Greetings and salutations Bitches,
Well after leaving my bachelor party up to William's, I have for the last few months received many very good suggestions from Federer. 1) Tiajuana 2) A small town in Mexico 3) Etc. Adam, I appreciate the suggestions and the effort but remember this is Portillo-2007, not circa 2003. So I have a suggestions for all to contribute to.
Snowboarding boys trip. I am thinking we do New Mexico. I would prefer you all coming to California so we could do mammoth, but I know how you all roll and figure that less likely. Flights to New Mexico from DFW and San Antonio are 200 hundi round trip. Chi-town is more like 300 round trip, but fortunately, williams is pretty rich.
Other pluses with new mexico include 1) They have casinos with craps 2) The lift tickets are cheaper than colorado or cali 3) We can rent a multi bedroom condo for the weekend off craigslist for a good deal (I have checked) and 4) I have hella cousins in New Mexico so we will have the hook up.
Thoughts?

This could be the best GD trip in the history of the IC.
Thats what I think.
I like your enthusiasm diablo. But I do not like your lack of information. If this trip was not being discussed, when would you be returning home?
The truth is I don't know. I thought I was going to be staying till May, but after my pub closed down I am very low on money and London is wicked expensive. So, basically whenever I run out of money. Which in realty is now.
I have a $750 check for you friend!
I like the idea and I rarely miss a trip, so just set a weekend and Im there homedog.
No chance there will be snow in early june is there?
So here's what we have so far.
1)Weiss is down
2)Bear is down
3)Brown is out
4)Lubahn has a check for 750
5)C-Bone out
6)Faust "curious"
7)Williams poor
8)Miller in (you have no choice)
9)Mazur, sillent
nothing is better than getting drunker than 10 indians other than getting drunker than 10 indians with indians around you while skiing down a mountain & running into a tree while screaming geronimo.

Life is good when you've got a couple of j birds, a flask and good company at the top of a mountain.
Getting down...now that can get ugly.
Quick story - I was doing exactly as stated above during my first snowboarding adventure. Afterwards 3 newbies (myself included....I have still only skied a handful of times) decided that it would be a good idea to race down the hill....this turned out to be a fairly bad decision.
The run was basically one big turn and then straight down hill with a few small turns at the bottom.
We had been taught the basics of snnowboarding about 45 minutes before by our 6-7 buddies who come every week.
We all get going....side note we had literally just learned to weave back and forth to slow down the run before....everyone is doing well....then we hit the corner and start looking at each other as a decision had to be made....balls out or vagina?
1 guy vaginas, leans to weave and slow down and immediately plants his face into the snow...hilarious, but we had to concentrate as we were about 1/4 into this massive turn that we had decided to take straight up.
Now going close to warp speed we have made the corner with several ..oh f@!# moments.....only to realize that we are going 400 mph straight down the hill...nope, not good
My buddy decides that as the "A" students during our weave session we can do this, so he starts to lean and I fully expect that he will immediately fall and lose his left leg.....he doesn't... he nails his first lean and cuts across the slope, but in his arrogance he forgets that he has to turn back now going 375 mph.....nearing the edge of the designated "ski" area he realizes it's time.....he shifts his weight to turn and all hell breaks loose....all I see is a roadside bomb go off and he's gone
I immediately look forward to see the snow patrol perched on the side of the hill and moving up towards my surely dismembered friend... I pass them like a flash of light..taking time to show them a look that I might die on their watch today.....one of the patrols breaks off to follow me
Seeing this I decided that it was time to let go...I wished my family fairwell and shifted my weight....you guessed it, going 447 mph and trying to turn as an amatuer boarder is not a good decision.
I hit my head instantly...blacked out and woke up with snow all around me...it was like being trapped in one of those little snow globes....it was actaully quite pleasant ....then I hear "Can you move....Are you ok?".....Yep, ski patrol
Only damage sustained was a puncure wound in the side due to a broken pipe that cut through my jacket.....and my board was about 14 miles down the slope.
Let's do this,

Wow. I saw lubahn posted and thought, "This is going to be stupid". But reading that just got me so pumped. FYI - I have only gone snowboarind twice but am hooked. I can think of nothing more fun that racing yall's bitch asses down the bunny slopes, then shanking lubahn with a rusty pipe.
Wow. I am positive that Lubahn NEVER wrote that many words in school. And definitely not as eloquently. Brilliant story and points for a nice road side bomb metaphor.
I may be in London, but I will not miss this trip. I have snowboarded for 10 minutes and was so horrific I switched back to skis. I am ready to take the snowboarding plunge. I can already hear Lubahn cackling at my misfortune. I am positive I will break no less than 3 bones.
Lubahn, the first paragraph of that post is hillarious.
Needing the IC soon...
Lubahn, you've never made laugh so hard. Head down on keyboard.
I'm in fo sure. Will up the Credit Card balance two-fold. Fuck it. These are my boys and I just don't care. My novel will pay off my debts any damn way.
PS - I'm going to rock life as a snowboarder.
