Most of this weekend was dedicated to the Dalt’s Reunion… For those of you who don’t know, Dalt’s was a restaurant in Burbank for about 20 years that I was a regular at and where I actually met my Ex-Wife.  People came from all around the country, we had a BBQ during the day Saturday and a party that night.  It was so great to see so many old friends (I was tagged in many photos, you can see them on my FB Page) and get caught up.  It was weird to sit in that room with people I have known 20+ years and think about all that has transpired in our lives in that time and how a diner in the Burbank media district brought us all together.  It was also strange for my kids to meet these people that were so involved my younger life and see the connection we have… It was like finding out your Dad had a secret life.  I never thought all those years ago, sitting at the bar having drinks that two decades later we would be sitting around a pool with all our kids sipping ice tea and sharing stories.  It was a really great experience.

Still no word from The O.C. Fair, so I’m assuming they don’t want us… Well we will just plan our own event, we don’t need fried Oreos and Weird Al to have a good time!

A “mancation“, really!?!?  Magically stuck.   What a clown.   This is sad and weird… I have my suspicions about the Fiance?  Geeks gone wild.  Being called “four eyes” might not be a bad thing.   And he’s has money waiting for him there!

Rock On, jack

I like these short weeks!

I know I’ve mentioned it many times, but today (again) there is a good Groupon for those of you in the I.E…. $20 for unlimited games at Gameworks (Click the above link, it’s one of the side deals posted to the right).  I have bought many of the deals on the site and they really help you have more affordable family fun… in fact I’m going to use the mini-golf passes I bought next week with the kids!

Last night was Wipeout night.. which means I was fully distracted during the podcast (Sorry).  I want Stench and I to audition for their “Couples” show… We would rule!

O.C. Fair starts in a week and a half…  I hit them up today to see if they would be interested in having us back out again?  I’ll let you know what they say.  Lots of good bands playing the fair this year: Train, Orainthi, Ziggy Marley, Ratt and The B-52′s to name a few.

The kids are all fired up to see Dispicable Me this weekend… I want to see it too, although, at least in the previews, it  bugs me that Steve Carrell kind of sounds like Mike Myers.

That’s a good day!  It’s mullet madness.  Don’t wear high heels if you’re pregnant!  Checkmate.   Check out this game.  It only took 27 years to work this out.   It’s a real race.   Your horn is dope!   Bad kitty! Are you hung like a squid!?!?

Rock On, Jack
