huNTinGtoN wEEkEnd REwiNd

so the us open of surfing was this past weekend. of course me buddy nick was rollin up. mainly because he had his parents house 25 seconds away from the event and main street. and dino just moved to newport, maybe 8 mintus away ridin pretty much on the sand on PCh. so im set to meet nick after his ANGEL game. cloudy ride inside for maybe an hour all the way down the 405 to beach BLVD and down to nicks gated old folk community. unPack, puFF, bouunce to main stret for drinks. end up hoppin to like 3 bars. one being Fred'S (my buddy bet me i would end up there). gorgoeus hb ho's, tons of drunks and bros. overall good time. HomE, Bad News bEarS, pOpcorn, GooD NiTE BoWl.

sat morning mc smelly d's for bfast cuz nick drinks coffee and oatmeal. not my cup of tea for a long day of drinking, beach, and who knows what else when im on vay-CAy-Shun. grub that, back to nicks where we plan to cruise to dinos. appleloads and some fuel tv b4 rollin back to hb for the contest. thats what happened. try and go to the OPen. to crowded and absolutely no parking. back to newport for some rays. nice parking spot at a differenet mcd's for parking. partook in some 4 on 4 fun in the sun volleyball, caught some zzz's, and a gnarly ear ache. dinner at RUBY's diner. wasn't about to eat a burger or some house special, so i delightfully choose this monstous turkey sandwich and upgraded to some delicioso garlic fries and some kind of fizzy drink. chill at dinos with a little snoozin to some discovery channel bullshit. head back to nicks to get all spiffy and pregame no holds barred. nick thought it would be cool to pour absolut double shots and yah lets just say not to pleasant for me. shit nick took like 2 more after that. down to main street to repeat last nights shenanigans. meet heather and a bunch of her friends. got to catch up with james, mikey, and tyler. havent seen those guys since heathers bday in vegas or at sc. anyways hit the bar. coors light night i guess since its free. not bad scenery. heather and her gf had met some dude being inducted to the surf hall of fame. mellow dude with some hot arm candy. dino and heather have a photobooth sesh having me and nick prob take 100 lovey dovey snaps. anyways nick and dino and heather bounce. im at the bar saving seats for some chicas with james and mikey and we part ways in hopes of meeting up soon. so hoppin to beerco from aloha grill ( the 1st place we met heather). mad line but of course heather gets us in no line no cover. the bad part. no dino in sight and he turned his phone off.

me and nick hit the bar figuring dino is long gone. grab a beer check the breezzy's, continue calling dino no answer. so i pound like 4 there cuz i know this night is not even close to being over. nick tells me he left his credit card @ ALOHA. so im like alright. leavin my new group of friends who had nothin but good vibes going throughout the whole place. back to aloha where theres now a line. nick explains the situation and i wait outside. had i stood in line i would have been in the door before nick came back but i didnt do that. so nick comes to the door with a beer for me in this huge mug. bouncers like nope. im like dud i would have already been in. so we argue with this dumb as a door bouncer who hasnt brushed his teeth in like 10 days. so nick goes "here john pound it." gladly, he thought of his boy when buying a beer how nice. so we start ounding and the bouncer goes i wouldnt do tht. i drink faster. with like a quarter to go go tips the cup on both of us and throws us out the door. nick puts up his guard and goes at it with this guy for an easy 7 minutes in heaven. dude throws us in an elevator when i finally knock some sense into him saying we got the best of it dont worry to nick. start looking for the car. not there. walking home. nick meets some illegal and has a beer from his 18 pack he is carrying over his head. nick is wasted at this time and i just want to begin my ling ass journey. so i leave nick and proceed solo. tons of texting to make the journey go faster. finally nick gets dropped off in this suburban 0 yards ahead of me before i reached NEWLaNd. so we drunk stumble home. comppetel destroyed the detour of cones set up on his street ran into signs. fucked myself up. home to bowls and nick passing out on toilet. night still not done. have o get him in bed somehow. patiently wait when i get the thanks im going to sleep in the bathtub response. haha. thats what hb brings. mayhem.

sunday morning bounce early whil nick recovers. chill cruise home to the valley. forgot what happened the rest of the day.

HiP HoP eXpLOdiNg oN 9/11

KanYe's "gRaduAtioN" and 50's "CUrtiS" are set to release on SEptembeR 11th. someone needs to alert the pentagon this time cuz this much attention to hip hop in america has got to be making some people's parents pretty nervous. i'm looking forward to the bombs that will be dropping. 50 says he's sure kanye will move his back because hE is smarter than that. it also marks the 6 year anniversary of JAy's bLUePrinT album. the one that put KAnye one the map. think what you want. kanye's latest jams are far more listenable than 50's collabo with JT on "aYO teCHnoLogY"

adidas hit the nail on the head with this collabo. when comparing other brands they could have teamed up with, wesc was by far one of the best choices they could have made. also a new field for wesc in footwear. especially since they guys behind he brand are big footwaer people with skaters jason lee and chris pastras.

the very sexy aubrey from diddy's making the band and wannabe recording group DANNiTy KAnE.

this would be the lovely jennifer ellison.

i found this magazine in palm springs back than. its from europe and now i see why their zines are better: nudity, foreign currency, sex classifieds, hotlines, and stuff you wont ever catch in a US guys publication (minus xxx). pick one up. im fan of the couch section. they bring in girls and they get naked on this couch. perfect.
