Some fresh stuff
I've been confined to the home for the past 2 days with a bummer of a cold (probably swine flu). In between swigging cough syrup and watching fucked up depressing movies like Gummo, I popped in the new City Fog dvd that Travis Karian was kind enough to hook it up with and got motivated to get better and go surf.
I really appreciate what Longevity is doing. This movie is put together well and the content is mostly current to 08/09(some old nuuhiwa clips, but definitely no complaints there). Ya know these days I'd rather see a video like this with current surfing and get super pumped to actually go surf, than some self indulgent art piece that has footage from 4 or 5 years ago set to a sleepy soundtrack. That's just me though.

Costa Rica
Back in '05, Douche, Dude.Economy, myself, and a few others went to Costa Rica to surf/party. This was my back on the 3rd day thanks to the mosquitos.

Craigslist Gold
I've had a damn good time on the web today, I hope you all enjoy this Craigslist posting as much as I did...
Please note, I’m NOT looking for common enemies, thugs, minions, or henchmen. A proper nemesis is good at what they do, and observes the rules of respectable enemy-hood. Just being a jerk is not acceptable, the best adversaries respect each other, even if it’s hidden by a sneer and a flashing sword. Your job would be
A) Challenging & battling me openly in whatever manner and time you devise,
B) Concocting diabolical plans to make my life difficult (we’re talking clever plots, not just slashing my tires), and
C) Fending off my counter-attacks and schemes.
Qualities I’m looking for:
-Driven
-Imaginative
-A healthy sense of enmity
-A good evil laugh
-An enthusiasm for dramatic confrontations
-Reliability
Qualities I’m NOT looking for:
-Tardiness
-Bashfulness
-Crude/crass behavior (unless done in a clever way)
-Jerk behavior (just calling me a nasty name without good form, knocking ice cream out of kids’ hands for no reason, etc)
-Being a bad sport (it’s my job to defeat you, so don’t throw a fit if I do)
-Unprofessionalism
A little about myself as an adversary: I’m a 26 year old man, live in Long Beach, CA, and live a mild-mannered life (or do I…?). I’m trained in hand to hand fighting (what styles are my secret, you’ll discover them if you qualify and we battle), sword fighting, gun fighting (I’d prefer to avoid gun fighting. It’s just not classy, and true nemeses should look into their foes eyes over locked blades, not just pop a cap in ‘em.), and at least one secret specialty. I’m afraid of heights and spiders and grossed out by hair.
A more thorough list of strengths and weaknesses will be provided should we agree to become enemies. I offer a very competitive enemy package, and am proud to provide a head start to you by giving you more data to bring about my downfall. Please keep in mind that, while a big plus, experience in physical combat is not strictly required, as my nemesis you’d be encouraged to come up with plots and schemes to defeat me intellectually as well.
Please provide a description of you and your capabilities, including what style of nemesis you’d describe yourself as (ie. Mastermind, ninja, mad scientist, just plain crazy, etc.). Please don’t feel constrained by these suggestions, I’m an Equal Opportunity Enemy, and am open to all applications. This position offers a good deal of flexibility, and in the current economic climate I appreciate the difficulties facing a potential sworn foe and will do my best to accommodate time and financial limitations.
If this sounds like the adversarial opportunity you’ve been looking for, I hope to hear from you. I have a full list of Rules for Maintaining a Healthy Enmity that I can send over. We can talk a bit, get to know each other, and if things go well we can get right to the business of hating each other. I look forward to thwarting you!

Still Looking for Personal Nemesis!!! (Long Beach, CA)
This posting is to find a suitable Nemesis. This is a part time position with very flexible hours and a rewarding work environment, assuming you enjoy continual battles of both mind & body for no pay. I’m looking for someone to be my arch-enemy; a foe that will keep me on my toes and up late at night worrying about what you’re plotting.Please note, I’m NOT looking for common enemies, thugs, minions, or henchmen.

