Miami is fun. I could walk around for hours in that city. Take the water taxi from the arena downtown to get to the show. If you are a total loser like me, then the idea of seeing Biscayne bay by water on your way to the show is pretty fucking cool. If you are at the nerd level I am... You will get excited when you see Pete Hledin, Randy Scism, Bob Teague, Scott Begovich, Ron Szolack, Tyson (The 50' skater thread on OSO) and a bazillion ridiculously good looking people (It's nice to be around others like me). I hope you like center consoles... And assholes too. Lots of assholes. But also lots of cool people... Paul Fiore very politely said excuse me when I was in his way while trying to tie up a 40 Outlerlimits. I talked for about an hour with a gentlemen from Skater ... He insisted I paw all around the new 47' V-bottom. You also learn what makes Cigarettes so special when you see the new ones in person. Oh!!! and Allan Brown was there too. Food and beer are silly expensive.... The marine stadium ruins are pretty cool to see, just hangin out right there. Don't bring your mom.
(Look at the coolness just oooozing out those pores!)
