the longer and longer i am away from my family i realize more and more i am trying to get away… from what i am still not sure… i love my family and friends with all of my heart… i owe my entire life to them… i am indebted to them forever… they are really all i have…
i wish i understood more of why i am keeping myself distant from them… they love and support me beyond anything i could type in this passage… being away from them makes me uncomfortable… but i embrace that insecurity… whenever i am with my friends and/or family there is never a dull moment… they make me feel amazingly comfortable… at home…
i wanna continue my experiences in life with more randomness and awkwardness… when i am away from my family i can find discomfort… insecurity… doubt… and fear… sounds like a bunch of shitty feelings but they are real… that is a huge shout out to my family! your support, love, and understanding cannot be replicated…
i guess i wrote this to shout out to my family that they kick ass and melt faces… i also wanted to reiterate to people that you cannot find yourself if you are always in your comfort zone… get out… whatever that means to you… get out.
peace and noLove!

here is a lil video on how to roast a pig named Larry… sorry about the lack of shredding but we had some serious work to do… it takes about 18+ hours to cook one of these piggies… enjoy!

i don’t know if i have written about the police… i think i have before… this one should be a bit more fun…
i was recently issued a ticket for skateboarding on a pedestrian mall (16th Street Mall in Denver)… i was on my way to a bus to get to the airport… i had a few bags with me… i was not skating fast, but casually… i was listening to my headphones when i catch out of the corner of my eye an awesome human with a navy blue jumpsuit on waving me over… i was so mesmerized by his dope gear that i had to see what was up…
as i approached him, i removed my headphones and said, “what’s up?”… he asked for my ID and he began quizzing me about the most amazing things in my life… my favorite was when he asked me where i lived… i told him downtown… and he said, “oh, so you know that you cannot skateboard on the mall, right?”… licking my chops and planning my next sarcastic/smart ass reply, i exclaimed, “yep!”… he was taken back… i mean, so surprised that i said i knew riding skateboards on the mall was prohibited… this is when the conversation got spicy…
he asked why was i shredding on the mall… i told him i didn’t care about the law… he didn’t like that… he told me he could arrest me for saying that… i said, “you can, but that would not be cool”… we continued to chat…
i started telling him that i believe in my own personal morals in what is right and wrong… little laws like the one i was getting busted for was one (of many) that i do not care for… he didn’t like this… he went on a rant about if we all decided on which laws we would like to abide by there would be chaos… i told him i agree fully but i am a good person… my morals are solid… he again did not like this and threatened me with arrest…
the best part of all this happening was the cop deciding when or when not to write tickets for people breaking the law… the entire time i was getting a ticket, people on their bikes were cruising by (which is also prohibited)… these people were merely told to get off the bike… no ticket issued… nothing… he was proving my point that we use our discretion and morals to decide what is right and wrong! he didn’t even realize it… i love it…
i also want to take a moment to hit on the laws we have created to keep everyone under control… they are insane and outlandish! i will continue to skate on the 16th street mall… we need to do a better job of teaching the youth of what is right and wrong… we also need to do a better job of teaching what is important and what is not…
peace and noLove!

we are always trying to figure out our purpose in life… we are constantly creating reasons for our existence… we do this to feel comfortable and secure… everyone has their own opinion…
i cannot come up with a concrete purpose for our existence… as we continue to adapt and progress, we destroy more of what is real… we take the real out of reality… we are socialized to follow and “eat what we are fed”…
although it is easier to follow, i believe we are all creators… it is in all of us to create… we are rarely given the opportunity to act out our creations… we are insecure about our thoughts because we assume they are not “normal” or widely accepted… nothing can be done if it is never started… if it is never started, then you will never know if it is something beautiful…
what i am trying to say is our purpose in this life is to create… you take that passion in your life and you create from it… you do whatever it takes to make your passion your life… that is your purpose… you deserve to express yourself in this life… your thoughts are needed… we are crumbling as a society because we act like sheep… don’t follow the herd…
create your life!

my latest silly little life dichotomy is about people that care about not caring…
some people have a certain demeanor that makes me feel like they don’t give a shit about anything… but this demeanor and image refutes this person’s entire existence! they are showing off that they don’t care about anything… but if they need to display that then they care!
oh, i love it… it makes me laugh… i give a shit about not giving a shit…
(sorry if this wisdom is weird or makes no sense… i didn’t express this thought well at all…)

these doods are from the east coast… they hit us up via email to show us some of their footage… it is pretty ill… after going through a bunch of their stuff, i picked this clip…
it reminded me of the good ol’ days… skating in casts in the backyard… thanks ECSC (east coast skate crew)! epic!
