Signed, Sealed.

Just a cool photo...

Luke links to Ragsdale's photos from last month's BUBD 4. Good times but the Rags took off too early.

Oh contract work. McGuire gets photo credit in the Time's Home & Garden section, but I have a feeling it's only going to be a resume builder.

Take a trip down the rabbit's hole with the amazing Longform.org. One gem found there is this '92 Village Voice write up about Gator. If one must quibble, Corey Johnson spelled "lien" wrong.

As I write this, it's still Davis' birthday. Happy birthday fewl.

CJ's beard continues to amaze.

This might be showing my youth in skateboarding, but that was the first time I had heard the full Gator story. Pretty intense.

For what it's worth, reading that filled in a lot of holes in the story for me. I'd always thought the girl he killed was in the Tom Petty video; that's proven to be false.

Never watched it but I know there's a documentary about the life and times of gator.

It's called 'Stoked: The Rise and Fall of Gator' and I think its on Netflix Instant.

I think that's it Ingmar Bergman in the picture, on the set of the Seventh Seal. Just sayin'

Ben, yup. I pretend they're playing chess. The post title was a glancing reference to the film.
