This calendar is on the wall of one of my coworker’s cubicle. Something about the board looks odd. The size seems small and a closeup of the trucks looked oddly familiar.

Spotted at a Pita Pit in eastern Washington. I think that might be Don Knotts reincarnated. – Thanks to Justin Thomas for the tip.

If I recall correctly, I think there were Paul Mitchell banners up at the Dew Tour. This mountainboarding advert is pretty absurd on a couple of levels, and it’s going to ruin Wes’ weekend. – Thanks to Shvitz for the tip and the headline.

I’m pretty sure that’s a bottle cap skateboard and a domino launch ramp. Not to be confused with parakeets on fingerboards in a bathroom sink, at which point I bring up vacuum cleaner sucks up budgie. – Thanks to Seth Levy for the tip.

According to Gizmodo, this thing is called the DTV Shredder. No matter how many times it shows up on the internet as a tank skateboard, it’s still a scooter. I love how these product videos all have macho electric guitars or techno music in them. Just once I wish they’d have some really sensitive music instead. Something like Morrissey or the Carpenters. – Thanks to Templeton and Paul Fujita for the tip.

The ingredients in fake tattoos, in case you were wondering. This package of fake tattoos actually has the ingredients listed on the back, as if you were going to eat them. This guy looks familiar.

Spotted somewhere in eastern Oregon during the post inaugural voyage of Grover’s new video camera. I hear there’s a new GVK around the, uh, corner. Enlarge-o-rama. Oh yeah, for the sake of the search engines. This is a billboard with a skateboard, advertising U.S. Cellular 3G coverage. It looks like they were kind of going for a retro look withthe board style, white pants and blue boat shoes, but the effect is kind of ruined by the modern cars in the background. I apologize for the lame post title.

The recycled skateboard material arms race is heating up. People use them to make art, pens, wallets, stools, lamps, office dividers, shoes, and yes, jewelry. There isn’t much being done with used wheels. I believe someone is using manufacturing wheels with recycled post consumer urethane, I’ll have to hunt that down. In the meantime, here’s a video from Portland’s own Maple XO, featuring Lindsay Jo’s earrings made from recycled skateboard wheels.

I don’t know much about this possibly diamond encrusted Bart Simpson pedant found over at the DJ Mobeatz blog, except that it’s attached to a free download for a fabulous hip hop track by Gucci Mane. It’s so great I can’t stand to listen to it. – Thanks to Chris Gannon for the tip.

Tim Ravins spotted this truck from Idaho Milk Transport all the way in Portland. I wouldn’t have thought we would need to go all the way to Idaho to get milk,. Makes you think about your food supply chain. I think the guy on the board is Gene Brice, one of the owners, who does not actually skate. I asked these guys about the skateboard in the logo and it turns out it was just a gag that someone drew for fun.
