Logical Assumptions

Monday, June 30th, 2008

Examine the following 3 statements, and then we will analyze the proposed conclusion:
(1) Most triathletes drink Whynattes.
(2) Most people that drink Whynattes are triathletes.
(3) Most athletic women eat halibut.
Laura and Lucy are triathletes, but Lucy does not like to eat halibut.  So therefore we can conclude that they must drink Whynattes, and that Lucy is [...]

Whynatte in Rough Neighborhoods

Friday, June 27th, 2008

I’ve been to a lot of rough places. Caracas, Bogota, and Medellin to name a few. I’ve seen a man take a shiv to the kidney, and then turn the bloody shiv on his attacker. Yet, after everything I’ve seen, nothing compares to the sort of shit that goes down in Bel [...]

Rehearsal Makes for Strong Results

Thursday, June 26th, 2008

While we’re on the topic of best mongolian beef recipes, we may as well take a minute to discuss the notion of rehearsing Whynatte drinking prior to actually doing the real thing in public.
Similar to the way in which couples have a rehearsal dinner the evening before to the actual wedding, we’ve been getting reports [...]

A Day in the Life at Whynatte

Monday, June 23rd, 2008

So you’ve been wondering what it’s like to work at Whynatte? Here’s what’s involved in a typical day at the office:
6:30 a.m. Andy the intern is sent out into the pasture to feed the various livestock at our offsite research facility, and to collect the goat spleens which will be used as a base [...]

Things Made of Wood (Part 2)

Friday, June 20th, 2008

Not to be confused with the first “Things Made of Wood” post, this one tells the emotionally timeless story of a man with a wooden serving tray.
Indeed, this post tells of a man in houndstooth who was given a sign by a higher power. When he awoke on the morning of June 20th 2005, [...]

Whynatte on the Golf Course

Thursday, June 19th, 2008

The only thing Kate likes more than breeding miniature goats is playing miniature golf. She just can’t get enough of it, and we can’t blame her. Kate writes that there is “nothing like a round of miniature golf to take the edge off a tough week of yam farming.” Can I get a [...]

Follow the Drinking Gourd

Wednesday, June 18th, 2008

Me: “Mike, you sure are drinking a lot of latte at 2 in the morning. You’re never going to fall asleep.”
Mike: “I’ll sleep when I die.”

The Bacon Dance

Here are some strong to very strong photos from the Whynatte Party this past weekend:
I was kind of embarrassed when my mom started getting so publicly affectionate with her friend:

Dean and I hashing out the final details of our upcoming cross-country rollerblading vacation:

Sebastian quickly logs onto eharmony to find a date for the evening:

Q: Would [...]

Doing the Damn Thing

Monday, June 16th, 2008

You wouldn’t make a braised cod without first preparing a proper marinade, just like we wouldn’t have a raging party and not post another set of photos from it. We already showed you a nice batch of photos, but here are some others that are noteworthy:
There is talk that we have created the best [...]

It Happened

Saturday, June 14th, 2008

The Baboon Breeders Ball went down this past Friday night at Opera in Atlanta, and if you weren’t there you should give a serious consideration to drinking a large quantity of Tilex. To be sure, this was the largest Whynatte party to date, and marked a new chapter in what promises to be the coming [...]

TONIGHT!

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Get ready for the next installment of your favorite hit show, “Whynatte Throws Large Party.” Only this time we’re not taking names, we’re giving them. I will call all men by the name “Bryce” and all women by the name “Claudia”. Then, we will all celebrate the hell out of some gorgeous [...]

Intern Shopping

Thursday, June 12th, 2008

Dave and I decided that it was about time Whynatte had an intern, so we busted a move over to the weekly intern auction held in the warehouses off of Marietta Street. We were amazed at how many breeds of intern they had on display there, and surprised at the variety of buyers. [...]

A Place For Friends

Wednesday, June 11th, 2008

Today we updated the Whynatte Myspace page. This was about as climactic as coming home to find that the cat had shit in the bed. However, there is a time and a place for everything, including Myspace.
If you have a Myspace page, please take a minute to check out Whynatte’s redesigned Myspace page, [...]

Bank of America ATM at Night:

Tuesday, June 10th, 2008

My father always said that good things come to those who wait. That was easy for him to say, seeing as though he owned and operated the largest eel farm in the Western Hemisphere. Well, I waited nearly a full 30 years and I was handsomely rewarded. Out of a sea [...]
