Ah, I absolutely love the weather lately. The last two days it’s been so nice outside, nothing above 68 degrees and sunny, oh so sunny. I had to dig out the suede jacket, awesome. It’s a little too chilly to go to the beach but the boys, Dan and Ramil have been hitting the surf the last few days and I’m sure they’re trying so hard not to rub it in. Only a couple downsides to the weather; I’m quickly running out of daylight to surf after work and my wrist has been throbbing and aching like I just broke... Continue Reading

As far as political motivation I’m not easily swayed by negative ad campaigns and yes, even those sent by family members…. so stop sending them. I’ve made my decision based on what knowledge I’ve researched, past history and my extreme hatred of George Bush (f*ckin moron). I’ve always voted Democrat, and hopefully always will – even though the party has it’s downfalls it’s still better than being unemployed again, remember 2002? I can’t stand McCain’s obvious ploy in choosing Sara Palin for Vice President. I’m pretty sure she’s just about as stupid as Bush and if they make it to... Continue Reading

That’s right another Moonfest has come and gone, costumes and all. After spending almost two hours in the hell that is the costume store, it was almost time to get dressed. Right after the Ohio State game (loss) of course. Fun fun time, lots of photos and what not. You can check them all out here. It was a pretty good time and by the end of the night the memories were replaced by snapshots from the trusty Canon. Gotta love digital photos!... Permalink

If you’ll notice the bottom right side of the home page you’ll see a block of images. I’m actually pretty stoked that this is working as I’ve set up a SmugMug Gallery just for iPhone shots, and this gallery is pretty much just for that section of the blog. Any time I snap an image on my iPhone and upload it to that gallery via iPhone (yeah it’s that cool) the right side of the site will automatically update. Cool eh? I plan on giving it a go for the next week or so, so keep an eye out for... Continue Reading

I decided to give it one more try this evening and see if the surf had gotten any better. Thank goodness it had or I’d be even more upset with Palm Beach surf conditions. 3′-5′ chop but it was much more organized than last night. The only ride you really got was a drop and maybe a turn but it was good to get in the water and actually catch a few. Not much wind and the drift wasn’t nearly as bad. I ran into a kid I met out at Oshea’s the other night named Oleg. He and his... Continue Reading

There are days I love surfing and then there are evenings like last night. Four foot dumpy chop in Palm Beach, not lining up for anything but a pounding. I had three rides in 45 minutes. What a waste of time. I guess I got some exercise padding for waves that either pitched me over the lip or never broke at all. I hate surfing in Palm Beach sometimes and yearn for my favorite Delray. I miss that break. Palm Beach is punchy and not mellow like Delray. I’m not an extreme surfer and I generally won’t ride a shortboard.... Continue Reading

Mom arrived on Friday around noon from the west coast of Florida and Trish and I took her out to lunch at Bradley’s down on Flagler. Friday night after I got off of work we all went out to Rocco’s for dinner and drinks. I showed her around my “hood” and my usual spot including O’Shea’s etc. A pretty good time though Mom didn’t like most of the drinks and she’s not much on crowds. Saturday was relaxing by the pool and down on the beach then off to Old Key Lime House in Lantana for Mom’s favorite Key Lime... Continue Reading
