I started a little experiment on Twitter called “Dutch Idioms“. Every work day I will tweet a Dutch idiom translated (rather literally) into English. Follow it and get ready for some funny/weird sayings. And see if you can figure out the English equivalent!
Man, I can’t believe we are still running this shit right here? What have you been doing lately? I’ll let you know what I’ve been doing…straight fucking grinding. I don’t think I’ve hustled like this in a long time. Anyway enough about me what shows have you been watching? I’m watching the following: Ice Road Truckers and Expedition Africa all on the History Channel. First of all, those history channel muthafukas need to shrink that logo down a bit. It’s so big and takes up a good portion of my screen while I’m watching the show. I know I’m watching it on the History Channel, I don’t need to be reminded the entire time. Anybody take a branding class? Fuck. Not to mention they have this 1990’s tech-like graphic bar that tells me about some other show coming up next. I don’t give a fuck about the other show, I’m watching this one and you are blocking more of the screen. Between the gigantic logo and this Flash 3 banner I can’t see the show. If you haven’t seen any of the two shows I mentioned you need to check them out regardless of the branding cluster fuck. Now lets move onto Ice Truckers. Ice Truckers is about these insane dudes and one dudette that drive huge big rigs on the most deadliest road in the united states. I’m talking, ice, snow and other truckers all doped up on NoDoze. The show is crazy and stressful but awesome to watch. Expedition Africa is about these Type A-Alpha outdoor types retracing Dr. Livingstons’s expedition through Africa. The social dynamic is amazing and worth watching. Got any thoughts on the shows or have a show we should be watching? If you are still out there let’s discuss. (sound of cricketts)
This is my feeble attempt at creating a shirt for the OC Fixed scene.
It’s based on that awesome/awful TV show “The OC”. Just like the show there’s tons of drama on the OC Fixed forum so I figured this design would be appropriate.
The shirt is printed with some Eco friendly water based ink on American Apparel shirts (#2001) and comes in sizes M, L and XL.
I’m selling these for only $10. Shipping is $5. Leave a note on the PayPal order if you want to pick up the shirt at my house or on a ride, and I will reimburse the $5 shipping. Sorry NO international shipping.
Shirt is kinda limited edition. So hurry up and buy before they are gone!
Use this super handy PayPal widget to buy a shirt:
You should vote Republican too. Fuck it, it might be awesome to see this whole shit storm we are in turn into some major shit hurricane. Just think how rad it would be to say that our vice president is some thing out of a bad “Disney Movie”. Besides, I’m over the environment, that shit is so 2007. I’m also into watching all the war footage on Fox and seeing things blow up from the safety of my home (which was bought through the awesomeness of deregulation).
I’m also super excited for the fact that Palin will be the next president in probably less than 2 years.
Instead of looking at the facts I’m voting based on my gut feeling.
Man I can’t believe my shit got hacked. I thought that only happened in the movies or to big corpo types. I thought some thing might go down when Bobby told me his site got hacked and then Rob Brink said his also got hacked. I then decided to look at my site and I noticed some strange crap popping up. It was lame and what was even more lame is that my images got jacked. I was able to save the site and copy-paste the jacked code with the proper code. Now when I see those WP updates I’ll be sure to jump on it. Oh and learned to run more back ups. I hate the internet (except for the slap message boards..of course)
My buddy Nic was in town this weekend to look for an apartment since he will be joining Incase soon.
Naturally I took him out for a bike ride. I showed him a bunch of skate spots in Orange and other points of interests.
We’re cruising around Orange High School and I notice a little shortcut in between some bars. I accelerate a bit… and all of sudden I’m flying through the air and crash hard on the ground.
This has been a somewhat “controversial” topic on the LA Fixed forum, but having lived in both Los Angeles and now in Orange County, and seeing how big the scene in Orange County is, I figured Orange County deserves it’s own forum.
I opted to go with free forum hosting by lefora. It’s different than the forum software used on most fixie forums, but it has some awesome features. The coolest one being that in order to embed a photo or video, all ya have do is paste URL of the picture, Flickr page or YouTube page and the forum will embed it. No more clicking buttons. Oh… and did I mention it’s FREE?
So for all you fixters living in Orange County, check out: Orange County Fixed.
My buddy Bengus just noticed that my online nerd name “huphtur” is in the Fully Flared intro. I thought he was April fooling me until Dude sent me a screen grab from the YouTube clip.
On the top right step at the 4:03 mark, it clearly says: HUPHTUR.
For those who haven’t seen Fully Flared yet (shame on you, you’re no real skater!) here’s the amazing intro. And also check out this interview with Ty Evans (the filmer/director of Fully Flared).
Shit, I haven’t been here long enough to realize what I’m missing. But I’m stoked to get back to LA and the warm weather!
Almost half my life has been wasted on this thing called IRC. For you n00bz out there, IRC is the oldest and most chaotic chat network ever. It’s like walking into a super loud and packed bar. I mostly hang out in #skate (on efnet) and have seen a ton of nerd come and go. I even met some amazing #skate people in real life.
A few months ago some oldskooler joined the channel and asked where everyone was. That got me thinking, so I decided to do some research.
