Hollywood Skateboards Review
   It's usually the things that make the least sense that make you the happiest in life. This morning I brushed my teeth with Clearasil, thinking it was toothpaste. It tasted like shit and didn't help my breath at all, but every time I think about it, it pulls on my heart strings and makes me smile like a kid who broke into a candy store. Same goes for Gabe Morford. I don't know Gabe at all, but I've always liked his photos, so I was delighted when Real gave him a pro-model skateboard. I was like, "Dude, Gabe totally deserves a board. I mean more than Nate Sherwood." Not to associate Gabe with Nate, but that was just the first name that popped into my head when I think of the long list of dudes with pro models that don't even deserve to be on flow. Charlie Thomas, on the other hand, deserves more than just his own board. He deserves his own line of boards. Or if Marc Johnson isn't going to use it, Charlie is free to use my "entli skateboards" idea. The best part of it all is Charlie is Hollywood's vegan team manager. He's the dude that sends people their boxes, buys them plane tickets and generally makes sure the kids on the team are all happy, which is a pretty hard job, considering kids are never happy. I know I'm not. And, granted, people at day-care centers don't have pro models, but babysitters don't skate like Charlie. Well, maybe they do, but I have never conducted any sort of poll with babysitters. I actually don't know any babysitters. I should though, right? What am I gonna do when I have kids and shit? Dude, what if there's a big party on Friday and everybody is gonna be there? Who's gonna watch the kids? And how am I gonna get to the party? I don't even have a driver's license anymore. And I hate cabs. They're so expensive. This sucks. I'm probably not going to go. Unless someone wants to pick me up. That would be awesome. I mean, I'll pay for gas or whatever, I don't care. Hey, let me call some people and call you back.
