Halloween, check

Before the shave: 


In  retrospect, I should have been leaning back, not forward, and wearing a light colored shirt, so that the beard would stand out. 

But alas, to Heather's dismay, I've shaved.

Oh hell yeah


The Maxies are coming to town. What? You haven't heard of them? Why then, here's their bio:

Americans...get preparation. THE MAXIES ARE HERE!!! We illegally relocated to your sunny South California to show how make best SUPER PUNK ROCK PARTY and the spread MAXIE MANIA!!! We are biggest band in GREENLAND and shitty North Western Europe. We bring CHAOTIC POWER POP PUNK ROCK to make dancing for one and all. We punch American punk rockers and American rude boys right in the cocksucker. GREENLAND punk rockers and rude boys much more dangerous. We lose many Maxies to immigration. But THE MAXIES are like disease transmitted sexual, we comeback in smuggled package smelling like fish. We hope to our loving to see many cute American girls and very sexy American boys at our SUPER PUNK ROCK PARTIES!!! This brings much warmth to our ice cold hearts. 
Always has the top 10 on Greenland radio and G-MTV. We have two songs in the top 40 in Finland, Denmark and Sweden. In GREENLAND, we SUPER PUNK ROCK PARTY with your bands that beg to join (Coldplay, Green Day, Slipknot, U2, Alkaline Trio, Muse, Kid Rock, 30 Seconds to Mars, Blink 182, Madonna, Nickleback, Sum 41, NIN, The Killers, Rammstein, The Who, etc.). These bands sucks next to us. In U.S. and A., we throw SUPER PUNK ROCK PARTIES with many queercore bands (Reel Big Fish, Narcoleptic Youth, Adolescents, Voodoo Glow Skulls, Adicts, Re-Volts, Knock-Out, D.I., The Exploited, The Dopamines, Super Nova, Sham 69, Angry Samoans, Agent Orange, Dead Kennedys, etc.). THE MAXIES are more famous then these. We are true kings of ROCK. More PUNK than ROCK. More ROCK than PUNK! If you don't like us, then your taste is only in your mouth! We will be in U.S. and A. until we are deported. We are soon to be in your top 10 radio. We will be bigger and better than your famous Black Flag, Bad Religion or shitty REM. Get ready for the best thing you have ever heard! WE RULE!!!!!

MCA, Rest in Peace

Or, "I mix business and pleasure, way too much"  







Kale and I lived a summer to this soundtrack. Built my first skate ramp, couch-surfed in the Springs, looked for lost Ren Faire girls, and spent a lot of time falling down on concrete.

If I was still living in a dorm down in the Fort we'd burn our top 10 Beastie tracks onto 50 CDs and skate town, dropping off music in random places to be discovered by random people. Maybe that still needs to be done. At the least, we should bleed for the love we've received.

So be it: Skating + Bleeding for MCA, coming soon to a pavement near you. Fortunately we are old and slow, so the blood will flow readily.

As seen in 'bonedale









Received a royalty check last week and spent the cash taking the Love out to dinner and to the 5point film festival. 

Easy come, easy go.  
This was the video that had me bopping my head with appreciation. It is the closest thing I've seen to street skating in a while. Hang through the drop.
Edit: Because I'm too lazy to puzzle it out, it is worth clicking through to view on full screen. Also, the best, balls out skiing I've witnessed of this sort, was by one Alex Anderegg, shooting through a mountain of brush, emerging from the far side and blasting off a cliff. 

The skating allegory would be Kale Duncan in his heyday. I still expect him to plant off of a police car, before he dies. If you see him, tell him to get after that.

She's Live!

























The DCC RPG core book has gone to print, and everyone that pre-ordered has been sent a PDF of the same.

That's right: the tome of 1970's pre-D&D swords and sorcery has dropped just in time for your Easter weekend gaming ... Time to get your corruption on!

Enjoy!

Con Season is upon us
The 2012 convention calendar is starting to firm up. Currently I'll be representing Goodman Games at:
Unfortunately, no NTRPG this year due to a conflict with the graduation of H's students.

Hopefully we'll have some more dates to share as we get closer to summer.
