How cool. Last Tuesday, that very last warm day before the cool weather rolled in, I was driving down South Lakeshore Drive in Chicago and just couldn't resist taking the 31st Street exit to skate. Even though I was working, I just had to get a bit of skating in. It was fun. The other thing I noticed was a pretty overweight guy in his late 20's or early 30's. He wasn't that great (like I should talk). What I thought was cool was that he was a fat guy, who wasn't very good but was out there just trying his best and hopefully, having fun. Because ultimately, skating should be about fun. All the other competitiveness, one upmanship, etc., is just crap. </p> <p>Two more points.</p> <p>1-I thought The Daily Herald piece was pretty good.</p> <p>2-Skate and Annoy is a REALLY good website.

Two more points.

1-I thought The Daily Herald piece was pretty good.

2-Skate and Annoy is a REALLY good website. I hope you are proud of it, because you should be.

The skatepark is Northbrook. I skate with Mark every weekend, and I'm the co-worker he talks about taht got him back into skating. That was filmed at around 8 in the morning. The camera guy/reporter kept getting in the way and actually caused Mark to bail by stanfing right in his line. Funnily enough, the reporter actually turns up at the park and skates with us some weeks now. The report got him back into skating.</p> yup, I’m at the end of the Daily Herald one.
