the best skateboarder of all time. forever hands down. if god created a skateboarder and then maybe the devil added his 69 cents.

a good show tomorrow night at bottom of the hill. it's a benefit show for a young family that just lost their dad in a tragic accident.

i really liked this movie.

doesn't feel like a movie that would be made in the politically correct 2014.
good and dark.  The valley girl man made a good comeback.

and now a word from our sponsor

these little -mothers- fuckers. hands down the best.
not rockabilly turned chopper guy.
not emo band turned stoner metal.
not junkie turned yuppie.
not  ford turned chevy.
oh, not fixie turned chopper.
not veggie turned vegan, turned tube steak.

just 100% original i've joined the circus.... cookie.

jimmy the monk sent this killer drawing his buddy Ed of me from a while back.

thanks so much ed and jimmy.

a keeper.

happy 52 mr. Ian MacKaye

thanks for all the words and tunes and company in my head. 

never forget the first time i heard minor threat -salad days- coming

out of my little fm radio, tuned to the local college station.... and

thinking -what the fuck is this?- i was blown away, and have remained

a fan ever since.  pour out all that emotion for all us emotional freaks,

and let us listen in and touch our hand to the wall at night.

and this song predicted my future...

I want to tell you a little story
'Cause it makes me warm inside
It's about some friends growing up
And all the things they tried
I'm not talking about staple shit
They went for something more
I guess it was too much dreaming
Too much to hope for

One day something funny happened
But it scared the shit out of me
Their heads went in different directions
And their friendship ceased to be (x2)

Someday, look back and laugh...

I'm telling you I want it to work!
I don't like being hurt!
Something's not right inside!
And I can't always put it aside...
What can we do, what can we do?

Try! (x4)

Fuck it man!

I guess I make too much shit
Someday we'll look back and laugh

I'm telling you I want it to work!
I don't like being hurt!
Something's not right inside!
And I can't always put it aside...
What can we do, what can we do?

Try! (x4)

Fuck it man!

I guess I make too much shit
Someday we'll look back and laugh

Mr. Present, go away
Come back and fuck with us some other day
Mr. Feelings, run and hide
You have no right to what you feel inside
Motherfuckers, quick to kiss
Talk your shit, but don't fuck with this
All I want to know...
All I want to know is
Am I holding on? Am I moving on?
What can we do, what can we do? (x4)

Try! (x4)

found these online. 2007

they're a lil too high def for me but nice shots none the less.

just a bunch of stuff "some skater bolted together"

i'll stick to this kind of thing, it's what i like and makes me smile.

not trying to reinvent the wheel, don't want a bike that looks like

the space shuttle or a car. some things are rad for a reason, because they are purely

just rad. they ignite something time less and forever.  i really like the beginning

of led zeppelins song (when the levee breaks) and i really like

the beginning of Fugazis (waiting room).... i think i always will.

Remember when Sammy Hagar started singing for Van Halen, that

fucking sucked so bad. More range, more technique with his voice, maybe?

but it lost it's balls and no longer made you want to jump off the back

of the couch and kick your brother in his head. 

By trying to do  something so different it's already wrong because you're trying

so hard, maybe those crazy pipes or bars or both got so much attention

cause they looked totally tough. In the end that new shit.... how does it

feel 100miles from home? Does it create the same feeling as your first bike

did when you crossed your first state line? 

have fun putting your bikes together, have fun puttin

down the road.
