Iiiiiiii’mmmmm Back! Kind of…

Laying back on the wall...

So I went to the doctor yesterday and she has released me under the condition that I don’t do anything high impact. Which in most cases people would think I couldn’t skateboard… Oh how wrong… I can ride transition till my wheels fall off… I can skate down the street… I can do more now than I have done in the last 4 months. I am very happy  to be back and look forward to my Thursday and Sunday sessions…

Shitty thing is the day I am released and wanting to just cruise around the neighborhood… it rains! Mother nature is a cunt! I have been patient this long…

Hiding under a rock…

lastfmlogo

I don’t know if I have just been hiding under a rock and missed something, but I found last.fm the other day and completely impressed I am! You get such a wide range of music that I haven’t discovered before. I am so hooked on this… It is a great way to find new music, especially in a time where I get bored so easily with what I am listening to on a daily basis.

If you are further behind than me check it out!

Social Networking…

I am confused by the need to keep up with my social networking groups… pages and such… I think they are entertaining at first, but that drops off kinda quickly. They end up boring me rather quickly… Kinda like my IM client accounts… I don’t really find a need to “chat” unless there is something that is needed for work. For me it has come to a quick way to send links rather than having to open up an email add user/subject/body copy & send… Maybe I am just burn out on interaction of the internet.

I still like my RSS feeds and reading what other people post, new code and PS tutorials, but as for participation is concerned I am happier just keeping to myself. And I say this as I am writing a post of my blog… oh my own irony… Maybe today is just another mood… bad sleep as of last night I fell asleep on the couch watching Forensics Files again… my own personal rerun…

WTF Skate Fashion..?

What is this a bad rendition of the 80's?
I recieved the newest CCS catalog the other day in the mail and I am blown away at the majority of the use of color in the clothing… from pants, jeans, shirts, shoes… hats… dammit! I have no understanding of these new trends that are fading into skateboarding…? This bad 80’s rendition of clothing and colors…

Maybe I am just getting old and it seems silly to me, much like that pants at Hot Topic with all the chains and wide legs that cover your shoes… I just don’t get it. Sure, I wore a bit of the fluorescent colors when I was a kid in the 80’s, but this is all a bit much for my taste. The painted on jeans were bad enough and all the guys wearing girl jeans, please…

It is about as bad as 80’s glam metal clothing…
Fashion WTF?

Its funny these ads were released around the time when Nike gave its first go at making skateboard shoes. Although these adds were very good, they actually may have pushed skaters away further, by making it look like they were trying to hard to fit in w/ the skateboarding community. Now a couple of years later, Nike SB take 2, they are fully established as a shoe company for skateboarding. But there ads follow a more skateboard formulaic approach, trying not to stick out as much as the 11 billion dollar company they are. Nike had to wait out an entire generation of anti-corporate skateboarders and now they are accepted. I would rather have these kids save there money so they can buy alcohol or drugs instead of buying nikes. At least this way in there altered state they could actually realize the hipocracy which is nike in skateboarding. NIKE ISN’T SKATEBOARDING
