Last Weekend, Whenever: The Dirksen Derby 2017

Originally Published on Yobeat | December 23, 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcAwWRPHgF8 The 2017 Dirksen Derby is nothing but good vibes. Whether you spent December 15-17th complaining about back pain in the lodge, ripping around Mt. Bachelor, teaching your kids to stand on a snowboard, or actually trying to get a faster time than your friends, the 10th edition of the mostly-annual competition may just have been the best yet. Josh specifically designed the event to be fun for all. The course isn’t about survival, but rather pushing your own limits. If you make it down unscathed, you’re likely to think, “that was fun!” as opposed to other banked slaloms, where you’re just…

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xwVxwbZz8S8&feature=youtu.be If you know me, you know I love Tinder. It's more than a dating app, it's a hobby and a money maker (seriously!) My young protege Dickie Sweet put together this short epic with more.

Amateur Pet Photography

Since leaving the house is hard and rarely very rewarding, I've taken up the hobby of pet photography. It also helps that we have a pretty solid heard or creatures. So far the cats and the dog have their own instagrams, and it's only a matter of time before the chickens do as well (though I should leave that one up to Jared.) Anyway, if you love adorable things follow @willisandtyra and @thelemmygram for more photos like this, plus occasionally witty captions.

Get Your NASCAR Gear Here!

Because I really enjoy seeing if clueless PR people will come through on their promises, here's some completely irrelevant info for the people who came here 1) looking to get their Instagram unblocked or 2) that think I'm funny/interesting (there are way more of #1.) I believe this EXCITING info I received today was  aimed at Yobeat, but whatever. I work for a company called The Collectionary.  We are building the best place to go on the internet to find and buy items for avid collectors. One of the Collectionary's we have is for NASCAR! http://thecollectionary.com/club/nascar We would love to feature your blog on our NASCAR Facebook page with over…

MFNW Saves the Day!

While I'm admitting to being old and falling asleep at shows, I should also note I once feel asleep in the front row on an emo show. It was my friends' band, formerly Hijack the Disco, now known as HIJK, because Panic! at the Disco issued them a cease a desist. Anyway, I had gone to a wedding reception prior, been drinking all day, and as soon as I sat down (even in the FRONT ROW) I just nodded off. It was a small show, so obviously the band was aware of my absurd behavior, and proceeded to throw my name into songs to try and wake me up. It…

MFNW: I Made it Out!

Long before deciding that attending Musicfest Northwest sounded like a good idea, I once fell asleep at a Dinosaur Jr. concert. Everyone seemed amazed that I was able to sleep through the incredibly loud music, but with a little bit of vodka, it just sounded like white noise to me. And I can honestly sleep anywhere. So it should come as no surprise that I also nodded off at the Bob Mould show last night. This time though, I'm saying it was far less pathetic. My people! First of all, we went to another show first. Fred Armisen at the Crystal Ballroom. If I was really choosing my shows by…

The Making of My Best Instagram Ever

Recently I posted the ultimate instagram. You may have seen it if you're one of my over 500 followers, but if not, check your feed now! You're not following me? Jesus it's @brookegeery. Anyway, it's the same photo as above, but you'll need to see it on Instagram to grasp the amazing filtering choice I made (this one was edited in boring old Photoshop.) I know this is the best instagram ever because I can see how many people like it (the ultimate sign of success) and at press time it had upwards of 12 likes. Because of that, I decided a making of the 'gram post was in order…

The RE-BRANDING: This blog is about Food Carts Now!

So you may have guessed I got bored with trying to eat lunch on Hawthorne every day. It was expensive, we ran out of restaurants we weren't specifically avoiding, and oh yeah, I moved my office to felony flats. Well, technically we've rebranded it the "Flavel Arts District" hoping it'll catch on like Alberta did, but apparently white trash people are harder to gentrify. Anyway! I was just in a heated debate with Stan about our two nearest Food Cart pod locations (actually it wasn't heated at all, we agreed) and realized, I could start food blogging again, but about cart pods. I'm way better at keeping these things going…

Oh Hai! Social Networks are Driving me Insane

I've been neglecting this blog for all this time. As the "queen of Internet snowboarding" I really should be trying harder to keep my social presence up, but I heard blogging is dead. I mean, follow me on Instagram, Twitter, Vine, Snapchat and if you want we can play Words with Friends. Anyway, I've been so busy trying to promote Yobeat with all this social networks that I've been finding it hard to create content. You probably haven't noticed, I can post videos with my eyes closed these days, and I've had Stan doing stuff. But just so you know, I have been on Auto pilot for months. I think…

So You Want to Sue Me…

Every so often, I write something offensive. Something that's just mean, or uncalled for, or whatever. This was not one of those times. No, this time I wrote a review of a children's book about snowboarding formatted as a third-grade book report and purposely written to sound that way. Well, the publishers of said book apparently didn't like my review. Rather than just ignoring it, which would have been the appropriate response, they sent me the following email: Hello Brooke Geery, I am a legal representative for the Adventure Zoo Crew. Recently we found that you wrote a very dishonest article on one of our books "Sammy the Shredder". Not…

Because I really enjoy seeing if clueless PR people will come through on their promises, here's some completely irrelevant info for the people who came here 1) looking to get their Instagram unblocked or 2) that think I'm funny/interesting (there are way more of #1.) I believe this EXCITING info I received today was  aimed at Yobeat, but whatever. I work for a company called The Collectionary.  We are building the best place to go on the internet to find and buy items for avid collectors. One of the Collectionary's we have is for NASCAR! http://thecollectionary.com/club/nascar We would love to feature your blog on our NASCAR Facebook page with over…

MFNW Saves the Day!

