Delicious.

Even bears enjoy this drink.

After this point things might have gotten a little foggy but thanks to my trusty camera I know we ran into Jess.

Business man

I promise I didn't photoshop jess into this pic.

Then it looks like ben got stuck with two drinks...

WHOOPS!

Which led to some male bonding...

Oh look! it's THAT GUY!

Let's see, pretty much the last thing I remember is taking a flaming Dr. Pepper and since the bartender said here ya go! i figured she wanted me to take the glass and shot glass home as a souvenir... which i might have done. So i took the uphill walk back to the house and called it a night.

According to reliable sources the other members of the team continued to party until close to 6a.m.

Either way it was a great night! so thank you Dave and Cody for the Hundreds of dollars you dropped that night (this is not a lie).

I'm off to bed, so until next time...

-Kells

P.S. I'm getting my wisdom teeth pulled this coming friday so be sure to keep checkin the blog for a full play by play of the carnage.
