Special 40th Anniversary Santa Cruz Skateboards wine made by Joseph George Wines, and available for about the same price as a reissue board. NHS has really taken the quality of their corporate labeled schwag up a notch. – Thanks to Berlin Dave for the tip.

This is Packaging from Tree Top Apple sauce that calls to mind a certain Hack Job.

It’s a lego vert session. What more do you need to know? It looks like it’s a combination of stop action and computer animation. Like all good skate videos, it’s got a slam section.

I saw these and tried to find some to add to my collection of skateboard related future landfill but they weren’t even available at usps.com. Then I discoveredthe reason why, they were recalled! An entire run of stamps for the U.S. Post Office is going to be destroyed because the designs promote unsafe behavior in kids! The Just Move! series features skateboarders without hemlmet and pads, an at bat baseball player without a helmet, soccer player without shin guards, and other assorted so-called unsafe behavior. Won’t someone please think of the children?!! Yes, please think of the children who will inherit a government whose postal system can’t stop losing money. Unbelievably, these concerns were raised by the President’s Council on Fitness. U.S.A.! U.S.A.! U.S.A.! [Source: Postal Mag]- Via Tim Jamison on Facebook.

As seen at a Big Lots store, half off the last price marked = 25 cents. At first glance that RAD sticker looked like a straight copy of Read And Destroy magazine. It says “Epoxy Stickers,” but what would really be rad is Epoxies stickers. – Thanks to John Egertson for the scan.

Since we got all bent out of shape last time, I’m not going to show you any identifying features of this kid, except for the soccer cleats he wore for a couple hours at the skatepark adjacent to his game. Good thing mom brought the scooter. And yes, every GVK video might as well be Annoying Old Man of the Month, so stuff it!

Few people know or remember that while he was recovering from his ankle injury, Natas had to resort to a career as a part time department store model to make ends meet. That’s not Natas, or at least it’s Not-as.

Double page spread for the Gap in an issue of GQ. Almost looks like it could be 20 years old… Photo courtesy of Aaron Shims, who thinks you should patronize Black Market Skates, skateboard at Marginal Way, and swears he doesn’t actually have a subscription to GQ

I’m upset that I accidentally deleted my recording of Dora the Explorer!

Rad Dudes trading cards are were published by Pacific trading Cards in 1990. Everything is neon, Rad Dudes are hanging on to the last bit of 80’s they could muster. Rad Dudes are pretty much a third rate copy of Garbage Pail Kids, as perpetrated by someone who was only vaguely familiar. They are amzaing only in the total absence of any amount of creativity. Character names are uninspired and the illustrations usually lack an interesting composition. There’s 110 cards pre set, 55 front illustrations, each having two back versions, one with some character dialog and the other as part of a tile making a larger version of one of the cards. Although the cards are 23 years old, they have absolutely no collectible value. You can buy an entire set of 110 for $1-$2, with shipping usually costing more than the actual cards.
