The past week has been rough…my computer has decided to throw in the towel. Just as well, I don’t need him, he was slowing down my journey to international stardom. So I gots a temporary solution, and some catchin’ up to do. In outline form.

- Went to the Backyard Bang in Portland, intending to cook up a little post about it…I forgot camera batteries. Thanks Snowboard Mag for picking up the ball. SLAM DUNK!

-Seeing all the hip Portlanders made me want to watch the airblaster teaser, so I did.

-What I have been eating recently (via Boing Boing)

-Some skatin’ (via Backcountry.com)

-Where my money will be going: 1 2 3 4

Lomo shots have been developed!

Brunela’s, originally uploaded by booshclown.

As some of you may know I have been traveling for the last 3 months in a couple of different countries. I had both a digital and a film camera.

Now the rewards of a digital camera are great. You pay nothing to develop film. They are on the internet within hours and friends, family and strangers have seem them by morning. If that’s reward imagine 3 months of film patiently waiting to be developed upon returning home. I love this the most about film. I march into Walgreens with a system down. I let the lady know about the “circular” pictures and that they need to be centered in every shot. Do they manage to still screw up half my shots? YES! horrid.

So here’s shot number one. On location in Santa Teresa, Costa Rica. A block from surf, 6 dollars a night and a fridge full of beer thats run on the honor system. All this and you pay when you leave. Oh… and 500 channels on DirectTV to keep you in touch with life back in the states.

After 2 years and finally returning to Costa Rica, this place is now a fortress. When I first visited Brunela’s back in 2005 it was a 4 room surf shack with big intentions. Who knows, maybe in another 2 years this place is going to have a waterslide and kiddy pool?

Big Ups to Juan at Brunela’s!

What the hell??? So my man barry and I were super stoked to get this here blog a jammin’. We have been putting a lot of thought into just where this new media adventure would fit in the world wide webs, and more importantly, how it would fit in to your hearts. after a good ol’ noggin scractchin session, we decided we were ready to kick out the posts…apparently wordpress was ready sooner.

the first post, is a special thing…it sets the tone for the whole damn show, and can certainly make or break your lil blog. well, sir barry and I had the perfect first post ready to fire…we logged in, and low and behold…wordpress had already deflowered our site…that’s right, the powers that be at wordpress, just up and posted on our page here. We changed it, but dammit…here’s to happy reedin’.
