News Flash

Winter fucking sucks.  I'm over it.  I've been sick, my kids are sick, my wife is sick, our daycare lady is now sick and there is so much frickin' snow on the ground it is ridiculous.  Two weeks ago, I left for Vegas for a trade show.  It was a busy show, which is good for me, but it was in Vegas, which is a horrible place. 

Here's a visual re-cap:

I came across this fossilized leaf imprint in the sidewalk while trying to find food (no easy task).  An ironic reminder that nature is not welcome in the streets of Lost Wages.

Room with a view.   It might as well be a movie back-drop, because you barely go outside in Vegas.

Tradeshow antics.   Playing dress up is totally in style.  I'm not the only kook on this planet.

Socked in, clocked out.  It took almost four hours to get from Detroit to Grand Rapids (a 25 minute flight).  Nice.

On a BMX note, Sean Newton, Jeremy Ball, Chris Noble and some others rented out Kzoo last Sunday and produced these great photos (taken by Sean):

Jeremy Ball with a lookback.

Dave Moon, stylish as always.

Jeremy was teaching teenagers history 15 hours after doing this flair.

Chirs Noble is stylish and dialed.

A Noble hangover.
