Skate and Annoy: Daily
Cannonball Run
Add another one to the list. Old Man Army is gearing up for the Cannonball Run on February 16th. They are starting bright and early at 6am with plans to hit 16 parks in one day. It’s a lot easier if it’s not freezing or raining, or both. If you are in the AZ area check it out. I’m pretty sure these guys wouldn’t discriminate against you if you aren’t old or a man for that matter. You can see the flyer enlarged after the jump, although I suppose it would make more sense to go directly to the source.
PBR? No, PBF on Skate Churches
The Perry Bible Fellowship is a weird little comic. Rather than do any of the work myself (Far Side on bad acid-Oops!), here’s what Publishers Weekly has to say: Despite its name, the comic has little to do with Christianity, save the occasional strips blending the religious and the profane. With an artistic style that can vary dramatically from strip to strip, the weekly comic explores “the concept of foolhardy notions incurring terrible, unexpected outcomes” through the lens of Gurewitch’s distinctive humor, described by turns as twisted, cerebral and sweet. The frames above are three out of four of the Perry Bible Fellowship comic titled Preach Skate. Make sure you hit the link to see the punchline. – Thanks to Don Gerard for the tip.
Giving back to the community?
When he’s not busy dethroning Enemy Combatant (who dethroned Neil) as most hated commenter (Actually, EC must have graduated from charm school lately.) Colin Walsh (He rules, you know!) is sending me pics of this mystery hole in Oregon and trying to get me to plug the Benton County Skateboarding Alliance, Inc. who are “trying to get $$$$$$$ for a better park in the cor.” Enlargements after the jump.
O Face, bad kind
“Revolutionary skateboard breaks all the rules! The OBOARD!” The OBoard, as in “Oh crap, I just wasted $131.95!” or “Oh no! Look what I’m riding!” You can fill in the rest yourself. They got a streetskater with some skills to do the demo too. You haven’t seen so many neear tic-tacks since the 70’s.
Riders on a Math Mission
Sure, it’s got nice packaging, fancy electronics and a marketing campaign to back it up, but I bet this Math Mission game for the Leaptster Learning Game System isn’t nearly half as gnar as Radical Mathematical.
