River rescue techniques on Thursday, Wednesday and Friday. Sustainability talks on Saterday. Lamar Valley and Observation Peak tramp on Sunday. Day off today. Went into town where I finally had some cell service. Made some phone calls, bought some stuff. Training is over now and the program is about to start. I’m not exaggerating when I say I’m working with the world’s best.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/UriWuqfw39I/124206732http://vskyeno.org/post/124206732Mon, 15 Jun 2009 15:48:11 -0700myehttp://vskyeno.org/post/124206732Having a little case of subconscious morphing accents with the kiwis out here but thats okay. I could use a change. Making a lot of progress. Learning so much. Leadership, self discovery, knots. The people here are brilliant. I’m working with some world-class folks for real.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/ajBRvpz2-LI/120953927http://vskyeno.org/post/120953927Tue, 09 Jun 2009 20:59:09 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/120953927<img src="http://7.media.tumblr.com/hPwNRXoaLoex23tqsl83GAwfo1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/>I’m here nowhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/T0TECwyHEIU/119308909http://vskyeno.org/post/119308909Sat, 06 Jun 2009 23:27:05 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/119308909<img src="http://20.media.tumblr.com/Vn97kDsVBo7pmwxkRuZNZQY6o1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p><a href="http://futureofwaste.tumblr.com/post/116662013/this-is-the-new-arts-high-school-built-by-the-los">futureofwaste</a>:</p> <blockquote> <p>This is the new arts high school built by the Los Angeles Unified School District.</p> <p>Isn’t it…something?</p> <p>Guess how much it cost to build?</p> <p>a) $90 million<br/> b) $150 million<br/> c) <b>$232 million</b></p> <p>Keep in mind that the state of California is in the midst of a severe budget crisis.

Had a blast. Lots of people. Bruno and Em?.., that was just genius. Had like three hours of sleep this entire weekend. Running on fumes right now. Going straight to dreamland as soon as I hit the sheets. Hit up the Venice Canals with the homies after a little performance by J.P. aka J-Dog aka Jerron Paxton yesterday which was pretty sick. Four more days!

We gotta have lunch with him one day” and J-Dog was like “Sure thing” so that pretty much made my day. Now that I think about it, Terry is hommies with David Lynch and now I’m really stoked. If I don’t kick it with these guys something is wrong with the universe. Also, Busta Rhymes is coming out with a new album so make sure to check that out and also check out Antons two new movies out in wide release right now. And if you have a minute, make sure to tell someone you dig to stay cool.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/Naom4qCu03Y/111393106http://vskyeno.org/post/111393106Fri, 22 May 2009 02:41:00 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/111393106“For what it’s worth: it’s never too late or, in my case, too early to be whoever you want to be. There’s no time limit, stop whenever you want. You can change or stay the same, there are no rules to this thing. We can make the best or the worst of it. I hope you make the best of it. And I hope you see things that startle you. I hope you feel things you never felt before. I hope you meet people with a different point of view. I hope you live a life you’re proud of. If you find that you’re not, I hope you have the strength to start all over again.”<br/><br/> - <em><a href="http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0421715/quotes">Benjamin Button</a> (via <a href="http://blog.gfxcorps.com/">dannygarcia</a>)</em>http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/eA2S7gskZXA/110901991http://vskyeno.org/post/110901991Thu, 21 May 2009 02:12:56 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/110901991So I’m somewhere I don’t wanna be right now. Feeling really tired. I think I should start drinking coffee or red bull or something cause this all natural shit ain’t working. So close to finishing this project with my friend; its kind of a big deal. Wanting to get some new Nike Preds, mine are falling apart. Lots of earthquakes lately, feeling like I shouldn’t be riding the underground train as much as I do. J-Dog in town finally but only for a limited time. I don’t like that 808s album one bit. What’s up Anton. O, its about to start, gotta go.http://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/Ydvb8UsN9Q8/110252831http://vskyeno.org/post/110252831Tue, 19 May 2009 18:33:53 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/110252831<a href="http://www.guardian.co.uk/film/2009/may/18/american-apparel-woody-allen">Statement from Dov Charney, founder and CEO of American Apparel | Film | guardian.co.uk </a>: Following settlement with Woodyhttp://feedproxy.google.com/~r/micvskyeno/~3/A2WY5mBFhiU/109607995http://vskyeno.org/post/109607995Mon, 18 May 2009 12:14:03 -0700http://vskyeno.org/post/109607995<a href="http://tromberg.dyndns.org/~paul/Zordmaker/zordreal2.html">What REALLY happened - the first MMPR movie</a>: <p>Paul Matthews on the production of Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: The Movie.</p> <p>Billy!
