Dude! I hit triple atw in-out yesterday. Sad news is that I got so excited that I threw the bag against the wall and blew a panel out on that 32 you let me borrow. Sorry dude.

That's awesome James! Such a cool trick.

I went into work today and was told by my manager that I didn't get the dates for the freestyle jam off, although I put in my request in November :x However, after frantically calling the other staff members, I got them to cover the shifts. That is such bullshit. Request a date 6 months in advance, and you still don't get the time off. I'm sick of this job and burnt out on it. This was just icing on the cake. Definitely putting in my 2 weeks notice at the end of the month. Plus I have 100 hours of PTO built up, so the last check will be huge. It will be for 180 hours.

Tried to set up a ustream account, but just like half-life, left4dead, and other such things, vista doesn't work.
The USB streaming feature is not supported with the Windows Vista operating system.
so expect a blog vid in the future

edit: Woo! After trying it for almost 3 years, I finally hit rev whirling swirl :o

Completely lost rubberman over the last year

Kevin, what up!? I flipped my quad at work, so they piss tested me and I failed, so they shit canned me, but later that day I got hired on with Xtreme Drilling, so I'm going to work in Washington. It's cool, because that means I'll be heading through Missoula. I'm leaving sometime this week and I might be staying a night in town, so it'll be DOPE! Anywho, come drink a beer with me when I'm in town.

sounds good Sam. Hit me up!

kind of drunk, so forgive me.
Played footbag yesterday with Andy, Mikey, and Evan. Played decently but have still lost my ability to hit opp atomic tricks b2b for some reason. Was fun though. haven't been playing much. did ps whirl about 50 times each side and my knees did not hurt. It felt on. Decided that if I jut my chest out and extend my back, it's much easier. hit it b2b a bunch, but was too off balance to try for 3 (which is my record) so threw each one into strings.
hilights:
-lots and lots of bop runs and ducks/dives/zulu *seems to be mostly all I do nowadays* btw, I suck ass at weaving anything
-stepulous muted xbdy rake>string
-gyro illusion>tripwalk>food>string
-gyro diving dod>string *first time?*
-ps whirl b2b>string with mullet bsos, spinning whirl bsos, and footed whirlwind bsos
-bsos fog *yay, i suck at dlo's*
-barflyx7 *beats my personal best of 6*
-tried backside fog and lost balance but hit backside fog outside because of it :o
-ps whirl>whirl>rptx4
-mosher's tail>string
-bsos symp ddd
-footed fairy symp swirling ripwalk *complete fluke*
-footed bsos clip flurry
-hit a bunch of paradon rakes, but they're ultra pulled which makes them styley illusions :P
-tried maelstrom>stepping anything, but can't spin duck anymore. have lost it over the last year. Freaked out over spin duck clip bs.
-Mikey hit dimwalk. Yay!!!! He's been trying that for ages and has only hit it a handfull of times.
-Andy hit a bunch of toe muted rev swirls and is learning how to pixie. he also did a bunch of osis>rev swirl os.

can't wait for the jam. Gonna actually compete. Competed in rippin' run last year but that's the last time any comps have been done by me since worlds.

People's styles I want to absorb: Ken S, Byrin W, Johnny S, Jay B, James R, Rory D, Vasek K, etc, etc...pretty much every footbagger that existed, but that would take way too much space.

My old roomates Ty and his wife Jacki (they taught me how to play footbag) are due the exact same time as the jam... and her water broke tonight. The same day as she graduated with a masters program. Crazy. and congratulations Ty and Jacki.

Can't wait for the jam! Gonna be so much fun. Probably won't play a whole lot but am definitely gonna soak in the good times.

Fuck yeah. That's cool man. Ty would most likely be the craziest father to have and Jacki is an awesome person. Congrats to them!

Just fucked up my ankle. 2 nights before the freestyle jam.

My foot was asleep, and I thought it'd be a good idea to try datw i-o, because I suck at that direction. As soon as I put all my weight on the asleep foot, it yanked to the side and made a sickening pop noise. now I can't curl my toes up on that foot and it's the size of a grapfruit. yay. perfect timing :x fuu8uiuuuuuck!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Go down to the post made at Friday, May 8, 2009 and play the song. It's the jam we recorded that I was telling you about. I'm on drums, Jake is on bass and Eric is on guitar. I love it.

Cool James. Drums are sooo fun. Really liked it when youd rapidly bang the snare and go into syncopated crashes

Might do a mini write-up of the jam. but right now I can't stop looking at this website:

http://www.baconnaise.com/

The ultimate bacon-flavored spread. These assholes stole years of planning... jerks

The jam SLAYED!

Just for fun, I signed up for a sex website, like facebook for sex. Didn't put a picture up. wrote "abcdef" for my info, and I must tell you... if you're lookin for some loving then Great Falls, MT is the place to go. received 15 messages in the last 24 hours which I can't even read because I'm not gonna pay that website shit. it's pretty hilarious. With a stupid ass name like "it's hammer time" or something, the girls will love you even without a picture.

oh yeah, you'll probably get AIDS if you follow through.

Does it cost $75-$100 to read a message? Are there 15 hookers in great falls? Do they all carry around black berries now?
