SHIT YEAH!!!

Want to see one of the tops in all the land?!?!?! Of course you do. I mean...pay no mind to the wacky Brit in the getup, you know those English sort, but Muse really is the SHIT!! And it's new Muse to boot!!! Why, I couldn't be happier if you told me Pearl Jam had new music out!!!

The Toast's "Backspacer" review to come shortly.

Toastmaster General = Super Engaged!!

This just in, I don't update my blog very often for some reason and I asked Kool-Aid to marry me. After much convincing she hesitantly agreed...JACKPOT!!!

"When something's broke, I want to put a little fixin' on it."

For what it's worth, think I like the riff from "Got Some" a little better. Still, this new stuff appears none to shabby. What kills me is when I read some of the comments in regards to newer Pearl Jam beats and how it's not the same; not "grunge". These boys were never "grunge". A classic rock band in a modern era, hmmm...now we're getting somewhere. Take a look at yourself!!

"You'll wait with the star from a dream and know that I am gone. You'll feel it in your heart but not for very long."

A little off of Wilco's new self titled album, sweet Jebus are they great. Oh yeah, sorry for recent bout with non-posting but I kinda got laid off, well about two weeks ago. Really, it's no big deal. Actually it's kind of a good thing, a god send if you will. Plus I get to spend a crazy amount of time with Tessie Girl, aged five months now. (See Below)

In any event, this post is not about layoffs or sweet sweet Tessie Girl. It is about the sheer awesomeness of Wilco.



Yeah!

Mutha Fuckin' Ireland: Kilkenny, Cashel, and Blarney

So, when I go about doing things like uploading pictures, I upload the shit out of 'em. This isn't all the photos from our trip to Ireland, hell some of them aren't even that good. All that I know is that I just took my sweet ass time putting them on my computer and then took even longer to get them to my ever so masssive internet audience. So, without further ado, here are the pics of The Toast's trip to Ireland, with Kool-Aid in tow. Now, with even more small raccoon shots (I'll explain later)!!

Walking into central Kilkenny from our B&B.

Blaa...Blaa...Blaa...sandwiches!

Kilkenny Castle

St. Canice's Cathedral, Kilkenny

View of Kilkenny from atop tower at St. Canice's Cathedral

Kool-Aid and the Toast atop said tower

More Kilkenny

Even more Kilkenny

It's a long way to Tipperary. Kool-Aid and I used to live on Tipperary Hill in Syracuse, NY.

They have trees there too?!?!

Cashel, Co. Tipperary

Open till 17.30, when the shit is that???

Rock of Cashel

More Rock of Cashel

That's a rockin' Kool-Aid..HA!....sigh.

Well, certainly there's going to be a little showmanship.

My foist material possession, my stuffed raccoon Rocky also made the trip. Keep your eyes open for sighting.

Hore Abbey, Cashel, Co. Tipperary. This was right across the street from the Rock.

More Rock of Cashel

The view from the top of the hill

Imprisoned inside the Rock of Cashel. Watch out..that's one vicious coon!!!

Just some path that I liked that lead from Cashel to Hore Abbey

I crush your Abbey!

Kool-Aid and I doing what we do best, lookin' cute.

More Cashel

Cahir, Co. Tipperary

She's just so G.D. dorky.

Cahir Castle

Gratuitous action shot!

This castle was just sitting right in the middle of town in Cahir, like a Starbucks would here.

You wouldn't know it from the shot, but we's were drunk here. Last night in Kilkenny.

Blarney Castle, Blarney, Co. Cork. Home of the infamous Blarney Stone.

Blarney Castle

Blarney Castle

From inside Blarney Castle

Eh..it's a staircase, what of it?

Tree outside Blarney Castle. The whole grounds were pretty amazing.

A path..a path..

Cobh and the Dingle Peninsula

The village of Cobh, Co. Cork. (pronounce Cove)

I think Kool-Aid took this one. For all you purple flower fans out there.

Cobh

Cobh

St. Colman's Cathedral, Cobh.

Cobh was all hilly and shit, and our B&B was right on the top of said hills.

Had some beers here...niiiice.

Ladies and Gentlemen..welcome to the Dingle Peninsula (I wish that damn van didn't make the picture though)

Dingle, Co. Kerry

Kool-Aid feeding Fungie, the Dingle Dolphin our Ireland guide book.

This seems about right.

Our B&B in Dingle was a sheep farm. Once again, this seems about right.

Dingle Peninsula might very well have been the most beautiful place I've ever been. Take a ganders for yourself

Dingle

We basically drove around this 30 KM cliffside road, and this is what you saw.

See the rearview mirror??

More Dingle Coastline

Aforementioned Road

This path rolled you down a hillside ultimately to the beachy coast.

Rocky and I in cold-ass Atlantic Ocean water.

More Dingle Coastline

And again.

And again.
