He’ll send back some good vibes and a few good words!

Dear Goodologist,

I don’t feel so good. All I do is work, go home, then go back to work. I think it’s winter, but I’m not sure. Please help me.

Dear SITSOSO,

I don’t need a tongue depressor to know that you are afflicted with “the ruts.” My prescription? Intensive high-altitude treatments. So next time you leave your house, bypass work and head straight to Northstar-at-Tahoe.


Dear Goodologist,

Maybe you can settle this. My roommate and I can’t agree on what makes a day good. I say it’s 10 inches of fresh pow-pow, good vibes and short lift lines. She says it’s 12 hours at work, moving the needle and shifting a paradigm. Who’s right? We have a pack of coolers riding on it.

Dear Triple-E,

Congratulations, you just scored yourself a 4-pack. Every schoolchild knows that a good day is spent knee deep in fresh Tahoe powder. Tell your poor, sick roommate to take two lift tickets and call me in the morning. Why, on December 21, they’ll only cost $35 to celebrate the mountain’s 35th anniversary.


Confidential to: Loves Our Stairs Especially Rails,

Dear LOSER,

I understand your concern for the well-being of the rails at Northstar Resort, but believe you me, I have spent many an hour communing with said safety devices and they assure me that they actually love the feeling of ski and board edges gently caressing their surfaces. Ask them for yourself at the annual Pinball Rally Freestyle “Jib for Kids Rail Jam” on Sunday, December 9.


Dear Goodologist,

I’ve been dating this great guy for over two years now. Everything was perfect until I went snowboarding last winter. You see, he hates snow, and when he found out I was killin’ it in the pow-pow, he flipped his lid. I threw away my board and promised to never ride again. But now winter’s around the corner and I’m getting those old cravings back. What should I do?

Dear JOTS,

If your boyfriend isn’t enabling your powder addiction, then he clearly doesn’t love you. It’s time to drop that zero and get with a hero. (Or a Goodologist, perhaps.) In fact, you can meet plenty of hunky powderhounds at Northstar-At-Tahoe’s New Year’s Eve Fire & Ice Party this December 31st.


Dear Goodologist,

I’m a dad with 3 boys, ages 7, 10 and 15. Lately, their attitudes have been, well, jaded. Where can I take them that isn’t “totally lame,” a “complete suckfest,” or “awesomely craptacular?”

Signed,

Dear UTBC,

Let me hazard a guess: those boys have been cooped up indoors with their video games, TV and text messaging, the 3-headed hydra of brattiness. Drag those malcontents up to Northstar™ Resort and turn them loose on the Parks and Pipes. As every Goodologist knows; the higher the altitude, the better the attitude.
