My homie Misk ( BA Crew) just sent me his new site! Shows a hell of alot of art that he’s done in the past. I met him around 2001 while we were putting his show up at Recon (middle pic) and he always has amazed me with his 3d style, as well as his creativity with his canvases. Highly recommend passing through www.misk1.com… Also, a certain cat ( myself) may have a Misk surprise for y’all this spring. Stay tuned.

note: also in the middle pic is Colin Miller’s Dog, Quinn. RIP Quinneth Paltrow, you were the best.

And no, its not the new Toronto party on the 31st at the Social with TEAM CANADA. But it is a pair of slammin kicks my girl Jennilee made for Es. She says she wanted to do the Accel because its a strong seller and she wanted to give it a color way with POW! I just got a pair of these bad boys in the mail from her, looking forward to testing them with the DK Fury this summer… Thanks Jennilee! From what I hear, these are the first of many to come from this Van-City bombshell…

Was shown this post by Jeff Staple on his blog at honeyee.com

Alist is a friend, and its so hard to believe that someone has enough balls to bite so hard. Dont bite kids, we’re watching. Look below, he even put the designers info down… stand up guy.

So yesterday I went to Tiffany and grabbed Jo’s ring. What an experience. Looking at all the diamond dreams to be made, kept, broken, forgotten, and embraced. I realized I was making a huge decision, but the right one. I found the perfect ring for her and us and presented it to her yesterday, along with our friend Amber, who helped me place it in front of her while we drank a few red wine sangria’s. She was stoked. And now I share our dream with you…

Holy S%&T last night was hot, and it wasnt the temperature in this cold ass city but the summertime party my boys at Top Shelf threw. DJ Fase was wrecking with 70’s to 90’s summerbangers… the place was rammed, and the only photo’s in my possesion was from the 44 year old photobooth. However, Zach at Take More Photos was shooting driveby’s all night.

Hanni, peep the cap, that’s the best piece in my closet…

I’d love to announce as of January 1st, Jo and I are engaged! She took advice from Pink, and asked me to marry her on a fine afternoon of slow dancing to William Bell and Iron And Wine, while drinking ceasars and chillin. What a great gal. Ring is being fitted today and Wedding will happen next year with a special guest minister… Stay tuned.

Also congrats to Joe / Invasion on his venture. We’re all grown up.
