tiger, listen to your ad...

In the airport today, this sight kind of made me chuckle.... It's an ad with Tiger and it reads, "it's what you do next that counts." This Accenture ad just took on a whole new meaning.

cookie stop


I'm glad whenever I make a stop at home, that the Cookie Trolley makes a stop too. This cookie jar at the Youngquist home is more classic than Coca-Cola. The Cookie Trolley is a great sight to see, it warms my heart.

worthy sticker...

Today I spotted the indian shooting the star... free tootsie pop, right?

If I were to put a sticker on my car, it seems like this one would be worthy.

random thought o' 4-Slyce

I was in the store and heard a beautiful ringtone from someone's cellphone. I couldn't help but wonder if there will be a "Best Ringtone Composition" category in the Grammys someday...

techno coffee

Who needs coffee when you have Sirius channel 38...? (a radio station that plays techno 24/7) This song really got me ready for the day as I drove to work at 6 in the morning last friday.

interesting political news

Ever since visiting Washington D.C. for my first time, when I hear about Obama or other political issues on the news... I've been paying more attention. I think the tour of the Capitol and seeing congress in session really did something to me.

Going up the Washington Monument reminded my a lot of the Eiffel Tower. In the picture you can see the Washington D.C. temple way back there on the horizon (above the White House and a little to the left).

The trip was great. It was a pretty complete trip; from a Nationals game to museums to a Chuck Brown concert to memorials to Colonial 1st ward to the metro to seeing friends/cousin to eating at Kabob Palace to going to the DC temple... Click here for more pics.

I needed a more uplifting post after the last post, as BYU let Lance and all of us down by losing to Florida State... Here's a great video hot of the press...

Lance picked it...

Lance picked BYU over FSU on ESPN College GameDay. It's going to be a sweet game.

crazy colorado weekend

We did a roadtrip to Colorado to cheer on Lance Armstrong in the Leadville Trail 100 and bike on the highest paved road in North America.

We got to Leadville, CO around 1:30AM and slept in the car before the 6:30AM race.

We saw the man up close and personal. Russell even carried on a brief conversation with him... "hey lance, we drove from utah and slept in our car last night...." Lance replied, "Cool, cool. Why didn't you bring any [stinkin'] sun with you..." He smoked us on his bike going up this hill. Enjoy this lame video summing up the race (and yes, that is me trying to run along Lance 1:15 in the video):





Lance inspired us so much that we decided to bike up the highest paved road in North America...

mr. steger

While at a Subway in Ely, MN, my Dad started up a conversation with a stranger and introduced me to Will Steger (he's big time). I shook hands with this famous man. My Dad has skills of spotting famous people (this trait may be in the genes) and sometimes he just spots people that he mistakes for being famous. Dad had his A-game on this day.

maybe when I'm 97 years old...

...I'll get my first hole-in-one. In this riveting video clip, John Pepe looks so comfortable in front of the camera. He's probably a really good story teller too.
