At least someone's putting my turntables to use...

This damn bottle always ends up on the coffee table and will stay on there for days. Ikea should make a table with a condiment container.

walking the animal

My first impression of Alondra Park was it's a bum's playground. Then I started noticing the same bums there everyday. It's cool because not only are they nice but they take really good care of the park. One day I'm going to post a blog about the bums there, but today was dedicated to walking our little monster Charlie.

This is Charlie's "mad dog."

I see a lot of people fishing in this lake but never seen a fish...








I win...

Also, make sure you always watch out for the rape vans that park here...

I got this mixtape last year at the Clothing Convention (Magic) in Vegas. Surprisingly Rockport Shoes was the one that put it out. No hip hop just music to cruise down PCH to. Hope you enjoy!

In with the new

Since I'm getting too old I felt like I needed a reason to still push around on my skateboard. And surprisingly even though the bones I've broken didn't heal right, I still feel like I can progress even more and learn new tricks. I decided to put an ad online offering skateboard lessons in Venice Beach and to my surprise, people started responding! At first I was gonna flake and not go through with it because I have no experience teaching and was kinda nervous but the fact people were so interested and was fine paying $45 an hour, hell might as well haha! This was my first victim Austin, he lives in San Francisco but was visiting for the weekend. I was hyped when he told me his favorite skateboarder was Stevie Williams, I showed him Stevie's number in my phone and he almost passed out.



In a little less than 2 hours Austin learned 4 new tricks including this boardslide on the flat bar. Definitely a successful day!

His ears stick straight up, his body is getting longer (and fatter) and his legs are staying the same size.

The hamburgler...

Tonight we decided to make burgers...

80/20 ground sirloin, cheddar cheese, grilled onions on a toasted sweet onion bun

Tailgate party?

We're so hyped on getting a little BBQ that we've learned to say "Fuck it I don't care what people think, we're bbq'ing in the parking lot."

The set up

This chicken has been marinating in the frig for the past 2 days

Waiting

Charlie eating anything on the ground

and a lot of BEER!!!

The end result- Smokey, charcoal goodness...
