So what we have here is s little bit more than meets the eye. It’s not a Simpsons promotional item, but rather a generic workplace safety poster featuring licensed Simpsons characters.

– Thanks to House of Neil for the photo.

Another Mayer Hawthorne video, this one with buttload street skating. Mayer Hawthorne must dig skateboarding.

Grover spotted this kid at the Dew Tour. I had a good AKOTM lined up from MC’s recent trip to Montana, but this one is topical now, so here we are. Last year the Dew Tour produced another excellent AKOTM thanks again to copious amounts of free sugar water, caffeine and Ball Park Franks temporary tattoos. Sadly, looking back I’ve only updated AKOTM once since then. BONUS! Check out the runner up for AKOTM, it’s sour skateboarding businessman of the month.

Got to skate the Dew bowl with a bunch of my friends. It’s pretty amazing for a portable structure. About Pier Park size in the deep. Slightly deeper maybe. That’s Andy Macdonald over the hip as Grover digitally records him.

This edition of drive by cellphone shots, these aren’t tank traps on the Maginot Line, rather light fixtures and car barriers at a high school in Redmond, Washington.

The California Surf Museum is having an opening for a skateboarding exhibit called “Clay to Urethane: 1965-1975” that will coincide with a book signing with Ben Marcus, the author of SSkateboard, The Good, the Rad and the Gnarly.
