Skiing! I went skiing today, it was so fun.

Well, I did stand on line, like, a lot.

It’s ski season! Check out this photo gallery from today’s opening day @Arapahoe_Basin http://t.co/QZ4G5eWBNC pic.twitter.com/aPmRmmkp6h

That’s what a nice loud bluetooth speaker is for! Some of the younger folk were really digging on the Captain Beefheart.

I went skiing today. It was a marvelous opportunity to say weird funny shit to strangers and play them some Captain Beefheart on my speaker.

And…

Oh, and while I was skiing today, I saw something for the first time, a man wearing Google Glass.

This dude had Red White and Blue K2 skis so I slid up to him and said to him “I am America and so can you! MURKA!” He looked up at me, clearly not amused. That’s when I noticed he was wearing Glass. First time I’ve ever seen the device in person. He didn’t say anything to me, and just skied away. I don’t think that dude was having much fun.

Anyhow, the price was right. I won two free lift tickets last night on Twitter and I was among the first folks to go skiing in North America for the 2014/15 winter.

.@Freeskier Thanks for the tickets today! Other than almost getting taken out by a snowboarder and that stupid snowball fight, I had fun!
