Merry Christmas, everyone!

Frozen

Sunday, November 29th, 2009

I spent Saturday night at ICE!, a walk-through Christmas attraction hand-carved from two million pounds of ice over at the Gaylord Palms Resort. According to the website, it's a "whimsical wonderland of larger-than-life, three-dimensional hand-carved ice monuments and scenes, including fantastic frozen creations, slippery ice speed slides, and heart-warming holiday vistas."

Was it worth the $25 per person to enter? Probably not, unless you have an ice or Christmas fetish. The work done was very impressive, and the sculptors were extremely talented, but I think I was hoping for a wee bit more interactivity. Regardless, I'm glad that I went and checked it out, because it was still a fun night! Here are a few photos from it, and the whole set is up on Flickr:

Levi Johnston: Beefcake or fraud? You decide.

Monday, November 23rd, 2009

I was reading through my feedreader this weekend when I saw this post by my new favorite celebrity news blogger, entitled Levi Johnston's Playgirl Photos. Curious about all the hubbub, I clicked over to check out the scans from Playgirl.

I was shocked and disappointed to discover that rather than actually ask Levi Johnston to pose nude for their magazine, Playgirl took a photo shoot that I did for them many years ago and just Photoshopped his head onto my body and removed the tattoo I have on my right arm! It's an outrage, and I plan on writing a strongly worded letter demanding compensation.

Don't believe me? Here's the original:

Avitaween 2009: What I did with your vacation photos

Tuesday, October 27th, 2009

Those of you who sent in vacation photos helped us out with our decorations immensely. As I said yesterday, we converted my game room into a war room and covered three walls with "Recent Sightings", which were all 122 vacation photos submitted that had aliens photoshopped in. You can view the whole set here, but here are some of my favorites, and I've also embedded a slideshow of all of them, too. Thank you to each of you who submitted a photo!

P.S. I'm considering going to Las Vegas on December 11-13th for the huge blogger birthday bash. Any of you planning on it? When are you flying in? Inquiring Avitable braincells want to know.

If Avitable loses his beard and nobody's there, is he still Avitable?

Wednesday, September 23rd, 2009

I started growing facial hair when I was 13 years old. By 14, I was able to grow a passable beard that my parents detested. When I left for college at 17, I grew a goatee and for the last 15 years, my face has been covered in a beard or a goatee.

Three years ago, I looked like this:

In February 2007, I got a membership at a barbershop. Every week, I go in for a shave and a haircut. And sometimes eyebrow, forehead, cheek, ear, and nose waxing. It kept me from looking like a homeless psycho on the run from the law.

And each week, when I go into the barber, I usually look like this:

And when I'm done, I look like this (or some bearded variation):

But this week, when I left, I looked like this (picture behind the fold):

Narcissism 101

Saturday, August 1st, 2009

After uploading my photos to Flickr from BlogHer, I spent some time searching around for some of the better photos taken of me during the conference. And because I'm nothing if not narcissistic, I thought I'd post a few here:
