living off PBJ's and eggs

Snowboard slopestyler Chas Guldemond caught my eye when I was researching Hotties because he was the first one I found shirtless. And it has been love ever since:

without clothes

with clothes

Originally from New Hampshire this 26 year old moved to Tahoe to pursue is obsession with snowboarding.

"After a lot of hitchhiking to the mountain, training everyday, and living off PBJ's and eggs" Chas found his way to his first Olympics.

i wonder what he looks like standing straight.
he always seems to be tilted to the right. - just saying. 

Although fun facts about Chas are scarce, I was able to collect this cool website: http://www.chasguldemond.com/  I love how simple and basic it is. "Straight forward, easy to remember." - Captain Jack Sparrow. But who needs information, when you can just look?

oh yes. blow the wind so my shirt just magically outlines my sexy body. 

like this picture? pretty mountain scenery? look below at some photographer magic happening!  

I cannot wait until I can afford to build mountains in my room to shoot portraits. 

Goodnight. Xo

he broke his finger is 2011 and sprained his knee in 2014

Today is President's Day in the good ol' US of A and what this means is that every school across the country had today off, except for the Academy of Art University. Sound familiar? Yeah, that is the school I go to.

I haven't had the chance to tell you about my school days, because this blog has been dedicated to the hot men fighting for medals in Russia, but let me fill you in a little. I am taking a old fashioned, analogue, dark room, black and white, film photography, class. I haven't developed my own film and prints since I was in Italy (a moment to reflect back on such great times..thank you.) Last class we developed our first rolls of film and today we developed contact sheets. It felt so good to be back in the dark room, a good playlist on your headphones, your hands dipped in fixer, and creativity in your control.

If you have ever been with me while we confessed our deepest desires, you might already know this, but the dark room is like my ultimate dream kiss spot. So while I was developing today, I couldn't stop thinking about someone coming in and layin' one on me. And that special guy was tonight's Olympic Hottie, Xavier Bertoni:

25, French, and a half pipe skier, this blonde babe captured my heart when I first saw him on TV with Kevin Rolland while participating in the XGames.

His hobbies include parachute jumping, motorcycles, mountain biking, and quad biking (not sure what that is, but if I get to see your quads, hey, it can't be too bad.)

He broke his finger is 2011 and sprained his knee January 2014.

He has a tv/web series with Kevin Rolland at followus.tv and it includes videos of them skiing, eating, traveling, sleeping, and sometimes singing in the shower.

Goodnight. XO

friendship trumps competition

This article circulated into hands last night from the Olympic News Service and I thought I should share it with you. 

Men's ski slopestyle: Friendship trumps competition, even at the Games
Wednesday, 12 February 2014 - 17:21

KRASNAYA POLYANA - Even on the eve of their sport's debut at the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games, it is as much about having fun with friends as it is about competing to win a gold medal for the men of ski slopestyle competition.
Stand in the finish area for a two-hour training session and you might see any of the 30 athletes slated to compete on Thursday whiz by 10 or more times, clocking lap after lap on the imposing Sochi 2014 slopestyle course.
Blowing by the assembled media hungry for quotes and insight, the skiers reconvene in groups at the chairlift, laughing, fist bumping, and sharing war stories of the last run, before piling on to the chair in groups (often with no discernable national allegiance) and smiling in the sun on their way back up to do it all over again.
2013 and 2014 X Games winner and 2013/14 world cup leader Nick GOEPPER (USA) typically puts down the most laps of any skier, usually trailed closely by one, two or all of his US slopestyle teammates Bobby BROWN, Gus KENWORTHY, or Joss CHRISTIANSEN.
Even for GOEPPER, who is one of the most competitive athletes in the field, the time spent on the slopestyle course is as much a representation of his love of the sport as it is a dedication to best his fellow skiers.
"The one time we are all competitors is when we drop in and for the 45 seconds that occurs during our runs," GOEPPER commented recently after a training session in Rosa Khutor Extreme Park, "And then we get to the bottom (and watch the next skier on course) and we're like, 'Oh, he had a sick run'."
For Jossi WELLS (NZL), 23, and Beau-James WELLS (NZL), 18, the camaraderie runs deeper than friendship. The brothers ski, live, and travel together on both the slopestyle and halfpipe world tours, often accompanied by the rest of the sizable WELLS clan, including their brothers Byron, 21, and Jackson, 15, and their father and coach Bruce.
"We like to train together," Beau-James says of his brothers, "We try to feed off each other and do new tricks together and for me it is the best way to learn."
"Beau and I came in and we've been hanging for a week now just having the sickest time," Jossi said, "We have a hotel room that we hang out in, we go out and eat food, come up here and hit a sweet course with all the homies that are here. It's pretty rad."
The sense of inclusion and border-defying friendship that runs through ski slopestyle has helped create a Sochi 2014 competition start-list that features potential medallists from most corners of the world.
GOEPPER is from the US midwest, the WELLS boys are from New Zealand's south island,Russell HENSHAW (AUS) is from Sydney, and James WOODS (GBR) grew up skiing on a dry slope in Sheffield.
"I'm up here skiing with all my friends," WOODS says about the vibe on hill, "It's great, and there's just some good banter between us all."
HENSHAW too feels the love.
"Today I was doing a lap with Norway, the Swiss, the US. We're all friends," he said after Wednesday's training, "We're all hanging out and I don't see why that should change."
Despite the worldwide exposure ski slopestyle will receive come Thursday morning, it seems HENSHAW can rest easy knowing that the sense of community within his sport will not be going anywhere, any time soon.

side swiping smile

Usually, I would find a way to casually introduce the post. You know, tell you a cool fact about my day or what the weather is like in San Francisco this Wednesday night - but I am just way way way to excited about tonight's man that I cannot waste my time telling you about about my smart ass comments in class tonight.

Ladies, give a warm and bulking hug to Slovenia's HOT HOT HOT hockey player Bostjan Golicic:

Twenty four years old with a side swiping smile with brown curly hair messed up like you spent all day in bed talking about your favorite childhood memories. AND THOSE EYES. Can you say caramel and chocolate swirled blend with vanilla ice cream? Gimme, gimme, more.

game face - but remember you are his pre game and after game. : ) 

Six feet tall and currently living in France, this beautiful specimen plays forward position, shoots left, and kisses oh so very right (you can tell by looking, but don't worry, I am planning on testing this so I am giving you scientifically proven information. I can make out with him, for science, you know?)

look at his adorable smile, it sweeps to the side and he sweeps me off my feet. 

And a picture is worth a thousand words, but I can tell you, this next one is worth more than seventy one million. (#71 is his jersey number, just so you know.)

AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I can promise you will sleep well after that.. You know how we love man butts over here at Verbaledudette. Mmmm... yes please.

Have a lovely night and do not spend to much time admiring those sweet toned, perfectly firm, why are they so sexy, buns.

xoxo

complete strangers were reading my blog in a public place

This morning, as I was walking to class, I stopped at Starbucks to buy a latte (with a gift card given to me by my lovely Granny for Valentines Day.. thanks Grandmother!) and I noticed something quite surprising and ultimately exciting sitting at the table near the door. Three girls huddled around a lap top giggling and speaking another language. I was a little curious about what was so captivating to them and of course I wanted to giggle as well. I very slyly peered over their shoulder as I waited in line. On the screen was Verbaledudette. These complete strangers were reading my blog in a public place and enjoying it! Sometimes I forget there is an audience that reads these rambles I post. It is humbling, flattering, and a very good feeling to know I have your support, so thank you Verbaledudette readers!

Now, on to what you really want to hear and not just me blubbering my thank you speech. Meet Marvin James:

A goofy footed snowboarder from Switzerland, Marvin is twenty four years old. He is the shortest male we have had this season, but still stands at 5'7. 

Along with a little pipe and freestyle riding, Marvin's main snowboarding event is snow cross. For those of you who do not know, this event is similar to Mario Kart on the Wii. You are lined up at the starting line with about four other competitors, the buzzer goes off, and you race down the mountain over hills, jumps, around corners, and steep slopes. Oh sure, run into the person next to you knocking them down - no big deal. The only real difference between Mario Kart and snow cross is their isn't any bananas or boxes with goodies. Maybe next Olympics!

On his free time, Marvin loves skateboarding, wake boarding, and football.

Have a lovely Tuesday evening!

just because i can't kiss back, doesn't mean you can't kiss that.

San Francisco took a heavy all day long shower today. When it rains in the city, that essence of "Big City Life" that I dream of comes alive. Smokey steam dancing down wet busy streets. Patterns of umbrellas bumping edges on the sidewalks, mixed with the melodies of squeaking, lonely, rain boots. And poets, musicians, and finger painters, linger on their fire escapes smoking a few. The wind is howling feverishly outside and one Norwegian is ready to cuddle with you next to the fire.

Meet your friday night date, Petter Northug:

The "Smolder" 

Coming to us from Levanger, Norway, Petter just celebrated his twenty eighth birthday a month and a day ago (aka January 6th.)

The "I Want To Do Bad Things With You"

He is six foot one and is a motivated cross country skiier. His favorite part about cross country skiing is of course the tight full body spandex suits. (Oh wait.. that's my favorite part.)

The "Push Push Coast" 

The "I Just Got Out of Bed and Threw Some Pants On so I Could Do a Coffee Run For You Babe"

When he isn't training for Olympic Gold, you can find Petter on the soccer field (we love soccer boys here at Verbaledudette,) 

The "You Really Want to Watch The Notebook Instead of A Walk To Remember?"

playing on the computer, sleeping (and snuggling of course, what Norwegian doesn't like to cuddle? right sissy?) watching TV, and of course, eating a large meal.

The "Will You Be The Little Spoon To My Big Spoon?"

The "I'm Too Sexy For My Shirt"

The "Just Because I Can't Kiss Back, Doesn't Mean You Can't Kiss That."

Sexy Petter lives a double life (yes, similar to Hannah Montanna.) He came is 653rd place in the 2010 World Series of Poker. He is a fast paced athlete and a serious thinker with a slight gambling addiction. He could of been the winner, but he is humble and did not want to show off. So thoughtful. 

The "Hugs from Northug the Thug"

While you were/are watching the Opening Ceremonies tonight, did any cuties jump out at you that you think we need to bring in for further examination? Don't keep him to yourself! Share with me! 

Happy Friday! 

Perfectly toned to grab?

Who was born in Butte, Montana, is 5 foot 10 inches, and has a secret passion for painting when he is not fly fishing, tanning his six pack during his “fun in the sun” time, or being an Olympian mogul skier for the U.S. ski team?

Well it’s none other than sweet Bradley Wilson!

This June baby is 21 years old and has been skiing since he was four. His passion for skiing grew from small Discover Basin to World Cup venues, along with his older brother Bryon. (Check him out too - because cute genes run in the family! Oh baybay!)

I checked him out for you. One for you and one for me. 

winning medals along with future Verbaledudette Olympic Hotties from Canada.
(Can we please address his smile? Like goodness.. he should be in an Orbitz commercial because it's so lovely!)

This is his "Babe I cannot wait to put my tongue in your mouth
and French kiss you all the way down the hill" face. 

Now Bradley also is an artist.  After a long day of skiing he likes nothing more then to come home, drink red wine, wear a Snuggie, and paint with his bare hands because brushes are overrated. 

Well I don’t know this for certain, but I can only imagine this is how it happens. 

Brad’s (can I call you that babe?) art is inspired by his Montana home, drawing the landscapes and even animals that he grew up with. He has history in wood carving, sculptures, acrylics, and has recently picked up water colors. 

Imagine him as Leonardo Dicaprio and you are Kate Winslet. We all remember the naked drawing scene (or for you men, the scene where you saw boobs for the first time,) that eventually led to the steamy hand slapping carriage “ride.”

Want a little piece of Bradley to take with you? Check out his website: http://bradleywilsonstudios.com/. There are some splendid iPhone cases I have my eyes on (when they are not admiring the artist of course.)

So I found this quote by Brad where he talks about his love for the sport:

"What I love most about my sport is you always find yourself on the edge, the edge of skiing under control and skiing out of control. I also love how every day is different, every course every line every turn is so unique giving you a completely new challenge for every course you face." (t2foundation.co, 2012)

But when I read it, I really thought he was hiding something and was afraid to express his true feelings. So I helped him out, edited it a little, and made it the perfect love letter. And guess what.. It’s addressed to you!

"What I love most about my [relationship with you] is you always find [a way to make to make my heart beat quickly and your kisses give me an adrenalin rush similar to standing] on the edge, the edge of [utter desire. You make me feel like everything is] under control and [our sex is] out of control. I also love how every day is different, every course [we take at your favorite weekend couples class,] every detail in your [eye]line[r], every [time we take] turn[s sharing our emotions and talking things out,] is so unique[. It’s like you are] giving [me] a completely new [sense of excitement and you are a tasty] challenge for [me. You are my number one winning race baby, and I cannot help but smile everytime I see] you[r] face." (t2foundation.co + Audrey’s Love Help, 2012 + 2014 update to expose his true hidden desire.)

Much better. : )

Happy Thursday! And don’t forget to watch the opening ceremonies tomorrow! Let’s the games begin and may the hotties, be forever in your favor. (Or bed. Bed is good too.)

meet Russia's (legal) teen heart throb

Welcome to Verbaledudette’s Olympic Hotties 2014! We are finally here! And let me tell you, my computer is about to overheat because of this little folder on my desktop titled “BABES.” This folder holds over 100 of Sochi’s finest competitors from fifteen different event categories. I have everything from stocky hockey players (all teeth included,) to toned, yet graceful, aerialist skiers - and all of them are excited to meet you! So grab yourself a ice pack, because things are about to get toasty!

