Wake and Make...

...courtesy of Michael McDermott.
The wake and make is a new method to making your bed in the morning.

Instead of going through the hassle and frustration of getting out of your warm, comfy bed and making it in the cold with your tired freshly waken body you can do it in the comfort of said bed.

It's simple, while still in your warm bed, grab each corner of your blanket with your hands and feet and do a starfish to spread the blanket across your bed. Now that your blanket is fully spread across your bed lift one side up and roll out. Now fold that side back over and give the blanket a little tug. You're done! How easy was that?!?

WAKE AND MAKE!!

You Know How I Know You're Gay??

I'm Back!!

Palm Springs kinda sucks.....it's pretty much only fun if you like Golf or gay bars....although I didn't really have much time to see what it offered, that was my first impression. But I did get to hang out with Eric Koston, Rick Howard, Mike Carroll, Brian Anderson, and Guy Mariano. That was pretty amazing...I was a little star struck. And the new Fourstar Clothing line for Fall 08 get's two thumbs way up!!
Here's a couple pics for you....

How amazing is this pillow?? Hugs, puppies, cash, and gin

Sonny Bono is a hero in Palm Springs...there are creepy statues and crap everywhere.

Weird weather in the Palm Spizzy...they had snow in the desert!!

Palm Springs

Don't expect many posts for the next couple days as i'm going to Palm Springs for work and Helmet doesn't really post anymore. I might have some sweet photos for you from the trip. More shralpness will occur upon my return.....

New Sequence

Helmet does a blazing Smith grind 180 out in his blazing red sweater....Shralp

Cosby - Real Talk

Everybody's favorite Jello spokesperson speaks out regarding black youth and parenting (read below)....sounds like somebody's a little angry...
On a lighter note, check out Bill's sweet sweater...Amazing!!

"They're standing on the corner and they can't speak English. I can't even talk the way these people talk:
Why you ain't,
Where you is,
What he drive,
Where he stay,
Where he work,
Who you be...

And I blamed the kid until I heard the mother talk. And then I heard the father talk. Everybody knows it's important to speak English except these knuckleheads. You can't be a doctor with that kind of crap coming out of your mouth.

In fact you will never get any kind of job making a decent living. People marched and were hit in the face with rocks to get an education, and now we've got these knuckleheads walking around.

The lower economic people are not holding up their end in this deal.

These people are not parenting. They are buying things for kids. $500 sneakers for what ? ? And they won't spend $200 for Hooked on Phonics.

I am talking about these people who cry when their son is standing there in an orange suit. Where were you when he was 2 ? ? Where were you when he was 12 ? ? Where were you when he was 18 and how come you didn't know that he had a pistol ? ? And where is the father ? ? Or who is his father ?

People putting their clothes on backward: Isn't that a sign of something gone wrong? People with their hats on backward, pants down around the crack, isn't that a sign of something ? Or are you waiting for Jesus to pull his pants up ?

Isn't it a sign of something when she has her dress all the way up and got all type of needles [piercing] going through her body? What part of Africa did this come from?? We are not Africans. Those people are not Africans; they don't know a thing about Africa .. With names like Shaniqua, Taliqua and Mohammed and all of that crap, and all of them are in jail.

Brown or black versus the Board of Education is no longer the white person's problem. We have got to take the neighborhood back. People used to be ashamed. Today a woman has eight children with eight different 'husbands' -- or men or whatever you call them now.

We have millionaire football players who cannot read. We have million-dollar basketball players who can't write two paragraphs. We, as black folks have to do a better job. Someone working at Wal-Mart with seven kids, you are hurting us.

We have to start holding each other to a higher standard. We cannot blame the white people any longer."

Dr. William Henry "Bill" Cosby, Jr., Ed.D.

On A Related Note....

Tupac is alive!!! He was spotted at the 17th Annual Gumbo Cook Off at the Sandestin country club in Florida.
The Proof is in the pudding.

The Ultimate Question...answered

So Crailtap has a poll up on their blog site right now asking the ultimate hip-hop question...."Who's better. Biggie or Tupac?".
Regardless of what you believe is the correct answer, Sam Smyth, the team manager at Girl Skateboards, brings up some valid points. Here's what he had to say:
"Biggie or 2Pac is the most arbitrary comparison ever made. People only make it because of the beef. There really is no comparison. 2Pac's body of work far out shines Biggie's. Tupac starred in seven critically acclaimed movies, and spawned countless documentaries and DVDs. Tupac released five albums before his death, and 7+ after. He wrote one book, and ten have been written about him. Biggie put out one album before he was killed, one after. The remix albums Bad Boy scraped together was all shit from before his first album. If 2Pac would have lived past 25, he would have destroyed Biggie, then moved on to beefin' with the next biggest fish. Biggie would have been forgotten and no one would have made the comparison."

Ramp Progress

The ramp is almost complete....looks like all they needed was some beer (and monetary donations from amazing individuals).
I don't know about you but i'm gonna go skate it tonight...hopefully!
