Beer Pong / Flip Cup Table

YEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAH

In anticipation of the temperature increasing above 60 degrees here in Dallas, the fact that I have a handful of bachelor parties to attend, and that my kickball team might actually get to play some games soon, I am gladly announcing that I want to get a new beer pong / flip cup combo table for some good spring and summer pre/post partying. In performing just one google search I came across a list of the 33 "best" beer pong tables: (The 33 Best Beer Pong Tables Ever Created). See below for the ones which I enjoy the most.

32) The Balitmore Beer Pong Table. I like the cup holders which will keep people from knocking over the cups, and wasting less beer.

27) Surfboard Beer Pong Table. I like this one since this one can stand in the corner and be ornamental.

19) Floating Beer Pong Table. I always wanted to take one of these to a pool. Here's another great example of floating beer pong tables (they're inflatable!) - PortOPong

15) Crossroads Beer Pong Table. Two games at once sharing the same table, awesome.

6) Sod Beer Pong Table. I think this is hilarious, but it's out of the question when it comes to maintainability and playing flip cup.

2) Fire Beer Pong Table. Dude, how sweet would it be if there were flames coming up from the table itself? This one is by far my favorite, but if I did it, where would be the safest spots for the flames? Probably not a good for a bunch of people drinking :D

So I think I'm either going to go with the surfboard or the inflatable table.. maybe both? Not sure. One really can't do flip cup, and the other may be too narrow for flip cup. Maybe I'll have to build one after all.

This Music Belongs In An Epic Movie

Keeping it simple again. Here's a list of some tracks I think would make quite a great soundtrack.

The Coasters - Down In Mexico
Peter Bjorn and John - Young Folks
Kenny Rogers and The First Edition - Just Dropped In
Phoenix - 1901
April March - Chic Habit (Laisse Tomber Les Filles)
The Zombies - Tell Her No
The Zombies - Time Of The Season

Mega Man 2 - Dr. Wily's Castle

One of the coolest 8 bit tracks I've ever heard. Oh nostalgia..
Dr. Wily's Castle Theme

Alternative Hip Hop? Didn't know it was called that..

So every now and then I listen to Aesop Rock, Jurassic 5, Z-Trip, etc. There has been this one song I've been looking for since, well, about 2003. I finally found it while listening to Pandora today. I found it under the artist Cut Chemist, but had no luck until I picked up on the hint of the title of the track "Chemical Calisthenics". So it's either one of the following three:

(Pandora) Cut Chemist - The Litmus Test 15
(Amazon) Cut Chemist - Chemical Calisthenics
(YouTube) Blackalicious - Chemical Calisthenics

The Chill 70's and 80's Rock Mix

The Ol' Half Marathon..

Debating running the next Texas Half. The day is January 30th, 2010. Last time I did this my legs turned into sticks on the 10th mile. I still wonder how fast I was running each mile before that:

Holla..

So let's see if I can keep these blogs up. I've decided to slowly build a pop/rap/dance mix for the summer of 2010.

Let's give this a shot! Are you receiving messages from my phone, Mr. Blog?

Dear Friends..

This is my blog. I doubt I will post anything here soon, and the fact that you have found it amazes me because I haven't mentioned anything of it to you.

However, if I do decide writing anything here at some point, then I do truly hope it interests you.

Stuart
