January 3, 2008 - Tamarack Here We Come

Mike: I hear the Shooks are going to Tamarack, Idaho for some skiing.  The resort is pretty new and has great reviews for awesome skiing so the boys and I think we'll come along.

Spike: That's some winter outfit Spike.

Mike: Thanks, I shopped at Tri-State for some fly winter duds to impress the babes on the slopes.

Alien: On my planet I would need a Driver's License to operate this stretch limo. 

Mike: That's why our planet is so cool.

Alien: It's just like a scene from Entourage.

Spike: Since when do you watch HBO?

Mike: Here we are at Idaho Airlines and Captain Polly is here to greet us for our flight.

Captain Polly: Sir, I'm sorry we don't fly to Tamarack, Idaho.  Move to a real state with reliable air service.  Have fun on your major interstate, i.e. two-lane highway.

Mike: This is outrageous.  At least the Thorsteinsons travel by air.  The Shooks drive - how quaint.  I'm sure it will be a great trip with 3 kids, 1 grumpy husband, 1 over-organized mother, and enough ski gear to outfit the US Olympic Team.

Spike: I'm not sitting next to Jennings, he talks too much. 

Mike: Now this is more like it.  A fine abode for me and my friends.  I could get to like this Tamarack place.  Who gets the master bedroom in the condo?
