That's right ladies and gentleman. It's time for the first (annual if I ever do this thing agian) Deano Awards given to the best things that happen in my life and those around me. Getting a Deano is comparible to getting a Dundie Award because well it's kinda pointless but it makes people feel good and gives you more incite to my crazy ass life and what I think is the Shit, the Nuts, or my favorite and first award…The Titties.

Favorite saying of 2006: That's the Tits! (also used in: That's the Titties, Guy's the Tits, Remember that time we went and shot all those sewer rats and found that hundred dollar bill by that dead guy and spent it on pixie sticks which we snorted up our nose and made rainbow booger…THE TITTIES!
Last year's winner, The Nuts, is basically the same bird but this year we've added an R rated version. The Titties means something is as awesome as a pair of titties which let's just be honest, is freaking the titties. I mean yeah, girls will probably get pissed and say, That Drew Dean is one male chauvinistic pig!" But those girls probably don't have nice titties and therefore aren't the Tits. Other critics might say, "Wow Drew, maybe next year you could be a little more original with your favorite saying instead of just using another word to describe awesomeness." But what they don't realize is that everyday I wake up, I piss awesomeness! Because I'm the Tit's. Moving on.

Favorite album of the year: The Fray-How to Save a Life(runner-up: The Format-Dog Problems)

It was a very very tough decision this year with my favorite album but The Fray got the Deano due to the fact I couldn't get their songs out of my head the first 100 times I heard it. Usually I can get very tired of a CD but I'm still jamming to it and the boys from really do a great job of keeping the melodies in sync and not jumping around. It's a smooth transition from one song to another and the tracks flow perfectly together. It's their first Deano.

Favorite movie of the year…Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan (Runner-up-The Departed)

Have I seen this movie…no. Do you think I should give this movie the movie of the year? I don't give a rat's ass because, and you can quote me, this movie is going to be THE TITS. I'm talking the Total Recall Titties. Not because the movie Total Recall was any good, but because of the one scene where one of the alien chick had three glorious titties and showed them to the camera when I was just a young boy. Borat will change the face of comedies starting a new almost real life mocumentary where the actors don't know their actors but are the brunt of a very real and serious genius named Borat. Sasha Cohen is the genius behind Ali G, and HBO Series that over the last several years has willed it's way into pot-heads Tivo's around the nation. Need I remind you that Sasha Cohen is also engaged to the hot red head from Wedding Crashers. Yeah, that guy's the titties.

Favorite Roommate Award…Kijun Hong a.k.a. Keys

Since around my junior year at Southwestern School of People Who Think They're Cooler Than They Actually Are And Where Girls Think Their Hot Due Solely to a Lack of Options, Kijun found his first nickname KIKI (Also referred to as The Asian Pike Guy). Kijun hated this nickname so after graduating and moving in with me, I dubbed him Keys cause, well I wanted to start this mob here and needed him to have a much scarier nickname than kiki so you get the point. Either way, it stuck and we both like it. Other reason's why he wins this award, guy can cook, is cleanly, knows Karate, and has opened my eyes up to a world of country music I didn't even know existed. Thanks buddy.

Best TV Show of the Year…The Office and Entourage!!! (Runner-Ups: How I Met Your Mother, Rescue Me, Nip/Tuck, Season 10)

You just can't beat either of these shows. The day labor loves the office for it's great character and real life feeling of having a moron as a boss. You've got a different personality in every cubical and the tension between Jim and Pam leaves every episode waiting for the inevitable second make-out session. Hopefully it'll be before season 4 starts. As for Entourage every guy wants to have this life, every girl wants to #)*(@ the @(#$& and put Vince's@)#^% in their #@)(!!over and over and every normal person ages 18-29 is addicted to this show. My mom loves it, my friends love it, my grandma wanted to jump Johnny Drama for her birthday on Halloween. I got her a stand-up poster instead but this show is hot. The next season starts in a couple months and it's gonna be exciting considering there's technically no more Ari Gold (Jeremy Piven) and Vince is on the prowl for a new agent. Either way, man I wanna do Vince in the pooper.

Best Trip of the Year: Limits 2006 (Runner-Up: )

Let's just say I love music, almost too much. I mean I used to play the Song Game with my brother. The Song Game is simple, keep pressing the seek button, in one direction only and let everyone in the car guess one time what artist is singing in the song. You only get one guess and the rest of the players in the car get to decipher between all But what if there's two people singing the song or the song is featuring another artist. Any person singing in the song is a legitimate answer. For instance, if Santana and Michelle Branch are both playing and singing in the song, either one counts. There's also a challenge rule allowing a player who believes he or she is right or another player in the car is wrong, but that's a little complicated. The point is I have no life and because I love music, I make up stupid games, which I'm better than you at, to announce how great I am at guessing the artist of songs over played on the radio. Bridger, Lee, Suarez…we ripped it up at ACL this year. You all have amazing rods and I can't wait for Suarez's wedding where he can finally lose his virginity. I miss the Donkey!

Greatest Achievement of 2006: 5and at the 2006 World Series of Poker

Ohh, what's that? You're still bragging? Yeah I am, and you're still reading about my worthless life so lay off me! Seriously though, when I got knocked out of the first $1500 event I was crushed. I had the guy slaughtered King's vs 8's and lost to some moron. But then Phil Helmuth, yes that guy everyone hates cause he's a whiney bitch, told the guy he was the worst player ever and he probably can't even spell poker. Great moment. The next tournament I got to stare at Shannon Elizabeth's side-boob the entire tournament and it was Glor-Ious!!! And the money was kinda tight too but doesn't even compare to our night at Jet. This club was amazing and basically the titties of clubs in Vegas. Beautiful girls, lost of Grey Goose, and great friends around me. , Big Dean, Christi, Little Mauer made the trip. But nothing was as great as seeing Mike "The Mouth" Matisow walking in with what seemed to be (maybe) a 20-year old bomb shell of a girl who left Mike sometimes within the first hour and a half they were there. I was walking up to the front to let the gay guy, I'm not being mean this guy was very gay and had a crush on Matt for sure, know Lauren was with our group and found Mike text messaging on his phone in a chair up front. In a drunken move of good character I asked Mike if he'd like to join our corner of the bar we paid 250.00 to stand at, and have some gentleman like drinks. Mike said "Yeah man, lemme talk to this girl and find out where she is." Knowing this girl had a better chance of blowing the gay guy out front then coming back to hang out with ole' Mikey I kindly said to Mike "The Mouth" Mattisow, "Mikey, she's gone man. Don't worry about her and come back to drink with us." Mike then looked at me with his best puppy dog eyes and said, "No she had a family emergency and had to leave for a little while." I rebuttled, "MIIIIIIIIIIIIIke…you and I both know she's not coming back. Now you can either be a grump and stay on the couch or come drink some cranberry vodka with me and my friends." He never came over.

So that's it for this year so far. I might add a couple to this list so keep checking back. Other than that have a great weekend people, don't forget the little guy, and give a brother a shout out every once in a while. Ship it!
