spaghetti whorehouse?

This was a title for a post that I thought of way back in April. An April Fool's day sort of thing.

That movie. That's the same chick from the "ASo you married an axe murderer." right?

It's no joke that my new favorite local brew is Sly Fox in a can. I love this stuff. I used to barely like it. What happened? Something wild. I realized their pils was running rampart. The pale ale was a pale comparison to itself in a mirror, rendering it double positive. Their version of the hefeweiss had some kind of canned glory in mind. ....
I can't even remember what I was getting at. Am I looking for a beer sponsor? Hey man. As vice squads go, the beer squadron is pretty good. Hanging out next to wine snobs? It's a pitfall sort of approach. You never know when a good thing will start sucking, or a sucky thing will blossom into a beautiful flower. Case in point: frontside bigspins vs bigspins in general, front , back, flip, shove...

I hate to keep bringing up age and weight etc in regards to my maneuverability on a skateboard, but I have to do just that. Yet again! I noticed a flat tire on my bike five minutes before leaving for work and decided to ride my skateboard. I barely ollied unless to go big or go home in
centimeters, clearing cracks in the sidewalk. I decided to hit up the metal L bar covered curbs on the 30th and Market bridge. Whatever you want to call it. I noticed it was a little more waxed since the last time i had skated it: January 2009. There was so much foot traffic blocking the runway, but I managed to attack it frontside a few times.

I kept going for classic frontside 50-50 and was landing smitty. Just tweaking. I could feel my weight on the board... bending it. The only reason these trucks were moving over this seasoned ledge was fresh wax and 190 plus lbs. dude. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ol_75jFEpck
I did two 50-50s and got the hell out of there. People are like, "Oh you live in Philadelphia! How do you like it?"

And I always answer, "It's fine."

Naw, wait... sometimes I say: "It's just a certain kind of vibe."

I've met so many nationalities in Phila. Asians, latins, whites, blacks and even latin americans!! Case in point: Enrique Iglacious!