While I'm admitting to being old and falling asleep at shows, I should also note I once feel asleep in the front row on an emo show. It was my friends' band, formerly Hijack the Disco, now known as HIJK, because Panic! at the Disco issued them a cease a desist. Anyway, I had gone to a wedding reception prior, been drinking all day, and as soon as I sat down (even in the FRONT ROW) I just nodded off. It was a small show, so obviously the band was aware of my absurd behavior, and proceeded to throw my name into songs to try and wake me up. It…

MFNW: I Made it Out!

Long before deciding that attending Musicfest Northwest sounded like a good idea, I once fell asleep at a Dinosaur Jr. concert. Everyone seemed amazed that I was able to sleep through the incredibly loud music, but with a little bit of vodka, it just sounded like white noise to me. And I can honestly sleep anywhere. So it should come as no surprise that I also nodded off at the Bob Mould show last night. This time though, I'm saying it was far less pathetic. My people! First of all, we went to another show first. Fred Armisen at the Crystal Ballroom. If I was really choosing my shows by…

The Making of My Best Instagram Ever

Recently I posted the ultimate instagram. You may have seen it if you're one of my over 500 followers, but if not, check your feed now! You're not following me? Jesus it's @brookegeery. Anyway, it's the same photo as above, but you'll need to see it on Instagram to grasp the amazing filtering choice I made (this one was edited in boring old Photoshop.) I know this is the best instagram ever because I can see how many people like it (the ultimate sign of success) and at press time it had upwards of 12 likes. Because of that, I decided a making of the 'gram post was in order…

The RE-BRANDING: This blog is about Food Carts Now!

So you may have guessed I got bored with trying to eat lunch on Hawthorne every day. It was expensive, we ran out of restaurants we weren't specifically avoiding, and oh yeah, I moved my office to felony flats. Well, technically we've rebranded it the "Flavel Arts District" hoping it'll catch on like Alberta did, but apparently white trash people are harder to gentrify. Anyway! I was just in a heated debate with Stan about our two nearest Food Cart pod locations (actually it wasn't heated at all, we agreed) and realized, I could start food blogging again, but about cart pods. I'm way better at keeping these things going…

Oh Hai! Social Networks are Driving me Insane

I've been neglecting this blog for all this time. As the "queen of Internet snowboarding" I really should be trying harder to keep my social presence up, but I heard blogging is dead. I mean, follow me on Instagram, Twitter, Vine, Snapchat and if you want we can play Words with Friends. Anyway, I've been so busy trying to promote Yobeat with all this social networks that I've been finding it hard to create content. You probably haven't noticed, I can post videos with my eyes closed these days, and I've had Stan doing stuff. But just so you know, I have been on Auto pilot for months. I think…

So You Want to Sue Me…

Every so often, I write something offensive. Something that's just mean, or uncalled for, or whatever. This was not one of those times. No, this time I wrote a review of a children's book about snowboarding formatted as a third-grade book report and purposely written to sound that way. Well, the publishers of said book apparently didn't like my review. Rather than just ignoring it, which would have been the appropriate response, they sent me the following email: Hello Brooke Geery, I am a legal representative for the Adventure Zoo Crew. Recently we found that you wrote a very dishonest article on one of our books "Sammy the Shredder". Not…

Last Weekend, Whenever: The Dirksen Derby 2017

Originally Published on Yobeat | December 23, 2017 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LcAwWRPHgF8 The 2017 Dirksen Derby is nothing but good vibes. Whether you spent December 15-17th complaining about back pain in the lodge, ripping around Mt. Bachelor, teaching your kids to stand on a snowboard, or actually trying to get a faster time than your friends, the 10th edition of the mostly-annual competition may just have been the best yet. Josh specifically designed the event to be fun for all. The course isn’t about survival, but rather pushing your own limits. If you make it down unscathed, you’re likely to think, “that was fun!” as opposed to other banked slaloms, where you’re just…

Amateur Pet Photography

Since leaving the house is hard and rarely very rewarding, I've taken up the hobby of pet photography. It also helps that we have a pretty solid heard or creatures. So far the cats and the dog have their own instagrams, and it's only a matter of time before the chickens do as well (though I should leave that one up to Jared.) Anyway, if you love adorable things follow @willisandtyra and @thelemmygram for more photos like this, plus occasionally witty captions.
