Venice Skatepark Planning


Venice Skate Park Planning

Values, Politic, and Rhetoric (?)...

Where is the nitty gritty? Where and how do persuasive arguments work to neutralize the facts and is there such a thing as balance? Do certain ideals weigh so heavy that they require abondoning other ideals to sway the majority (which ideals, why)? How much does popular media jack or weight our understanding. Where is unpopular media (besides The Guardian)? What is placed in the highest of priorities politically and why? What does is mean to be a liberal what does it mean to be a conservative and where does the separation begin?


Some links ... they're probably biased:

wikipedia.org
rmbowman.com
studentnewsdaily.com

Just looking for discussion and resources to evaluate.

training wheels


My little girl molly has been riding her skuut bike in our house all winter, but she hasn't ever ridden out of doors. We live on a pretty steep hill, thus there isn't a flat spot within several blocks of our house. So we went to an office parking lot down the street last night and she did great. She was shouting woohoo and rode until our hands were freezing and it was so dark we couldn't see any longer. We then went and got a hot chocolate and made our way back home talking about our night. I didn't get any of it on film or video, but it is a memory I will never forget. Woohoo!

New New Belguim


Well, You flat landers will be getting a real NW style IPA coming soon. I just tried my "sample" (yeah... it's 3:00, who cares, it's Bend) of New Belgium's Ranger IPA and it is the real deal folks. It has that citrus aroma when you first open it and the mouth drying effect of 70 IBU's, but some how finishes clean. I'm not sure how long they worked on this one but I think they hit it right on the mark.

wolf moon



Incase you missed the largest full moon of the year last week, here's some shots of it.

Boot to the head

I sure enjoy these boots. They sit idle most of the year but they make my feet happy the rest. Even tho they are built for carrying 90 pounds from here to infinity, they are still comfy, in a heavy f-ing boot sort of way. Thanks Butch.

Other Parts


While some other parts of the internets aren't working so hot, I wanted to remind you about something I think.

Here it is:

I STILL think that this Nedroid stuff is some of the best stuff I've seen, having looked at and seen a lot of stuff.

I also think that you'll agree with me.

Man, you're the best.
