Courage to Stand, Sit, Etc.

It appears that the intro to Shitheads 2012 was leaked to Tim Pawlenty's camp, who copied it, almost frame for frame, replacing Meyer's monologue with T-Paw's. This will not be tolerated.

NY is on some MN shit as of late.

This actually happened at the Lair today. Bobby Puleo reference explained here. "Spot rape" is an incredibly stupid phrase.

Gonna skate in this tomorrow night. Old dudes unite.

Happy Weekend.

Gentrified.

So much goodness in this clip.

The Hesh lays it out for you.

Quartersnacks discusses declines in skate video music.

Hubba's going away, again, but forever?

In Transit

Chuck Odima comes through with a couple of edits of footage he shot, some stuff you've seen, some stuff you haven't. Hopefully there's more in the future. Proper East Coast vibe.

Brain Quake

Minneapolis was once again a destination for KOTR. The crash-up at The Hiawatha sounded way more epic than it looked, though Thrasher still claims Wizard cast a curse. By the way, get better Wiz!

Jerboi Tim Olson is taking the term "man am" to new heights. Here's to a belated career!

Jackal has a new offer:

Quartersnacks waxes poetically about camo pants. I had a pair that were reliably Army surplus--my dad's--that in latter days were cut off into camo shorts, and eventually got lost to history.

A camo aside: I always thought that Gino was wearing a desert camo shirt during his first line in Trilogy, and I searched for a similar shirt for years. However, upon watching the DVD reissue like, last week (close viewing of the Youtube clip which must have been ripped from a DVD as well), I realized that a conspiracy of washed out Hi8 footage transferred to VHS was lying the whole time. It's a jungle camo shirt, not desert. His khakis should have given it away, but how sick of an outfit is a desert camo T with khakis?

Chances that Davis is working on some e-foote that'll come out concurrently with the Real video? I say high.

Nesser is making me jealous.

Booster Club

Westgate. I heard his new shoe only comes in size 7 or smaller. Quartersnacks gives him the probably not premature "kickflip of the year," even for a video released on 1/15 (along with a proper comparison to Kalis' Lynx wearing gem). Unless Reynolds decides to bring it, or 1995's Tom Penny appears (using Dyrdek's time machine, or something), that's a safe bet.

Bratrud continues to push the limits on a single man's blogging ability, this time with The High 5's mini-blog the Digital Dump.

Get down with Already Been Done, aka ABD. I haven't noodled around with it very much yet, but things are looking good, and it's headed by such notables as 411VM honcho Josh Friedberg and fellow TSMer Rob Brink. Check back and often.

Your favorite Wiskaters and Gorfers are profiled here on a Milwaukee city livin' site. Memorize Pizzy's quote and recite it back to him next time you see him.

I claimed that by banning Rashad McCants I ruined his NBA career. Need more proof? Look no further.

The first Plat poll in a while, at the request of (some) of the Flow Trash makers.

Pawn your VX for an SLR...Radical video joining the Ty Evans tradition of credits being longer than the feature. Jerboi Davis is in there, and I say this only out of admiration and propsgiving, but its so rad that that nerd is sorta famous. Dude rips!
