baseball

hey there

so in my email newsletter that i sent out, i mentioned that i was busy with baseball, and a few people wrote back asking about that. yep. i play baseball. i started when i was really little (yay t-ball!) and right now i play JV at school. my position is 2nd base and my uniform number is 2. (coincidence??? hmmmm... ) so now when you're all annoyed because i haven't put a new episode up for a long time, you can think to yourself "he's probably at a baseball game!" and you might be right! 8)

big blue button = mailing list

hey guys

some of you already know that i started doing an email newsletter thing. so that's why there's a big blue button (bbb) off to the right of the page. if you want to get an email newsletter about what's new with the Dylan's Couch show, when new episodes are coming up, contests (like the ipod contest) etc, hit the bbb and enter your email. i promise i won't sell your info. you'll just get cool emails from me. 8)

wanna win an ipod shuffle?

hey, if you haven't noticed, i just put a new survey on www.DylansCouch.com. the original one was full (you're only allowed something like 5000 responses with the free Survey Monkey account...) so i decided to put up a new one. so just click on the link at the top of the page. If you fill out the survey and provide your email address or YouTube username, you could win an ipod shuffle! i'm gonna pick one person at random from all the survey responses. So go respond, ok?

really - that was my FIRST lesson!

hey guys

i was reading thru the comments on my drivin' video last night and a ton of people seemed to think that wasn't really my first time driving. So to set the record straight:

1.) that was the first time my parents took me to a parking lot and let me drive out in the open. my mom has let me back the car out of the driveway a few times before. (and if you've learned on a manual, you know it's a little easier to learn the clutch in reverse than in 1st gear.)
2.) at times when it looked like i was driving really fast the vid was playing in fast motion. i drove really slowly in reality.
3.) i did stall one time. it was edited out because it was kinda boring.. i just restarted the engine and started back up again!


so that's the facts!

drivin'!

hey guys!

yes, i had my first driving lesson over the weekend. and yes, i am too young to drive. see, both my parents drive stick shifts, so my mom said i could start learning early because she thinks it's gunna take me a lot longer to learn compared to kids who learn on automatics. so she let me have my first lesson even though i had just turned 15. sweeeeeet. but i didn't really go on the street, we stayed in the parking lot the whole time. still, it was awesome! maybe next time i'll be able to shift into 3rd gear LOL (i was lucky they let me shift into 2nd - my dad wanted me to stay in 1st the whole time!) so yeah, that was real, but no, i'm NOT old enough to get a license. or even a permit. not for another year, but by that time i should be able to drive better than my mom! (i'm pretty sure i do already...)