If You Have A Life,
or your just not into pointless weird shit then I'd skip this post. This is what I'm fuckin talkin about, this guy is crazy. This is what the internet was made for:
I recently discovered his Youtube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/edarem) and am in the process of watching all of his videos, pure internet gold.
You have to watch this one to the end...
If you liked what you saw I recommend subscribing to his channel, and checking out the video where he makes his very own walk in closet! I'm also quite fond of the one where he talks about why the English language is so tricky.
Also:
yes/no?

It's super rare
that I post stuff like this, only because I'm not that internet blog savy. Danimal told me about this video and it's tight as fuck. Hope it's cool we posted this seawalk man.

Attn: All Who Surfed the Seal Beach Pier Between 12 and 4pm
I considered filing this under missed connections on Craigslist but figured the blog would serve it better: You, in the black wetsuit and booties, on the 6'3 Merrick Black Beauty, not catching any waves. I couldn't help but notice those big blue eyes glaring at me, did we have a moment? Sorry I didn't introduce myself, I'm a bit shy. Anyways, my name is Where Eagles Dare, and I hope our paths will cross again someday...
No but seriously, I'm trying to get my shred on with my pal Andrew today but was being hindered by 4 or 5 angry red in the face shortboarders. I'd like to share with you some tips as to make your next session more enjoyable.
1. If it's knee high do not ride your shortboard, as you will not catch any waves and will quickly become frustrated and take it out on me for choosing the proper stick. I realize that Surfline says it's gonna be "3-5 ft. - waist to head high occasionally 7 ft. and fair+ conditions" but it doesn't take a rocket scientist to stand in the parking lot for 2 seconds and realize it's 2 foot and mushy as hell.
2. If the water is piss warm, do not wear your full suit and booties. Just looking at you makes my core temperature shoot through the roof.
Thats all for now folks...but one more thing, I find blog posts without pictures to be a bit lacking, so here are some pictures of Harry Potter and Draco Malfoy spooning. Enjoy!

Exo Squad Anyone?
So I'm cruisin the web and I stumble across a thread about your favorite childhood toys. I immediately think of these intense action figures Danimal and myself used to be into circa 93-94. At first I couldn't put my finger on the name of the toys although I knew what they looked like. Then it hit me when I found some pics. Fuckin Exo Squad Men!
I'm pretty sure Danimal had this one:
While I had this one: Wolf Bronski w/ Ground Assault E-Frame
Equipped with: spring powered grappling hook launcher, spring powered Gatling gun missile launcher, and fully rotating side shooters.
I quickly looked em up on the web and they go for a grip on eBay so it doesn't look like I'll be restoring my collection anytime soon, but I thought I'd share.

Sex + Tube Rides =

Call me ignorant....
This is the first I have ever heard of the seminal surf punk band "Surf Punks." A friend at work brought in their 1980, sophomore album, My Beach, and my mind was blown. With songs such as My Wave, Shoulder Hopper, Can't Get a Tan, and Somebody Ripped my Stick, What's not to love???
Here is a hearfelt review from Amazon.
"THIS RECORDING ENCOMPASSES ALL THAT IS INVOLVED WITH FREEDOM AND THE TRUE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. FOR IT IS IN THAT FROZEN MOMENT OF TIME IN A PLACE THE SURFER REFERS TO AS THE GREEN ROOM THAT THIS ALBUM FINDS ITS INSPIRATION AND PASSION. ONLY A SURFER KNOWS THE FEELING.... AN ESSENTIAL PRODUCTION FOR THE CORE SURF BUM. TOMMY TORTURE"
It was typed in all caps, so one can assume that this guy is fucking amping on this album. Gettin' all up in the green room and shit.
The album was re-released on CD in 1989. I was 4 and my brother was 1. Needless to say, it wasn't in our collection.
It also looks like the Warriors of Radness or Gonz or whatever the fuck they call themselves conducted an interview a while back with Drew Steele. Take a gander.
