Reality Check

Also known as Thanksgiving. You're alive, be thankful. If you have family, even if ya don't get along, shuddup today and be thankful. Many people are alone. If you have friends, even if they skate better than you, bang your deck on the coping, and be thankful. If you have smooth fast concrete transitions in a 50 mile radius of your home, put your wheels down, carve it up, and be thankful. You never know when any one of these things will escape you. Enjoy them. So when your sitting down at dinner, and grace is being said, be sure to add thanks for killer 'crete - do this in your own head, as the pedestrians, even if they're family, won't understand.

Thanks God, gods, Karma, Buddah, Allah, (*insert your favorite Supreme Being here), OMP, Mofo, Skidzilla, Jon, Steve-O, Travio, friends, family, and most of all, thank you Alice. Life is good.

"Live while I'm alive and sleep when I'm dead."
