Succession Of Terrible Events Fails To Befall 33-Year-Old Riding Longboard To Digital Media Job

So only one person caught it last week when I re-ran a post on the Onion, and that person wash’t even me. Two things about this side splitter: I wish I had a digital media job, and I will ride a longboard to that job if you give it to me. Actually, I ate it once skating back from Starbucks from a break. For the love of Hosoi, don’t let an intern be your photo editor. As lousy as that poorly cropped photo is, the rest of the Onion story makes up for it.

- Thanks to Josh and Greg for the tip.

Onion on target again

From the Onion, truly America’s greatest news source. I heard a piece about the Onion on NPR’s This American Life. As interesting as it was, it kind of sucked the joy out of it a little. Reminded me of a science fiction story I read where scientists analyzed humor and discovered the actual cause of what made people laugh, at which point nothing was funny to anyone, anywhere, anymore. What was teh name of that story? Anyone?

2011 Tony Hawk Foundation Grants Due July 1st.

Get some, so you can get some. I swiped this photo from the Onion. The click through is worth not blowing the punch line.

The dangers of getting stoked

Still funny after all these years. The Onion takes a serious look at the dangers of getting stoked. Turn volume down if you’re at work.
