Team Whynatte Wins Title Again

Monday, December 31st, 2007

Do you remember the first time you bought a sports franchise? For me, it seems almost like yesterday that I bought my first team, the Whynatte Fighting Lattes. One of the nice things about owning a sports franchise is the satisfaction that comes with a championship season. Ask any owner, it’s really [...]

Shea and Christina: A Forbidden Love

Monday, December 31st, 2007

Shea’s had his eye on Christina since the sweltering hot summer of ‘05. Who could blame him? She was everything that a man could desire; Tall, brainey, with a slim waist and a thick heart. Christina had many suitors, but she had not committed herself, nor her latte, to any of them. [...]

A Few Photos from the Party

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Last night, in honor of our dear friend Michael Walbert’s birthday, we threw a Whynatte themed party. We knew that this was going to be our biggest party to date, but we had no idea just how big it would be. Close your eyes, and picture a brontasaurus. Now, picture the brontasaurus, [...]

A Tale of Two Matts

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Expensive time lapse photography allows us to see what happens as a man goes from his first to his eleventh Whynatte:
Image 1a: 11pm. Matt enjoys a Whynatte with the birthday boy. His eyes are clear, he is smiling, and there are no noticeable abrasions on his upper torso.

Transporting the twelve gallons of latte from my house to the party at Opera.

Amazing Party

Saturday, December 29th, 2007

Just a real quick thank you to everyone that came out tonight for the Whynatte party at Opera. That was absolutely fantastic, and I know for a fact that Mike had the best birthday party he could ever imagine.
Special thanks to those of you that spent your afternoon brewing the many gallons of latte. [...]

Welcome to Walbertville CHANGE OF VENUE

Monday, December 24th, 2007

Whynatte: Likes to keep you guessing.
It wouldn’t be proper if we didn’t change the venue one last time. Which we have done. This party has truly become the most well recepted party of the century. It keeps growing, and we keep outgrowing our venue.
No longer.
THE PARTY IS NOW [...]

The Why Not Bar, NYC

Friday, December 21st, 2007

I thought that I was having another one of my NyQuil induced visions when I received the following photos. Although the fairies that were making me gingerbread cookies were make-believe, the Why Not bar in New York City is not.
People had spoken to me of this bar before, yet nobody had actually been able to [...]

The Whynatte Hoodie

Thursday, December 20th, 2007

A brief story, completely unrelated to the photos below:
I was in Home Depot this past Sunday, buying gravel with my contractor friend Orion. We’re standing in the checkout line, getting ready to put the payment forth on 20 bags of rock, when a gentleman of about 50 saunters into the store. This man [...]

The Fig Tree

Tuesday, December 18th, 2007

Like an old seasoned rhesus monkey training a pair of young monkeys in the fine art of fig gathering, sometimes I have to take it upon myself to show new Whynatte drinkers how it’s done.
True, I’ve been in this here latte game for some time now, and true, these days I have servents that do [...]

Can Anyone Speak Jive?

Monday, December 17th, 2007

In case you were wondering, even aliens on planet Unog love the Whynatte. Check out this site:
The Raw Russian Version
UPDATE: It turns out that the native language of Unog is actually Russian. Whynatte’s in house in-house translator, Morris, was able to decode the Russian website. Here is the translated version:

Ja-Shin in Taiwan

Thursday, December 13th, 2007

Ja-Shin, Whynatte’s diplomat in the far east, was recently visiting relatives in Taiwan. Needless to say, she wore her Whynatte shirt each and every day, and sent us a few photos from her travels abroad:
“This is me, my mom, and my grandma, all praying for Whynattes. That big pot in front of us is an [...]

The Chambered Nautilus

Tuesday, December 11th, 2007

When Cara wears her special spiral shirt, you know that she’s going to be drinking some serious Whynattes. And by “serious”, I mean “numerous”.
Is that an imprint of the Hawaiian Islands on Claire’s shirt? Nope, just a latte stain.

Living the Life

Monday, December 10th, 2007

If you’ve never poured a flaming hot latte down your face, you don’t know what it is to be alive.

Megan’s Pursuit of Whynatte Rookie of the Year

Sunday, December 9th, 2007

2007 Whynatte Rookie of the Year candidate, Megan, looked to cement her title this past Friday night. Megan burst onto the Latte scene earlier this year, and hasn’t looked back since.
With the year winding down, Megan brought out her A game. After Whynatte number 5, Megan, although sporting a resting heart [...]
