Rainy Day

So it rained today and was a pretty dreary day so Devin picked me up after he dropped Dylan off at YMCA. We did the usual pier scoping til a cop was pulling up so we went to the Village Davidson's Drugs and chilled there for awhile and saw a WAY overpriced piece of art haha and then picked up some cheap food and drinks and I snagged some SK stickers for $3. We then proceeded to the South Key DD and befriended some lady that just got on her shift and knew a teacher at our school, I wasn't fooled though, she was just making sure we weren't stealing stuff. They had some strange toys there though. We then proceeded to the other tourist shop up the strip and Devin got a little shell turtle for his significant other. I think he needs a turtle paradise theme under his head unit in the white 'hoe but he somewhat disagrees.

Also anyone who has heard of Blackwings, Redwings- I feel sorry for you.


Solid gold?

Horny Sea Cow.


DIE!

Picked up my boat at 9 this morning and got to ride around 11 =D
Boat ran okay, just the usual cutting out when the throttle is slammed down too hard. It would have been flat if it wasn't for the other boats. Those weekend warriors need to learn how to drive. I introduced the fact to Dylan and Devin today that they can come to The Keys to shred, spear, fish, eat, and enjoy life with me down there, they seemed pretty enthused. We also went to see Taken at the dollar theater (really $1.50 for a ticket, but they slam you on food prices) it was a good movie and I suggest seeing it if you haven't already, especially if you enjoy seeing a 50+ year old man kill around 30 people with his fists, elbows, and maybe 10 bullets. Came back to the Maggio residence and played some good ole "monkey in the middle" with Dante and Devin, then went wakeskating with Dylan and Oliver and landed my first backside 180 during the sunset sesh and Dylan a nice 3 shove. Upon pulling up to Dylan's dock we came to realize that Grant and his school crew were jumping off the bridge...with Grant being completely naked. After being scarred by said sight I came home and showered off and made a DiGiornio's supreme pizza nomnomnomnom.

Contest coming up soon so stay tuned for more details.

An old idea

So a few months ago I was pushing a half-empty bowl of soup (Ramen noodles to be precise) around on the counter. Have you ever done this? The liquid sploshes back against the direction of the force and then sways with the force's direction and pushes the side of the bowl thus pushing the bowl forward even more. What if this was applied into a wakeskate? It would make pokes level out and possible even push the nose downward some. In theory it would help a kickflip rotate the last 180 degrees on the X-axis faster but perhaps sloppier? 3 Shoves I'd imagine would be easier too. It's all speculation but what if I could split the plys on a wood wakeskate and hollow out a recess and insert a rectangular plastic shell 3/4 full of water and seal the top and bottom back together? This is making me really curious on it's effectiveness.

^^^^^Great way to wake up VVVVVVV


So I guess I flipped the order of pictures around, my bad. It was a fun day and won't soon be forgotten. My favorite part had to be the free milk dispenser at the hotel that night nomnomnomnom
