I've mentioned before I have an unnatural affinity for Wienerschnitzel.  Unfortunately I have to put up with the dregs of Mr. Happy (and no Tastee Freeze) at the nearest branch (see http://www.yelp.com/bi...), or put up with the absolute incompetence…More »

My wife and daughter were taking ski lessons for a day, so we rented ski clothes for them here.  Everybody was super friendly and helpful.  And they are well located between the two ski areas for convenience.

Wow, I've never encountered a hotel that couldn't accommodate an early check-in, but shit, I guess they do exist!  Oh well, check in is at 4 and we're here at 3 (plus a 20 minute wait in line to get to the front desk.)  Fuggit, we got shit to do in…More »

Yummity yum yum yum!  My wife was pissing and moaning about what the bill would be as we were putting together our order, but we were all blown away by the food.

I could duck a star because it did take a long time for the food to appear, but once it…More »

After a shitty morning of watching everyone else ski and getting sunscreen in my eye twice I needed an awesome lunch, and this was it!  A massive Rueben, a chocolate chip cookie, and lots of uncaffeinated Mug root beer (fuck you, Barq's!)

After splurging somewhat at Himalayan, we wanted some cheap, gooey, homey eats, and this place was perfect.  Salsa bar, horchata, and all the old standbys with rice and beans.  And Diana the waitress was yummy gorgeous too :p.

$10-$15 per person.  If…More »

Thanks to Yelp, another winner I would've never found on my own.  It's in the Stater Brothers shopping center.  I got a bbq sandwich with turkey on squaw bread and it was awesome - simple and tummy warming hot with just a hint of spice in the sauce.…More »

Yes, it exists!  It's in Canada!  Even though the employees of the airline that gets you there have never heard of it or know where it is!  This list is now expanded and complete now that Yelp discovered Canada.

Our weekend in Modesto, where I was playing the X Fest.

3.3 stars!  You can't fly across the country just to see Genesis at Giants Stadium.  You have to spend a few days doing other crap too!  Here's the other crap we did:

Our 12th Anniverary (6)

4 stars!  Most folks are lucky to be married twelve months, let alone years.  Dumb bastards!
