Mediocre skateboarding | Incidental birdwatching.
I'm almost positive I went over the syllabus with them whenever their first day was, too.

Maybe should've used a King Diamond deep cut.

I don't remember the exact details at this point, but I had a student show up at the art office complaining about how their poor attendance affected their grade. They asked if I ever said that in class and I was like, "Yeah, I said that on the first day, which you also weren't there for."

It was a decent day of skateboarding. I ran a lot of errands and cleaned in the morning so I knew I was going to run out of gas sooner or later. I saw about a dozen robins in the morning, a double-crested cormorant at the lake, and a downy woodpecker in the yard. I also heard a chickadee. (2/2)

It vaguely feels like we're entering into another age of the Patriots owning the division.

You think they're going to be practicing free throws today? All I wanted to do was go to bed and the game simply wouldn't end.

I think they got nearly everybody on the team at one stop or another. The Thrasher coverage probably helped. I was surprised Tyler Surrey made it over from Spain. Was Brain Reid there? He was really good and doing some Westgate type of stuff.

Was that the New Balance tour/demo? I saw the Buffalo stop a month ago. A little odd they split it up, but their whole team is grownups who have to coordinate schedules.

It should be. Affordable and practical so even small towns could get a park. Better than an awkward $500,000 lump of concrete. The goal for parks should be if a little kid is stoked on skateboarding, they don't leave the park thinking skateboarding is utterly impossible.

I spend an obscene amount of time thinking about park design and I honestly think the easiest fix would be to build everything 6" lower and use 8' transitions instead of 6'. Obviously we need more straight ledges with lots of good flatground, but making everything a bit lower would be way better.

The AL MVP award is a travesty. I quit caring about it a few years back when Sal Perez hit 48 homers and wasn't even a finalist.
