Get a Grip

Chris Harrison and Terry Carson, both sent over this link this morning… Pretty funny… but what I found even funnier was the time on the phone… haha! Got to love stoners.

I’ve linked to a specific set of photos from this site before, but I don’t know why I’ve never linked straight to the main page.
Boston.com has a section titled “The Big Picture”, which they dub as News Stories in Photographs. There is a wide range of subjects, and each photo has great captions so you know what’s going on.
The picture above is from the Antarctica set, and the caption read:
A person stands silhouetted by the South Pole sunset on April 6, 2008. The sun dipped below the horizon on March 20th and did not appear again until September 22nd.
Pretty interesting stuff. Check out The Big Picture HERE.

Watching this video of Mike Aitken on the local Utah news walking out of the hospital, could not make me any happier!!! I’m sure all of you will feel the same way.
This news segment got me extra psyched because when Bauer and I visited Mike in Utah a few weeks ago, he was not responsive to us or anyone in the room, which was a bit hard. Mike has made impressive progress in the last couple of weeks, and I am very happy for him and his family.

Taj just posted a pretty rad update on his blog on the Ride site. He cover a few different topics, but I was psyched to read that one of his topics, the whole BMX vs. Freestyle name debate, was sparked by our interview with Catfish! It’s definitely interesting to read what Taj has to say about the whole thing and it’s really cool to see what people think of what we are trying to do with our interviews!

Photographer Jeff Allen has launched his new website, with a bunch of rad stuff to look at.
His blog also has a clip from the Metal tour where his camera gets taken out, which you might have read about in Dig. Kinda funny due to Albie’s reaction, but not funny for the camera.
Check out his site HERE.

George Kastrinakis hit me up with some awesome news regarding his shop in NYC, some new product and 5 memorable moments from his first year in business. George hustled to help me out with some Jordans a few years ago, so it’s good to see his hard work paying off.
