So since the Favre circus began once again a couple weeks back, the one-minute sports update I do every day has been replaced with “I Hate Brett Favre” songs, every day until he made up his mind. This is one of those songs:

Fellow Ministers,
The time has come, the Super Important, World Premiere of ‘Townies Don’t Surf’. We failed mightily in securing a good viewing venue. Apparently the best surf video to come out of Mar Vista in the last 9 months doesn’t seem to carry much weight around these parts. Apparently, all the theaters are busy showing “Real Movies”.
Not to worry though, this will actually make for a good old fashioned Hootenanny at our humble residence. We will be hosting a viewing party at Beethoven St. this coming Saturday from 6:00pm-10pm. Whiskar will be provided to all guests, in jars.
Anyone in attendance is encouraged to bring a jug of their favorite moonshine, a few cold ones, or if you run over some meat on your way here, we can throw it on the grill. We will be BBQing at around 6:00pm.
There will be two showings of the film.
First Screening 8:00pm
Second Screening 9:00pm
Bowling 10:00pm
This will be a townie themed hootenanny, so dress appropriately. If anyone has a friend or two, bring them, as long as they’re kin!
Afterparty
We have three lanes reserved at Mar Vista Lanes at 10:00pm for those interested in throwing stones.
If you’re having a little trouble getting excited about a surf movie, made by two guys who don’t surf that good, maybe a few tarp tasties will get you in the mood. Scratching!!!!

Not much to say about it, but pretty awesome how local news turns into a global entertainment phenomenon.

Hey Fellars, Scratch a mark in yer calendars!!! August 7th, Los Angeles. Townie themed surf video premiere. Bring yer pals. Yer not going to want to miss this! ‘Townies Don’t Surf’ is, probably the best amateur surf video to come out of Mar Vista in the past 16 months.
The exact location is still being figured, but it will be in the Venice/Santa Monica area. The film will probably be followed by either a Beethoven townie themed hootenanny, or a trip to a local watering hole. At some point we’ll probably go bowling. Either way, if ya got a flannel bring it, and polish yer boots, yer coming to the big city! Whiskarrrrr in a jar will be provided. “Randy” will be there.
For those who care, a former Angelino, The law doggin ‘Dutchman’ (Pat) will be Flying from DC, and come back Californee way, to attend the showing.
Rumors of a Tom Jones movie are even circulating from the 805.
Wheeeeeeeehooooooo!!!!!

P.S.
Sorry to post directly over your marriage announcement Photo, that is certainly a bigger deal, than amateur hour. However we included funny photos and a movie poster, which i think people will find humorous.
Dane and Jessica are getting married Y’all!!! Read below. Thanks for the update post braaah, most appreciated. I wish you both the best from the bottom of my heart, and the collective heart of IFS. I’d be great to have you both.

Dear Ministers and Rabbi,
First off I want to say happy 4th to all! I also want to apologize for my absence in Vegas, from what I hear it was Fucking Awesome! I will be the first to admit I have not been the strongest member for some time, and for that I am truly sorry.
Life and responsibility have taken hold and I am proud to announce that Jess and I are in Escrow on a Condo in the Homeland of Goleta. On a side note… Welcome back Fidel! Stoked to hear the good news bro.
Also we have the the Real Wedding Jam! I hope that the Save the Dates found their way to everybody. If not… let me know I will shoot one out asap. As for my Bachelor Party… it will be the weekend of August 13-14. We are planning a river rafting trip down the Middle Fork of the American River in the lower Tahoe area, and it should be pretty strong (class 3 and 4) w/potential for some good old fish fucking if Jimmy can make it. As of now we have two boats booked and almost full with the ability to add more if we know pretty soon. The Trip will run ~300 bones and I would be stoked if anyone can make it. Let me know and I’ll shoot you further details.
Love you guys!

Here’s a little preview of things to come. That’s right… Wardrobe and myself are on our way to the 1739 Public House for World Cup action, which will be starting at 7AM. Something tells me Wardrobe might eventually turn into our own “Vuvuzela Guy” by the time the final whistle blows signifying a victory for the USA…. Well, I can only hope!
