Man's Weekend VI

Being the Man Olympics games official, I have some things that must be discussed and voted on:

  1. Lets make sure me get the winners of the Man Olmpics Right. Who won and what year and did they get a trophy or not. Is this correct: 1st year JDL won, 2nd year no games, 3rd year Landon (who created the Duke), 4th year JDL, 5th year NUMNUTS
  2. Kevin will you make the T-shirts? Bobby head printed them last year and I can get the design of last year to you. I think we should just replace the face and I think we should replace it with Teddy Roosevelt. Kevin you get bonus points for doing the T-shirt. You can also do a new one if you want.
  3. THE Games: (ones with asterisk beside them are definitely going to be done, the rest should be critiqued and voted on)
  • Greatest Mustache *
  • Completion of 30 days to a better man *
  • Log Toss *
  • Rock Toss *
  • Eating contest of a certain food, just for 1 hour
  • Guns
  • Quiz Event *
  • Design T-shirt for next year (this could be something you bring to Man's Weekend)
  • Wall Sits or Bow n Tows
  • Bow and Arrows or throwing stars/axes (we would find something to throw at targets)
  • Pissing Contest *
  • Bonus for jumping in the river
  • Creative Rap/Song for WOM
  • Hold Breath Underwater in the Tub
  • Biggest Pile of body hair created at the weekend.
  • Relay *
  • Best Belch (you only have one chance)
  • Most Manly Story from 2009
4. Brandon will be bringing a pipe collection for us all to smoke.
5. Justin, Andrew, and Landon prepare for worship Sunday morning.
6. I also thing we should have the manly gift exchange! $20 dollar limit - We will vote on the most manly gift which will factor in to the winner of the Duke.

Let the thoughts begin and decision be made

News...

I have it on good authority that there will be 9 people at WOM this year.

Good day, sirs.

Thoughts about Man's Weekend...

Seth and I were blasting our pecs today and talking about the gathering of manliness. Here's a few thoughts I had:
- Regarding meals, can different groups prepare different meals? Like if you did Saturday dinner, you have to do something different this time.
- Adam, I know the games are yours this year, had an idea of having an eating contest or tracking our weights to see who could lose or gain the most weight.
- I think I am going to camp out under the stars this year. If anyone would like to join me, I have room in the tent, as well as access to a second tent.
- Are guns back in this year? I assume so.
- What time will everyone be heading down to Paris?
- Do we have a film picked out this year?

In 30 days, I will be gathered with 8 other manly and burly men, and hopefully some of you will have a moustache. My heart is full to bursting, just like my bladder.

I quote this often

Katie has started playing Tetris on her iPod before bed, and I quote this almost every night.

Taking the Influence of Edna West

As most of you know, since the beginning of my family medicine residency I have wanted to do an extra year of training in sports medicine. In November I went on 10 interviews across the country at different programs and was very impressed by them all. Jenny and I spent quite a bit of time trying to figure out where we wanted to go.

Today was match day and we found out that we got our first choice and will be moving to Los Angeles in late June. Starting July 1st, I will be a fellow on the sports medicine staff and helping to take care of the UCLA athletes. I will be on the sidelines of home football games in the Rose Bowl and I will have a few teams that will call me their team doc.

We are both quite excited about this adventure in our life next year but it is a little crazy too. I hope some of you all will come out to visit! It's going to be a little warmer to visit then Columbia, Mo. Anyone want to come to Cali learn to surf???
