A PRESENT, SOME SAVINGS, WIN STUFF, AND PIC.S OF PIGS

Big ups to JR for always sending me killer mash ups (still can't get over that Wu VS Beatles) here is a Fela Kuti meets De La Soul (http://boingboing.net/2011/09/16/fela-soul-fela-kuti-meets-de-la-soul-gummy-soulamerigo-gazaway-mashup.html?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+boingboing%2FiBag+%28Boing+Boing%29) It's nothing but sweetness.

GRAND TARGHEE- WY  
Book three days of lodging or more by 9/30/2011 and save 40%. You have to call 800-827-4433. Warning, they aren't very good at answering the phone or calling you back. Last year I must have called ten times with no response. Then when I finally complained to a real person there was no apology. I am ashamed to say- we still did our annual Targhee trip (http://elevatedlocals.blogspot.com/2011/03/grand-targhee-snorkeling-in-mountains.html). Dealing with incompetence is a small price to pay for no lines, perfect powder, and a beautiful terrain.
Ps- it's already started snowing there

This weekend (9/17 & 9/18) the Road Warriors will be in Syracuse at the NYS fairgrounds. Just show up with your gear on and you can win tickets for Whiteface and enter to win a Whiteface season pass. (http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=130980356993632) The Road Warriors will be in Westchester on 8/8- 8/9 (das classy).

AND NOW FOR SOMETHING COMPLETELY GAPING- FASHION OR GAPING

Gaping can happen in every situation in any place- I have been at Fashion Week for the past seven days- Here are some Gapers from Fashion Week:

a gaping ass backpack?

quote from the gaping cats lady- "My cat just really loves fashion

this gaping queen wore the same ill fitting dress every other day

HEADS UP FOR NEXT SEASON PART III

NYC

BIG BEAR RESORTS- BEAR MOUNTAIN and SNOW SUMMIT- CA
I went to high school by these resorts; small mountains and big parks. You can purchase an anytime season pass for both of these mountains that includes night skiing for $559 (You would need to go ten times to break even during the day).  A midweek season pass is $249. A midweek plus Sundays season pass is $349. A night season pass is $129. You can also just purchase season passes for Bear Mountain. Here's the deal- these prices are only available for one day, September 24th, 2011 and you have to go to there and attend the Bear Mountain's 8th Annual Hot Dawgz and Hand Rails Summertime Snowboard Event. If you want to get these passes online they are $50-$100 more online until Dec. 4th, 2011.

TAOS- NM
I always wanted to go here, they just decided to let snowboarders drag their knuckles here- too bad we don't do that anymore (we are way more violent). You can get a season pass for $799 (11 days to break even). You can get a millennium Pass for $575, this pass is good for 70 days ($8.22 a day). They also have this crazy pass I have never seen before: Sundowners Pass- unlimited days after 3PM, it's $100. These deals are available until Oct. 1st, 2011 after that the Season Pass is $999.

WHITEFACE and GORE- NY
I have never been here, but trips are in order. Whiteface has been called Iceface, this mountain is known to be gangster and is home to two Olympic games. Gore is supposed to be equally fun. Season Passes (for both mountains) have been cheaper (earlier in the year), but as of now they are $849. I don't know how much Whiteface tickets are but Gore tickets are $65, so that's 14 times to break even. They also do a transferable pass for $2,250 which anyone can use. If you split that with four people it would be $562 each. This deals need to be purchased before Nov. 15th to get these discounts.
