So somebody commented on the last blog saying that they liked this blog! Yeay!!!!!!!!!!!!! My ego needed some stroking, my life has been on kind of a cold streak as of late. Any hoo, if you like this blog then I you'll love my zine. It's called the Leviathan and issue #9 hits the streets May 9th. Oh, and it's full of Dirty words that Remember Delaware won't let me say, in case a 10 year old is reading this blog or something. So I guess I should put an age requirement on my zine, it's totally R rated so no one under 17. To get a copy e mail me at mikebrown@slugmag.com.

Oh, yeah, Skiing.

I'm new here at remember Delaware, I'm new to blogging too. I forgot that they sold Skis. I forgot that anyone skis. did you know that people ski? Now why would I forget that?
Probably because I also help SLUG Mag produce contests each winter where we let skiers compete as well as shred-heads. And my job is to round up the prizes (my actual title is 'Events Coordinator) and getting snowboard companies to support an awesome local contest is no problem.
BUT, the Ski Companies? They always seem to forget about me. Always. Getting a ski company to sponsor a local amateur event is like pulling teeth. Which sucks for the ski kids.
So skiers please don't be offended if I forget about you guys from time to time. Keep in mind that when I started snowboarding skiers were kooks. Just like the Greasers and the Sosc's, it was Snowboarders vs. Skiers and Skaters vs. Fruitbooters.
Now I'm not exactly sure what happened, but the Skaters eventually won the nation wide resistance against Rollerbladers, and when the Scooters tried to infiltrate our turf, well they were defeated with ease. But Snowboarders vs. Skiers? Some how some sort of Magna Carta went down and now there's like no difference between the two breeds.
It probably started when ski's got fat and Ski kids started dressing like snowboarders. Then they started launching out of the pipe twice as high and with less arrogance.
But me? No I will never ski. I won't even consider it until these stupid ski companies start sponsoring my events with more consistency. got it, Dorks?
