Atwater Sale tomorrow!


Atwater is having a huge sale up on 16th st. in Costa Mesa!
I was there today and there's a ton of good stuff.
Plus The good life people have let us swap-meetize their sale;
ShoresCrew is selling shirts, videos, and Sticky's bracelets!
Support the hometown peeps and come get some!

Bum Steals ....stuff. and gets away!


so im leaving fujiyama after having a wonderful lunch with yoches and johnny (see marriage post below) and I stop because Tony from Chicago Bikes is talking to some bum looking guy. The guy kinda walks in front of my car so thinking he's with Tony I let him pass instead of knocking him down and throwing old smoothie at him. I let Tony pass as well. That's when I hear what they're talking about!

Tony is like "I said give it back! Hey you, get back here!"
Then the bum takes off running. Tony in turn gives chase. This happens so slow I just sit and watch laughing as the two run off down the street in slo-mo. I figure I might as well see the outcome so I turn left on balboa and watch as the bum drops his stolen goods which included a rusty hedge trimmer and a tennis ball.

I tried to head them off, but by that time Tony had given up the chase; perhaps happy enough to have his hedge clippers back. The bum by this time has completely changed his appearance by taking off his shirt. I actually followed the bum up the alley with him walking along my car. But then I spooked the bum and he ran ahead. He headed onto the beach and I thought what I good place to observe the bum get-away antics from afar. I went to pull into a beach parking spot but it turns out the bum just went by the beach to steal a little kids BMX. And that's where I let him get away.... riding off, shirtless and on a little kid's stolen bike.


oh, and your scab was gross.

Drinking on the docks goes nakedly wrong!

So one night we're drinking on the docks, minding our own business.

Just sitting in a line, the way we also perfer to dance.All of a sudden, there's a big commotion, ducks fly away, dogs bark. A naked man emerges from the water. Turns out a naked Spring Break Spencer was just going for a nice evening swim . Apparently he enjoys swimming in the same fashion he enjoys driving his car.everyone laughed and joked light-heartedly....until!Captain walked up in the nude as well. He was carrying a shirt over his shoulder, but as he would later go on to explain, it was just for wiping sweat. Earlier he was doing lunges and pull-ups on the jungle gym at school yards. School was not in session.

Then Captain challenged Spring Break Spencer to a cartwheel competition.
This instigated a cartwheel vs. roundoff discussion, but in the end the two naked men bending and contorting propelled themselves off into the night on alternating fleshy limbs.
After the naked men spectacled off, the group was very quiet;
mostly reflecting on the previous moment's inexplainable events.


It was then decided that only Jager would rob us of the night's memories.
The only bottle we could come up with was the one vannester needed to put herself to sleep that night; but this was no time to be picky! The plan was going well until Spring Break decided to buzz the tower again!

Jaime doubleflips wavehouse!


Jaime is pretty much the gnarliest thing around on the wavehouse. Chek this doubleflip. He does these regular and switch now too!

Johnny gets hitched!

The married man. I swear his bride is around here somewhere. Never hurts to have a greyhound in your hand. His wedding reception was at Sutra; which actually isn't that gay of a place when you rent it out completely to yourselves for four hours. Oh, and then have the vip section roped off and get bottle service for the rest of the night. And when two of your good friends are joining themselves in holy matrimony!
An open bar can lead to greediness, which can lead to falling down!
Everyone loves free Coronas!
But some love red-headed sluts more!
Later in the night, things got really blurry. Where's maggies photos? We need tits' photos!

While we were drinking...

Johnny's pre-wedding festivities

mister John Levandoksi, the CEO of Wallin Surfboards finally tied the knot. Those lucky enough to attend the wedding got to hang out at his beach house on 5th st. for a whole week and revel in the festivities.
Captain and his mustache made an appearance.
Lugo and Yoches' hair were there...that rhymes...
A sunburnt and jager-bombed Johnny and Maggie.
The lovelys got their fill of the free photo booth.
Captain's day was made when he found this snazzy vest.

Elevator Hell!

We went to SD to see a Gogol Bordello show. Which was insane by the way. If you play two encores lasting over an hour, you're kinda kick-ass in our book. The hotel we stayed in was sick, and all thanks to Florian. there was one catch though, the elevators.... Those things were from the 50's, as was the whole hotel. They used to be the fasted elevators in the world, and people from all over would come stay at the hotel to ride the elevators. Well now-a-days, the things are super sketchy and super slow. People were constantly getting stuck in them and ringing the alarm. Vannester and Florian were the first in our group to get stuck and we had a good time laughing at them through the viewing hole. They should really update those things...The view from the St. James hotel in San Diego, California.
Hod enjoying a nice dirt stick.
Drinking beers on the fire escape.
Roof Dwellers.

Vannester and Florian stuck in the elevator. You can see our mouths as we look in and laugh.

The Pricks! at the Galaxy


The Pricks finally played a show at the Galaxy Theater! So close to home, they enjoy a large crowd of local maniacs. I believe there was only one fight! ...and other than that the show went kick ass and everyone enjoyed a grand ole time in the backyard. Special thanks to VZ's Randy for helping out the "list" that was shortened at the last minute. Those pricks just have a huge family following.

Getty'd!


Went to the Getty with the better half. I remember riding the tram before, so I guess I've been there; must have been awhile ago though. The old paintings are old and some of the new are grand.
The garden, green as usually.
The Getty and it's view of LA.
I sheet I slit; and on the slitted sheet I sit.
Pray.
