Are you my father?

My mom told me a story about how she had a boyfriend with a Stingray. I then questioned why she would choose someone like my father, who is a outlaw redneck with a mullet and drove an El Camino with a lift kit. She laughed and said "not a Corvette, a Schwinn." After hearing that I told her the question about my father still stood.

21st late night


I am listening to this right now. Super sweet jam.

Snoop


Alright, I am not the biggest fan of Lance, but I love the D-O-Double G.

They grow up so fast

Seems just like yesterday Mitch was stripping out his BB shell and now look at him, installing his own threaded fork.

Jared's 30th Birthdays: Behind the decks

I djed Rad's birthday. What a party! It was such a great time. As more people rode the pump track it smoothed out a lot thus making the riders fast.

D Pow, laying the ground for future generations.
Rad getting air

Linds and Mikey: Team White

Later once the boys got enough whiskey in them they decided we need to put Jared's couch in the back of his truck.


This is when I left.

Atlin's third period art class

Don't call it a comeback

Sure was good to see Rubin back in action. He has been putting his nose inn the books and using the try hard part of his brain. Now, it's summer and we should be seeing more of him.

I am my own mechanic


I stayed late to put my Rival/Red on my bike. Holy crap. What a huge difference from Ultegra. It seems so much more thought out. The ergo pistol grip on the hoods, the sweet finish on the shifters, the internal cable routing, the different cable routing options are just a few reasons why I love SRAM. Thank you SRAM for making me and my bike cooler.

Best tip?

As you know I like to keep it on the funny side of things. Make jokes. Have some laughs. This is no joke. A customer dropped off a dvd of him starring in some necro porn. See, usually this would be where the punch line would come in, but not in this case. Necro porn, yo. No joke.

Bummed out

I have been reading a lot about the oil spill and it's been getting me down. I searched youtube to find videos to pick me up a little. Here are my favorite ways oil is used (besides the obvious ones like food transportation ). I used to frequent these events when I was a wee one with my outlaw father, T.K.

BLAM!

Holy crap.

Ampersand: 16mm beer commercials

We went to Ampersand last night for some sweet projector action and I was not disappointed. I had an awesome time. Tom Robinson (not to be confused with the author Tom Robbins)shared his 16mm commercials with us. Most were beer, but there was some cigarette commercials and a couple of coffee ones too. It was an enchanting evening.



I don't drink the 'cohol so I brought sparkling apple cider. No one knew that I was fakin.

All City shows the BLAM some love

All City is one of the sponsors for the next event and I got their package today... along with a little note on the front.

SRAM and Amanda sittin in a tree


My boy, Willy, hinted that there was some new parts headed my way for my Tonic, but what I didn't expect was season 4 of the Office. Could my life get any sweeter?

heck, that's different

Before you even boot this gem up to watch, do me a favor. Skip the first minute. You don't need to waste your time with that. After that make sure you turn your volume down- way down. The song sucks so badly that I would feel a little guilty if you had to endure that just because I told you to watch it.

Rock and/or Roll

I am on break, eating my soupy, and reading a blog that I enjoy called Bike Jerks. I saw this video and had to repost it because the drummer is my new favorite guy. Rock n Roll courses through his veins. Reach for the stars. Pay no attention to the dude on the mic, it's all about the drummer.

this guy was really going for it

I saw this guy crossing the bridge on my way home for work last night and he was Jammin with a capital J. He was playing a polka-y tune, but below I pick out the song I wish he was playing.
