People used to swear that Janoski's stretched out like a half inch once broken in but I won't ever buy Nike because I hate what they've done with skateboarding.

I rock Adidas shoes that I can't remember the name but they look like the Ease but not a skate shoe, I can pick them up for twenty bucks a pair here at their outlet. Best skate shoe ever, remind me of the old Circa AL50 before Circa went downhill.

Today my motherboard's sata controller died and because of bad timing with intel's release schedule so begins the impromptu parting out of my gaming rig.

I woke up on time, but it is 34 degrees out and there is a dusting of snow on the ground. I'm driving. It's the middle of April and I rode home from work in a tshirt on Monday. Ridiculous.

Woke up to 30 degree weather, after being fairly used to 60-80 degree weather.

Played a little HTFU and commuted anyway.

Today I saw an old friend for lunch. I am sporting a new goatee so I expected a few comments. Instead I arrive and he's rocking a MASSIVE moustache long enough to be waxed/braided. I was totally outgunned.

I do this pretty often too but I usually cook them up with some finely chopped onions, various hot peppers from my garden and fresh cilantro, topped with a dab of sour cream.
