" max, seeing you are from boulder, i woud think that the wannabe status was tattoed on your forehead??? right next to r.a.d.o.!!!! commercialization is bogus, but the shear fact that people wear this shit(me too) is not grounds for execution....well maybe in some senses it is, but we need to talk to bone about that. im glad you left our state!!

I'd do the same, perhaps, if something sentimental to me was lost. In fact, it has happened to me...even recently....very, very recently. Quote

I found myself stuck in the lab at night during that snowstorm, and I wanted to go outside and peg some frat boys with snowballs, build some snow cocks, standard stuff... I didn't have a jacket, hat, or gloves at the time, so I took a Gap bag I found lying around and poked one of the corners into the other for the instant hat/hood. Kept me quite cozy. Quote
