"attitude" and how much of an ass-
hole he is (By the way, why is every-
one who writes in to this magazine
always so pissed off? Take it easy,
man), guess what? That's exactly
the response Jeremy wanted. The
interview was hilarious-one of the
best I've ever read. Thanks.

Everyone is pissed because they drink too
much. T-ed

Every month after I read all your
articles and ads, browse through Fun
Box and Fresh Tracks
(which rips), I check
out Mail Drop and
there's always at least
one letter bitching
about the
about the sport. I
always looked down
on those people until
I started thinking of
handrails are for helping old ladies
should try one.

BAD WEED
I've just returned from the fourth
dimension (a subtle realm of exis-
tence, closely linked with but not lim-
ited to earth and space/time), where
I've spent the last ten years working
with astral entities, ascended spiritu-
al masters, extraterrestrials, and
ultra-dimensional meta-humans. All I
can say is this: thank Jah I'm back in
space/time and can
ride my stuntwood
again! Yippee!

Smolik is a wigger; single-truck grinds
like feebles and Ks are the best. Rap
does not belong in skate videos; it's
the only bad part about Fulfill The
Dream. Lesbian porn
is the best thing
ever. There are too many posers skat-
ing around in swishy pants, throwing
gang signs, and bowing to Muska.
Don't get me wrong-Chad is a great
skater. I once got the chance to skate
with him and he's a cool guy, but his
style is his, not theirs. If you're going
to idolize someone on Shorty's, it
should be Olson. K2 sucks dick. The

earth, the hot
video on the
market
was
Public Domain,
and the hot tricks were manuals, no
complys, 180 kickflips, etc. Now,
what the hell is going on here?
When I last skated, a caveman slide
down a handrail was a super right-
eous trick. Looking through Thrasher
and watching some new vids...moth-
erfuckers be doing some crazy shit!
How in the hell did we get from no
comply variations to kickflip back-

ten-stair
lipslides down
handrails in one measly decade?
Does anyone realize how incredible
this evolution has been? It only goes
to strengthen my conviction that
skateboarding is the most progressive,
difficult, and beautiful sport to ever
grace Bozo the Clown's green earth
(that's what they call God in 4-D). I've
got myself a lot of catching up to do.
All praise the mighty stuntwood! It's
