Kick, Push, Lasers!

• I've been listening to a new record from one of my favorite rappers today.
• He goes by the name Lupe Fiasco.
• I'm sure most of you have heard of him, and if you haven't listened to him before then get on it!
• His records, Food and Liquor as well as the The Cool are a must to check out!
• His new record, "Lasers" dropped on March 4th, I recommend you give it a good listen!
• I couldn't find links to any of the songs off of "Lasers", so I'm gonna link you to one of my favorite songs by him from his older stuff, it's called "Daydreamin" off of Food and Liquor
• Click on the music video to check it out
• Enjoy!

Mountain TIme!

• I finally got up to Baker yesterday.
• The anticipation was building up and I was getting an anxious feeling in my gut on the ride up because it's been a long time...about 3 weeks!
• It was a lot of fun, I hiked the backcountry with my good friend Mark and his girlfriend Meg.
• It was clear for most of the day, so visibility was great!
• After we hiked for about a quarter mile, we found a great spot to build a jump.
• It took some time to get it done, but it was worth it!
• The snow was so thick and fluffy, that we could try any trick we wanted.
• It was like landing in a foam pit, so if we messed up in the air we wouldn't have to worry about getting hurt one bit. I wish every jump was like that : )
• We took some pictures, I'm waiting on Mark to send them to me.
• In the meantime you guys sit tight , and wait for my song of the week!

Let me tell you a story...

• With the song of the week!
• I realized that I have not put up any hip hop songs up for the song of the week yet.
• This surprises me because I listen to hip hop about 80% of the time these days!
• Anyway the song of the week is from one of my all time favorites...Outkast!
• The song is called Da Art of Storytellin' (Part 1)
• Listen to the lyrics, good stuff!
• You can listen to it right here --------> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9o5IWYquj5c

Big wheels keep on turnin...

• Today was awesome!
• I got some brand new wheels yesterday (Pictured Above) and they are soooo smooth! 
• Nothing like riding on new wheels, they are your first contact point with the ground, so you can really feel them.
• I had a lot of fun breaking them in at an undercover lit spot tonight. 
• With the continuing nastiness of this weather, I have to scrounge for dry spots to skate!
• Good thing the weather has added some snow accumulation to Baker, and I am going Friday for sure...I have not been up in about 3 weeks!
• I am heading up with my new roomie, so a good time is guaranteed for the both of us!
• Wish me luck on my journey.
• Alright you guys take it easy...I'm out!

It's that time again...

• For the song of the week! 
• I know I am late on posting this, but I have another great song for you to caress your eardrums with...so don't fret!
• This one is from one of my favorite bands around.
• They go by the name "Protugal. The Man" these guys are sooooo good!
• They're from Alaska, and got big in Portland.
• The song I have for you is "The Sun" off of their record "The Satanic Satanist" (I know it sounds dark, but it really does not pertain to what the album is trying to coney)
• Give the whole album a listen when you get the chance, you won't regret it!
• Click here to listen! ------->http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ds2RrLNPAHc
• Enjoy this song, "The Sun" because the real one has not been deciding to show up in the past few weeks!

Troll Time!

• After living in Washington for 23 years I finally visited a Seattle Art Classic...
• The Fremont Troll!
• He's right under the Aurora Bridge, and he's amazing.
• If you get down there I highly suggest you stop at North 36th Street to visit him.
• He's way bigger than I thought, I even saw some kids fit their entire head into his left nostril...nice!
• Oh I got those new shoes I was talking about a few weeks ago. There they are sitting in my car.
• I'm pumped to skate them! Hopefully we'll get some more sunny weather, so  can break 'em in soon...
• Alright that's all for now, I'm out!
