Umphrey's McGee

The best band you've never heard of. Are hardly a "jam band" because they put every other band in the field to shame with their ridiculous musicianship. Consists of six accomplished musicians, half of which have college degrees in music. Songs are a mixture of technical, tightly composed music (featuring odd time signatures, unexpected key changes, and brilliant melodies), excellent lyricism, and UM's hilarious sense of humor, puncutated by the amazing guitar playing of Brendan Bayliss and Jake Cinninger and drumming of Kris Myers. Definitely music for musicians, but can be enjoyed by all.

Too bad bands like Umphrey's McGee, Medeski Martin and Wood, and Bela Fleck are lumped into the jam band genre.

Power Couple

A relationship between two people who are equally as cool as each other. They are as individually awesome and fun to be around as they are when they are together.

Neither one depends on the other for their feelings of self worth- they know in their heart that they are just as valuable to the world as the other. Good looking, optimistic, and sparks a light in the world that people recognize that goes beyond a normal relationship.

In a power couple, if one person is flawed, the other person makes up for their weaknesses in strength. Together they are the epitome of what anyone would desire in a relationship. They encourage goodness in the world and make it a better place by being together.

I'm a fan of those two, they are such a power couple, the epitome of what anyone would want in a relationship.

I am envious of them because they are a power couple.

Shackteâu

A Shackteau is a humble, weather-beaten, structurally questionable shelter located in a spectacular or highly coveted place—Wales, Jackson Hole, Sun Valley, Crested Butte, coastal Maine, the Alps—where the building itself may be worth almost nothing, but the dirt, view, access, and mythology make it absurdly valuable.
In use:

Shackteâu - We thought it was an abandoned shed until the realtor called it a rare alpine Shackteâu with unobstructed views and listed it for $2 million.
