You can't buy a gun when you're crying...

Here's some new 7.75s. The Board Shop in Tulsa has some of the new 8 inchers. Thanks to everyone who've been buying our boards.

For some reason every rainy day I listen to MC5's 'back in the usa' lp in the morning. This is a quote from "high school" that I had stuck in my head.

Lou hates us. We're trying really hard to get rid of our flea problem.

We're not in it to lose.

Where the bowl meets the street course.

Bank to bank with a handrail.

This morning was a rain out. We covered everything that hadn't been poured yet with plastic in the pouring rain.

I know you're thinking "if they'd pour that flat part in we could totally be skating the bowl right now." That's what I said, but the city made them promise to pour that last so kids wouldn't be lurking, riding, and fucking shit up every night.

Fun box with a ledge on top and eventually a handrail.

We poured these banks yesterday. If they're lumpy in the middle- I'm the guy to find and kick in the nuts. I knee-boarded down them for the most part and take full responsibility.

The Ideal skateparks crew are doing a hell of a job and working their asses off on this project. Hopefully this park turns out good and everyone likes it (yeah, right. someone is always going to bitch). Thanks to Seth, Steve, Cary, and Mark for giving me the chance to help out. My guess is this thing will be rideable in a month or so. (cross your fingers.)

Good fine Americans.

The City of Perry and a gaggle of Christians decided to have a skateboarding and music festival on their Main Street on Friday. It wasn't really a "festival", but it was kind of fun.

We sold a bunch of Smash boards, including the one that Aaron was riding. This is my favorite one I've painted in a while, so I asked the little fellow if I could take his picture with it.

This is "David the Czech"'s house just outside Perry. He really hates the city of Perry and bunch of other shit. The whole outside of his property is lined with signs similar to this one. As Aaron said, someone should really write a book about this dude. Also I'd like to see the use of the word "sickie" or "sickies" used more often. Good job, David.

Perry is a tweaked little town with a bunch of interesting characters. Don't think I mean that in a bad way, I think tweaked little towns are one of the things that make America great.

Oh yeah, I don't think any of the skate photos or obstacles they had to skate are even worth showing you. So, sorry if you cared.

You can't rollerskate in a buffallo herd.

I already had all these songs, and as much as it's one of my favorite albums of the last year or so, mostly I just had to have this for the cover. Pretty creepy and funny, huh?

This ain't no picnic.

We got them today!!! Smash finally sells 8 inch decks.... Here's the first batch.

The ramp has sweet angle iron for coping now. If you blow it, it comes sliding down, but I'm going to get something tomorrow to anchor it in. Somewhere in Oklahoma we need to all get together with a bunch of homeade crap like this and have a "jam".

Baby, baby, baby don't you like being called baby?

Backstage at the Poncan.

I heard The Siemo isn't going to go by The Siemo anymore. I'll probably go ahead and keep calling him The Siemo since I invented The Siemo moniker. Siemo.

Julien is a madman and funny little dude.

The lighting was kind of trippy, sorry if these look shitty.

Jim Gorton tambourining all over the place. Yeah, I know "tambourining" isn't a word.

Kazoo? Fuhgetaboutit.

The Horton and The Siemo.



It was a good show and nice to see they still dick around on stage.
