Bring a friend! Bring a kid! Bring a giant thermos full of hot chocolate! Lace up and join us at the second annual Meatloafing on Ice—an event that’s already legendary. We’ll have awards (and maybe prizes, too) for Best Moves, Fell on Ass the Most, Speed Demon, and more. See you there!
All-Star Earth-Killers. The parade is pretty effing stupid—and while it’s supposedly a “green” parade, it’s just a continuous line of oversized pickup trucks (the ones with back seats) with one or maybe two All-Stars sitting there in the back. Couldn’t they just make a few floats and lump them all together? Who really gives a shit?

“recommendation to the city legislators: if one is going to hold a parade closing down major streets in the city, it must be a certain level of fun. perhaps 1 clown for every 500 people. 1 person in costume for every 250 people. mardi gras beads. boobs. pirates. —Ben
Last weekend marked the unofficial (but basically official—get real) start of summer. We enjoyed a BBQ, a cutthroat game of Apples to Apples, a leisurely bike ride to Rikers Island, and beautiful weather. Meatloafing offers 7 tips for a sensational summer:

Such a busy week here at the Loaf. I mean, really. Things have been hectic. So we’re just now getting to the recap of our first-ever event, Meatloafing on Ice, which was a tremendous success. Great weather, good friends, and laughter. Sorry for this somewhat lame recap, but thanks everyone for showing up. Even Mike Earls made an appearance!

For the sixth year in a row, we were there, daring to dream. The 2007 New York City Marathon always inspires us. This year we felt a certain kinship to the French runners, as shown below. Vive la France!
The money shot: the fastest dudes. (Don’t be offended by the commentary, pls.)
PLUS: More videos! Vive la France!
Here’s a video of my kewl boss kicking the shit out of some poor woman. Meatloafing on Ice–ers, she’s probably gonna trip you and then skate over your fingers and then laugh when they get cut off.
