Dude great post today.
Sunny day and warm in NY today but that will change way too soon.
I think I'll go hug a pumpkin.
Get well soon Collin!

Awesome post Ed. Bros, babes, and brainwashing. Will you have a part in the video?

Part 2:
Ok,cool nobody else commented.

So,um, Stalker lens. Where can I buy one? It would take my blog to a whole new level.

Did somebody steal the Bicycle and left the wheel? You\'re supposed to put the lock around the frame, and have two locks. herp derp.

Yep, that\'s weird. The whole \"Video out in less than a month,but filming more tricks\" thing. Whatever,it\'s cool.

Kevin doesn\'t have loads of Skate posters in his bedroom? Or does that shit turn of girls when he brings them to his Krib.

Here\'s a Link for Kevin to read:

Is that D-Lu\'s bro in the background?

Yay, we\'ve seen 2 frames from the video for free. Now we have to pay our Money to get the other 574527093 frames of Gnar.

Hey Ed, I just got back from the bookstore and I picked up the newest thrasher where the dude is going up the rail. . . I was hoping to read something about how he did it. If you have seen the cover you will know what I'm talking about. anyhow- there was nothing in there about the cover shot but Dan Lu got fucking awesome doing a bs lip to shuv out in a sequence and layton is getting lots of photos I see.

anyhow- there was a thing in the "tweet tweet" (usually it's called something else but I'm too lazy to get my other magazine right now) where you say "It's all water under the bridge. He still owes me $10,000 for things he sold and snorted." Who and what are you talking about? It was interesting to me for some reason because I was reading about how Grosso is off Black Label and how I just heard all this gnarly shit about how he would steal so much and was this huge meth head for awhile and for some reason connected that to what you got quoted as saying.

anyhow- today was uneventful. my ankle is still bumming me out. I can cruise but I can't really skate like I want to. I walked around and the fall leaves look awesome up here. Maybe I'll take some pics on my shitty camera phone.

dan,I think he went up that bump that's like all the way on the right. If this is the cover you're talking about.

My Thrasher subscription ran out,so I won't get to see any photos of that Peabody dude dressed like a Redneck. I dunno if he's being Ironic or something.

A recent email:
Edward,
How dare you make me contact your art studio director, for he does not have the likes to treat with a loyal pawn such as I. You shall be pleased to learn that you will be on the ballot for mayor of Joliet, Illinois for this upcoming November election. My self and a few elite local TOYMACHINE extremist insurgents have helped to secure the necessary 185 signatures from registered voters required to be placed on the ballot. We have complete confidence you will win by a land slide, and alas the TOYMACHINE global political take over can swiftly begin. The proud citizens of Joliet shall be honored to call you their exalted leader. (or they will be disposed of)
All hail... Mayor Templeton... KILL HIM WHEN YOU SEE HIM.

A proud indentured servant of the bloodsucking corporate giant that is TOYMACHINE,
Reverend Brandon A. Barrera. - TOYMACHINE the religion.

oh my god this is fucking great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I hope you prosperous success!!!
HAHA Who is that on the cover of thrasher anyway??
He looks like a douche.

Thanks Josiah,
your comments are very eloquent and funny too.

Is that some "send your part to get stuff" competition?
(well the title actually says it, right?)

I´m not active enough anymore to judge your skills,
but from my experiences with other things, it´s always
good to be outgoing with the things you care and are
ambitious about, even the gear is a motivation, too.

Speaking about self promtion and internet narcism.
I finally have to announce that I do have a blog, too.

Everyone´s invited.Ed.

California looks so nice. That mayor deal sounds insane haha. Wish you the best with that one. Anybody got any good music recommendations? I feel like I'm listening to the same things over and over again

S van, YEs I know Helge from my days coming to Germany for the Munster Contests... Very cool guy.

this was a nice post. good commenting, too.

i was reading a german skate mag the other day and there was a Stay Gold ad entitled "Ed Templeton's Cul de Sac of Awesomeness!" And it was referring to some prize package you could win. But I realized that this blog is, unofficially, entitled "Cul de Sac of Lameness." I felt like I was privy to source information that non frequent commentors aren't exposed to. Long live the sock team. can i tell the people at the next contest that im flow for the Toy Machine Semi Professional Sock Team?

When this site was updated, it was upgraded from the cul de sac of lameness to a Traffic Jam on the super highway. Maybe to insinuate and refer to Edward's hectic and busy-ass life.

I totally met up with grant. He gave me a wedgie while I was in the deepend of the pool pushing mongo when I had my helmet and fully padded

Oh Damn, two full Leo parts in a year. Could this put Leo over the top for SOTY? Only time will tell.
I'm bummed Matt Bennett won't have a full part as I would have liked to see a full "first pro part" from him. His recent interweb throwaway footage has been awesome. Nonetheless I am very excited for Brain Wash.
In other news I saw a gentleman at a skatepark out here in PA who looked like a perfect mash up of you and Jason Lee, as if at some point in your teenage skate rat years you two had a skate love child and dropped him off in the boonies of Pennsylvania. He had the style to back it up too.
I also realized this weekend that almost all the tricks I've been trying to teach myself recently have been Ed Templeton staples for years. Thanks for being an inspiration, and for giving me the low-down on Brain Wash.

I like that 99% of the internet is Pron.
I also like that they made a sequel to the first one and Jeff Bridges is reprising his role.

Im gonna buy it fer sure.Cuz I Am a supporter of Tha almighty machine!!!!!!!!!Im stoked!!

My girlfreind said it would be funny if they sold ED's used underwear!! I thought that was so funny cuz then I was like Id buy em.HAHA jk
