I am going to begins today’s blog with a call for help. Dylan Willow‘s GF Jacquelyn is trying to help an organization raise $10,000 to build a school in Africa. She asked me to find 10 people that want to give $10 for the cause.
Please take a quick sec and pledge $10 right here: Help Build a School

I thought this was pretty cool. Trolling the doubleUdoubleUdots today, I saw an interesting fact. Only four independent bands in the history of Billboard’s modern rock chart have ever reached number 1.
The Offspring – “Self Esteem” (1994)
Everlast – “What Its Like” (1998)
Silversun Pickups – “Panic Switch” (2009)
Phoenix – “1901” (2010)
I don’t know if Billboard has updated their chart or what, but they are still showing them at number 2 despite this news article to the contrary. Maybe I got the wrong chart?

I know we should be thinking winter Olympics in this part of the world… but with the weather so nice, I can’t help but look ahead to baseball season.
Our local pro team is the Victoria Seals and in their second season they will begin by playing the new expansion team from Maui.
The Victoria Baseball Blog had a look at their new jerseys. I am not so much a fan, but David Eleanor seemed to like.
ahhh, I don’t know… But I do know I’d love if we could organize a Zone road trip to Maui…
Go with yourself.

If you remind me on the 15th, I’ll throw $20 to the Hot Doggers. I’m mucho broko till then, though.
I really (still) liked ‘What it’s like’ and The Offspring’s Smash is my go-to work out album – I used to run and do abs, listening to it. Maybe I should start that up, again. Cept I need a discman for it. Do those still exist?
I like the font, and color scheme..but the name and logo are the pits. When you win the lottery, and buy a team that we put in Kelowna, the “Ogopogo’s” we’re going to have classic, yet modern jersey’s. I’m thinking a stylized big letter “K” on the caps in deep blue.
