Ah cool, that's what I thought. Although they're a pain in the arse, hopefully the hoops mean someone's paying attention. I cannot fail to recommend enough having everything resting on one absent-minded person. Needs less dropping the ball/forgetting there is a ball/oh look, a horsey... :?

Good luck (especially if you're gunning for moneys) :)

DC general SNs in blue/white, i need wide shoes and these are pretty broad, would have preferred
the mostly black ones, but as per usual the black shoes are leather, the guy in the shop explained
that only girls are vegan so it makes sense, had to go ebay for my size, they're discontinued

cheers for the words on the track :)

Big the Fuck Up to the following:

- The bear who hangs at our house and leaves massive turds on the school soccer pitch. Play in that, you little shits.
- The mountain opening on Friday
- Working from the couch while it snows outside
- Awesome Rugs
- Graf, train lines, mountain bike parks, hiking 15 km a day.
- My new board :smt007

I wanted to be a hero. I wanted to be the center of attention. I wanted the glory, I wanted the fame. I wanted the pretty girls to come up and say, "Hi, I see that you're good at Centipede."

Yeah right.

Heard about that case. Sucks... putting someone in jail is never going to get back what she and her partner lost :(

If it was an accident then it would be somewhat forgiveable, but this guy was a fucking nutcase, and then he fled the scene.
