Tomorrow is September.  HOLY SHIT!



capt dingdong/what a week

Aug 31st, 2007 | By chewy

This last week has been pretty weird. Monday I was at work until about 10pm with Andrew because he was prepping his cyclocross bike for the upcoming winter commuting months. I gave him a ride home in the Mobile Van since he had 2 bikes here. We had a beer or two [...]



when in Rome, pt. 2

Aug 31st, 2007 | By chewy

My sister is in Egypt. She’ll be there for a year, and I hope to go visit her while she’s there. She’s only been there for a couple weeks, if that, but it would seem that my 10 or 11yr old niece (I don’t know her age cuz I’m a shitty uncle) is [...]



douche bag

Aug 31st, 2007 | By chewy

I’ve been using the term ‘douche bag’ a lot lately in my emailings to and from friends. I’ve come to realize/notice that while the various auto spell-checkers don’t seem to like my last name, they are absolutely fine with the term ‘douche bag’.
So that got me to thinking. And after enough thought, I [...]

Aug 27th, 2007 | By chewy

My friends Brent and Kate had a little chitlin the other day. Ruby Maximus Excelsior Medusa Neville Hinson (I THINK that was her full name??!!?!) jumped out of Kate’s nether regions fully formed, like Athena, and is now a construction worker downtown. Check it out!
I went over there to see her last week.  [...]



complete bullshit

Aug 22nd, 2007 | By chewy

You know what’s total and utter fucking bullshit?  My friends.  Not all of them, just MOST of them.  Which ones, you ask?  How about Mark, Aaron, Dave, Shanna, Dave, Dave, Kristi, some other ones, and now Brent.  Why are they so full of shit?
Cuz they have kids.
Mind you, I don’t mind kids.  In fact, I [...]



spice it up

Aug 22nd, 2007 | By chewy

Today I was on the phone with a vendor, asking them for product information and whatnot.  I placed an order for a pair of bike lights, and at the end, when all of the business had been conducted, the nice lady on the other end of the phone asked, “Is there anything else I can [...]



when in Rome…

Aug 16th, 2007 | By chewy

Have you ever been out of place? Stranger in a strange land? What do you do? As the saying goes, “When in Rome, do as the Romans do.”
So why do some folks from other cultures still try to haggle with you when they’re in America? If I go to their homeland, [...]



okay, okay…I completely suck

Aug 14th, 2007 | By chewy

Oh…there are a number of reasons that ChewyKolchuk.com truly sucks. Let me enumerate just a few of those ways…

There are a couple of people who actually read this site. I know that Dave Pearson and Jason Thompson are those two people because they are the ones who email me and say to quit [...]