In honor of Russia’s first Olympic games, I felt it only right to begin the excitement with Russia’s goofy stanced, snowboarding half piper, (legal) teen heart throb, Nikita Avtaneev:

Born in Moscow, little Nikita didn’t even want to be a snowboarder. His parents gave him a snowboard as a Christmas present, even though he asked for a video game console. After staring at it for a few weeks, he decided to give it a try. And thank goodness he did!

"there's room for you on this bean bag
- we just have to snuggle.. is that okay?"

Not very many people can pull off the Russia MuffMuff hat. 

Nikita is 18, born September 5th, and currently stands as a perfect 6 foot tall beauty. (I don't know about you, but I would fit perfectly under his arm.) This baby face sweetheart is a student of physical culture (oh yeah? tell me more…) sport, youth, and tourism (yes, i would love to travel the world with you and your perfectly coiffed hair.)

"hey baby, fall is my favorite season because you
looks so cute in sweaters. let's cuddle." - said Nikita to you
(not really. don't quote this.)

He holds the award title of “Master of Sport of National Class in Russia.” Not quite Prince Charming, but it has more syllables and has the word Master in it, so are we really going to complain?  

look at that arm.. um hello mister muscles! Do you have a tighter tank top?

Yes, he does speak English, so communication will not be a problem. Can you only imagine how cute he sounds ordering your favorite kind of pizza in broken English and a sultry Russian accent? Mmmm yes.

injured & in a hot tub - we know what that means!
Steamy feel better kisses! 

Want to do some further research? Check out his instagram: http://instagram.com/avtaneev! Drool all you want and double click a photo to see a heart over his sweet smile!

Are we getting warmer? I know, I know, he is a bit young and you are eager for the MEN, but let me tell you - good things come to those who wait.

до свидания!

(that means “bye” in Russian. at least, that’s what Google just told me.)

ALSO - remember you can get all the sexy inside scoops on https://www.facebook.com/verbaledudette !! This includes updates on new posts & even some extra cuties on the side we don’t have time to examine thoroughly - it’s just perfect to go with that little snack on your lunch break!

Sochi, Russia?

The 2014 Olympic Winter Games are taking place in Sochi, Russia, in 23 days, and as an introduction to the ever so popular "Olympic Hottie of the Day," starting February 5th here on Verbaledudette, I am going to Google search, cut and paste, and share with you a few interesting facts about the 22nd Winter Games location. 

Sochi is a city in Krasnodar Krai, Russia. It is located on the coast of the Black Sea near the border between Georgia and Russia. It is considered the longest city in Europe (approximately 148 kilometers, or in American terms, 92 miles.) Oddly enough it is considered a resort city with a humid subtropical climate. AKA - hot summers and mild winters. (Well, this would explain the lack of snow. Awkward..) Sochi's population is approximately 400,000 people. This is also Russia's first tim hosting the Winter Olympics, but the Soviet Union hosted the 1980 Summer Olympics in Moscow. The 2014 Sochi Olympics are estimated to be the costliest ever, at $50 billion. 

Now let's get to business, I am so excited to start the collecting of the beautiful, brawny, and gold medal hopefuls of the 2014 Olympic Winter Games. 

As some of you may know, this countdown was inspired by my infatuation with sexy soccer boys of the African World Cup and soon after that I realized that my sex appeal carried over to the sports hosted by the Summer Olympics. 

Lately, I have found a sense of mystery with the men of the Winter Games. See, in both soccer and Summer sports, we see the men in less clothes already because well, it's hot and they don't need them. BUT during the winter, those beautiful bodies are covered by fabric in order to protect their toes (and other things) from frost bite. I find it my duty to not only uncover their sexiest secrets and turn ons, but also undress these athletes for your enjoyment. 

I am honored to educate you on the babes of Games. 

Researching and sorting through so many hunks is a hard job that often leaves me breathless and sometimes I almost find myself on the floor with a heart attack and blushed cheeks. It is a dangerous job, but it is something I find important to share with you, so it is worth the risk. This year, I have reached out for help from not only a dear friend, but a hot boy lover as well. I am pleased to introduce Cheryl. 

(this is cheryl. isn't she adorable?)

She may be short in height, but what she lacks in inches, she gains in charisma, sarcasm, and a high knowledge of what is hot and what is not. I am so excited to have her on my team! 

Do you want to be apart of the Verbaledudette Hottie Search and Analysis team? Message me and give me an example of who you think Verbaledudette should highlight as a hottie. Your choice may be used in the countdown and you may be asked to help bring to the surface his hottest qualities. Remember, the only requirements are that he MUST be on an 2014 Winter Olympic Team and he MUST be good looking or charming or have something incredibly appealing about them. 

Have a lovely evening & happy hottie hunting! I will see you on the 5th!
