In search of Morrissey...

We skated in Manchester today, and had to go visit the Salford Lads Club...

My friend Stacy has a new MySpace page...

Flying to the UK...

10 hours of flying.

Airplane food gets to your guts.

I took some self portraits on shiny things in the bathroom.

Then opened the door, unleashing the smell onto the poor man sitting near the bathroom.

Off on another skate trip, yet again!!!

More of this.

And this.

And some of this.

I will be hopefully updating as we go!

On 4th of July we played Kickball

Our team was called 'Slaughterhouse,' - Kevin was on it, and Stacy too.

The other team, I forgot their name, had Matt B on it. They won, we lost. Slaughterhouse got slaughtered.

Non-stop travel is ruining my continuity...

The red-light district is only in my head...

Here is a Stacy update for you Stacy fans...

More Mike B...

Thrashers' own Mike Burnett has secret talents...

One is inverting his eyelid, party-trick bonus!

Here he remembers fondly his beautiful wife Katherine back at home...

In 3 days, we will be flying to Europe together... Check out his Burnout Blog!!!

Goodbye Quebec...

We skated some spots in Quebec today, then drove back to Montreal to skate the Big 'O', which RULED. Man that place is awesome. Probably the best not-for-skateboarding obstacle ever built.
See Ed talk about impossibles on the Burnout blog at Thrasher...

Jimmy thinks my blog sucks.

So go check out his.

Getting Creepy - Leaving Montreal for Quebec...

The hotel had some cool mirrors. Our demo yesterday had about 50 kids. But it was pretty fun nonetheless.

Deanna does my stretching for me now.

Driving to Quebec City today...

No sleep. Will update later.

In Montreal its raining and we are wasting time

Here is a photo of Jimmy, the RVCA team manager. He keeps things tight, and likes ice cream.

Deanna had a great birthday, and was looking sweet too.

Leo and Josh discuss the finer points of stick-pussy.

Jimmy and Leo love to take shitty photos of me, then show them to everyone.

Then we watched Mike Moore on the Colbert Report...


The Just for Laughs festival is still going on too.

Marriage has it good points as well.

Glorious Montreal

So I have been in Montreal for the last 2 days, and I have to say this place is pretty nice. Everyone speaks French, and you feel like you are in Europe. There is a street festival called Just For Laughs going on, and the streets are blocked off and filled with people.

Some of them like to show of their butt-cheeks while walking around for quick-release farting.

Unfiltered bung-blasts smell much better...
Today is Deanna's Birthday!!!!

We went to eat vegetarian Thai food, and had glorious soup.

Then went to see The Kids in the Hall perform LIVE!!!

It was great, and they were really damn funny. Great night!

Jimmy celebrated her birthday with a banana-split! Happy Birthday Deanna!

Ate dinner at the NAAM with...

Austin, Mike, Cairo, Deanna and these glorious brothers who did not particularly want to be blog-fodder.

And their friend Erika...

We went to Vancouver Island...

Victoria, to be exact, where we did a demo...

At one of the best parks I have ever skated. (Although I did not skate very well...) How I would like to go back there and shred for a few weeks!

This is beautiful Vancouver, the city we left today en route to Montreal...

Jimmy gets rad with some Ice Cream.

Nothing else needs to be said.

Anti-Social art show Opening, Vancouver...

I was preparing the gallery all day with the help of Deanna.

We got the whole show up, except Chris Johanson and Jo Jackson's work didn't make it on time because of a shipping error. This is Ashley Macomber's work. And a detail of Ed's. Here's another. And a wider shot. The place was packed with people who come for both art and beer. Here's an example of some random party-goers.
See more photos at the RVCA SKATE BLOG!!!!!

First night in Vancouver, eating with a rad posse

Went to dinner with Michelle from Anti-Social, Keegan, and a bunch of very nice people that remind me what is great about Vancouver, and also what is lame about southern California. (the real people versus the fake ones.)

I'll be away for 12 days...

On a RVCA tour. I hope this does happen to me sometimes, but that I live to tell the tale.

Traveling the world, (mostly Canada for RVCA)

Fans of Stacy can see a resemblance I discovered in her with Paul Giamati

Art Show and RVCA Tour in Canada!!!

This Saturday, July 14th in Vanvouver, Canada.
Chris Johanson, Jo Jackson, Deanna Templeton, Ashley Macomber, and Yours Truly will be showing paintings and photographs... come see it. Get in your car and drive! It's summer!
Check the Anti-Social website for info.
Then I'm going on a skate tour across Canada with the RVCA team. Stop by and see us in real life, not this fake computer one.

Family Trip, vintage outlook into the future...

sǝʌıl ɹnCORRUPTIONoıʇdnɹɹoɔ

No trip to Paris is complete...

Without visiting Oscar Wilde's grave and marveling at the desecration it suffers at the lips of painted women.

Tripping on anything but acid

This is a little further back... and then a little bit further. Oh well, just a new painting.

Deanna has a new book out!!!

It's called 'YOUR LOGO HERE'
And it's a book of photographs exploring the phenomenon of young girls and boys getting company logos sprayed on themselves to become corporate billboards for seemingly no reason at all. It is from her ongoing series, 'Body Logos'...
The book is published by PAMBooks and you can get it from the Someday Store's new online shop.
Here are some sample spreads: Opening Page---Spread 01---Spread 02---Spread 03.
Order it here!!! (under PamBooks)

Deanna and I drove back from San Francisco

In San Louis Obispo there was gum covering an alleyway. Seriously, both sides were covered floor to ceiling, the whole length. Deanna was disgusted. But earlier that day I Busted her buying herself a vegan cupcake!

This kid was all signed up before he got to us...

His friends hooked him up.
