free skateboards

Free stuff????? OMG WhErE!?!?!?!?!?

This one is actually legitimate. http://www.silverfishlongboarding.co...-giveaway.html

Tonight I find myself compelled to debate the concepts of predestination and determinism. Because sometimes I just don't feel in control of my life. Sometimes I see events before they unfold and sometimes I feel certain events must occur and sometimes I have to play my part in an event because that event is meant to happen. It's like seeing a piece of a puzzle and knowing where it is placed and that it needs to be placed. It's like certain things have to happen and sometimes they need help so that they can happen when they need to happen. It's like certain things that happen in my life all have happened to lead me and prepare me for other events that will occur in my future. It's not so much that you don't have free will but that certain things are meant to happen. It doesn't matter how they happen. All that matters is that they happen. Sometimes you catch a glimpse of the plan and sometimes you just feel the constraints of the plan. Sometimes you just know something is going to happen and sometimes no matter how hard you fight it things just happen the way they were meant to happen for good or bad. Maybe since time is just the 4th dimension and we are traveling on its axis and can only see the spot on that axis that we are currently sitting on, we are blind to that fact that all time is set and laid out before us and occurs as it is. Or maybe I just feel trapped in a rut and seem to see a way out of it. Maybe I'll hit the lottery this week. That would be nice.

life's like a box of chocolates, sometimes its all mixed up and you don't know what you're gonna get but sometimes the lid is right and you see it coming... sometimes you just have to eat the nasty jelly filled one though....

The thought for today....
I don't have a problem with capitalism. I just have a problem with capitalists.

ever tried using a proxy to get pass the filters?

[Guts]

I can't believe this thread is still going on.

[sniffleless]

You doubt the power of the free skateboards thread?
Oh ye of little faith.

The thought of today is this.

I should have done it when I had the chance.
I wanted to do it. I had dreamed of doing it. I had wanted to do it for a long time. The offer was on the table and like the fool that I am I passed it by.

You have a dirty mind. (ok...maybe I do...)

[sniffleless]

Still living the free skateboards life.

Ay Sniff, hows it goin?
Im trying to get my internet sorted this week,... Brian and I have been chatting using youtube messages.
..... Skype would be better.

Had an awesome sesh last weekend, Olivier Bareaud was there with us!
Cant believe the high profile riders Im meeting in sunny Queensland!

Shame my skating is at the lower end of the gnar scale.

[sniffleless]

You know how it is. Life has its ups and downs but overall I'm still on the good side of life. A little fatter over the winter and my skating has suffered a little from inactivity but I'm still doing it. Contest coming up. So that is good. Another chance to suck on a national level.

I traded some stage 9 Indys for a Fullbag GS deck. Set it up with some Randal 125's and GFH Fatties. It makes for a nice little pumper with some serious downhill possibilities. It gives me a good stance and some nice maneuverability. Should be good on technical courses and boarder cross and super G races. I had a good ride on it today. The wheels roll a bit slow but grip like mad. No complaints for $25 a set. Couldn't pass that deal up.

Someday I have to get myself down to Aussie Land. Have to take the wife to Japan first. She's dying to do the whole Tokyo thing. Sadly the best I will probably ever do is Hawaii. .....but that wouldn't be bad.

Did I ever post pics of our little vintage 1960 travel trailer? We will be taking road trips old school with that beauty.

[TM_Cruzer]

I took the lady to Santa Fe today on the train. It was a fun little day trip.
Saw some non-pretentious art, surprisingly enough. At great food, walked around, etc.

I also got my 5th bloody nose of all time while there.


Also, I haven't been following.

Sniffleless, how's the new living room/couch working out?

[grimble]

pics of said trailer please.

[sniffleless]

The new living room is nice. The new couch is also nice. It's no nap machine like the red one but it is still very nice. A year after all that crap and all is good except I do have a few spots that have popped up as of late that seem to be left over water damage that took its time to show. Nothing major.

I got hit with a $2k auto repair bill today. I just got the new flooring paid off and now a new expense to throw me back in the hole again.

Lets see if I can find a photo of the camper and maybe one of the new living room.

no luck. stupid computer has lost the files. I'll get some up soon. Just have to find the files.

[sniffleless]

The camper. Needs some work but will rock very soon.
1960 Aladdin.
No bathroom but still very roomy and nice.

for some reason the photo want load up. but I did find a link to when I posted it up before.
My new home away from home!!!

We'd call that a caravan. In Oz, a trailer is just the tray top.

But its a really awesome little caravan.
Love the 60s stylin'
