August 14th 2008 - This is the best thing I have seen in years
While I was posting this awesome biography video, I started to think..... This is what happens to a person who skates as
hard as they can thinking because I work so hard at it I must be able to do something with it and make a living with it. Than
the harsh reality of injuries come into play......the harder you push your self the harderyou ....get FUCKED UP!!!! Blah blah I just
turned 33 just got put on probation again and still am having one hell of a time kicking the damn dope habit... Just a few
nights ago I was lying awake in a jail cell thinking how bad I need to change my life...that my friends is what you
call a fox hole prayer. I am out now and once again putting 2 and 2 together just to survive..When I out 10% of the effort
into doing the next right thing for myself the results I saw were nothing short of miraculous.. I am hoping to put an end to
it all soon and giving felatio to the business end of a hand gun or just doing 2 more bags than I know I should in one shot
just to see what happens...No.....by putting an end to it all I mean I am going to once again tuck my tail between my legs and
join a rehab and finally deal with the issues and heartaches that led me to the needle again in the first place. Whe the
doctor hits your knee with that hammer thing , the reaction is usually to kick or something like that. When the world puts
the screws to me my reaction is to accidentally fall into a 250 dollar a day dope habit ...well I said enuff and hopefully next
time I add some shit I am in a better place ....Until than go fuck your mother
the theme for the day was definitely "the day of stolen thunder" i am so dissapointed with the attitude of the "newer"
younger generation of skaters. it was never more evident than it was today. the battlecat i can ollie higher than you shit is OUT! the fact that i havent slept for days and have been in a drug induced zombification daze may have added to it. but I must say it sucks to watch someone try their hardest to land a tre flip and than watch some jerk off with sunglasses pull it with ease and say "look we both can do it" every skater knows the feeling of being taken out. it just seems to be a part of the daily life of a skater today. the overwehelming atmosphere of "i am better than you and you know it" sucks to me and I hate it so much that i almost am embarassed to say that i skate because I dont want to be looked at like a battlecat and some type of conceeded asshole that flaunts their skills and skates not for the love of it. but the ability to throw crap in the face of some one that you should be encouraging and not "stealing their thunder"

here are a few pics of the spot which is sick

This little clip is a collection of old skate clips that span the career of most of
the skateboarders that had some type effect on my life and my skating
some of them made it and some of them didnt....but most of us in this
video just remember that skateboarding made us what we are today, and
speaking for myself these times and the friends I had and made while growing up
skateboarding will never be matched and never have been matched doing
anything else. in this insane journey that I call my life. i will never forget
the good old days
