Hal. Leigh. Lou. Yeah.
I'm giving myself a day and a half off. It's enough to make me wanna do this;
But before I take my leave, let me present a video that Jason sent me on Tuesday morning that was shot by the most stoked guy in the whole megaverse;
After I received it, I sent to two of the other most stoked people in the megaverse that I know, DPow! from Portland Design Works and Kevin from Showers Pass, who in turn forwarded it on to the most stoked people that they know in the megaverse, and so on and so fourth.
By this point I've seen it in at least fifteen different places, so I assume you have as well.
Anyway, for maximum viewing pleasure, I recommend you play this at least five times simultaneously, and turn your speakers up.
To make this as easy for you as possible, I've provided this, this, this and this.
If this experience doesn't leave you with tears of laughter streaming down your face, then I guess that means you and I are not the same.
Then again, I get a huge kick out of going to the aisle in toy stores that have all of the fire trucks, tow trucks, cop cars and so fourth with all of the various sound effect buttons on them and attempt to push them all at the same time, resulting in a wall of sound that would make Sonic Youth proud.
I also have to take the opportunity to post this email that I got from Fyxmatosis Andy in which he self promotes shamelessly;
"Hey Stevil
New tees for le tour! Cheaper than a dose of EPO.
what size are you?
Thanks for your support as always
andy"
Somebody call the boarder patrol. That lady seems to be smuggling marbles.
Also, Jon from Dahlonega Wheel Works sent just one single, solitary photo to prove just what specific quality they possess that makes them Dahlonega, Georga's premiere high end bike shop;
You can always trust a shop that occasionally dons a gigantic prosthetic duck head.
I want to take a minute and mention a couple final items. As has become customary on this web log, anytime somebody sees anything resembling, or directly referencing three sixes, it seems as though a photo is shot and emailed to me.
Unicorns, three sixes or bacon...
Yeah, I know I made my bed.
Anyway, my friends Kim and Greg from Bike Monkey Magazine just completed their baby making process, which resulted in a little girl named Pearl. In a single gesture that trumps all of the others, Kim emailed me to let us all know we have a new team member;
Who knew the Anti-Christ would be so dainty?
For the pin-up portion of today's post, I offer you the dreamboat that is Jordi;
I am no Graham Watson, this is for sure. However, I have been biding my time until I can afford a midget to sit atop my handle bars and shoot various ride photos for me.
Only little over a year ago I didn't have a job. Who knows what the next twelve months might have in store for me? I might even have two midgets. I will name them Bean and Trolly, and they will wear pointy hats.
Well, as I said at the outset of this post, I have literally worked my fingers to the bone at the tip of this week getting the latest kit order buffed out and sent in. It wasn't nearly as complex for me as the initial order, but each time I engage in this process, I am faced with a whole new set of challenges. As near as I can tell, I haven't yet butchered the entire thing, so as a treat to myself, I'm going to kick off a little early today, as well as play hooky on Monday the 12th to engage in all of the activities that make life worth living.
May I please suggest you all do the same?
You know the plan. Ride bikes, drink some drinks, make some art, listen to some music, binge on hallucinogens, and video tape some rainbows..
You know. The usual.

A feel-good Friday post, for sure. Thanks, mang.

You're better than Watson. His photos are so focused and clean. Yours are artsy!

I believe that the Double Full Rainbow is a sign that god loves fags. This is pending confirmation from the Westboro Baptists.

Thanks Stevil, a great post.
It's been a long time since I got excited about marbles.

Stevil,
Here in Nova Scotia we still use oxen to do things. We name them Lion and Bright. One goes on the left one goes on the right. Maybe you could do the same with you're midgets... name theme Lion and Bright. And also switch them around, because oxen and midgets are quite opposites.

Damn! I think dude was having a crisis whilst viewing the rainbows. Not terribly uncommon here in Colorado. Next time I see one I may have to rub one out, too!!

Delta brakes shall henceforth make me quite randy.
