Man I know this one is a couple of days late but I still have to post about this. I maybe had the most awesomest coolest funnest magicalest weekend ever in MKE. This weekend, I think is going to go down in FGFS history. It was an epic weekend that brought the top riders from all over to congregate in Milwaukee to chill, sesh and compete in the biggest FGFS trick comp to date. Finally got to meet all of my interweb bike friends and they were cool ass people too! Partied like rockstars, got to sesh with some dope riders (This definitely helped me to step my game up) and saw a BIG ASS wall ride by Wonka.

Here are some pics (some by me some I got offline. All pics are going to be credited! for you John)

Nearly successful theft attempt

Thursday, January 14th, 2010

This morning, I go get my usual breakfast. A guy that works at Macy’s around the corner comes into the shop for the second time, the first time yesterday, with a Footlocker bag with a pair of shoes and a drawstring backpack. I realize that I forgot jelly for my toast, leave to go get it. I come back and notice a hat missing. This guy that came in is he first guy of the morning. He wants to try on some shirts. I am 100% right on many gut feelings. I thought, no way did he just jack the hat. I ask to see his bag, low and behold the hat is in the bag. He said, ‘I was gonna buy it.’

WHERE THEY DO THAT!? STASH THE MERCHANDISE IN THEIR BAG WITHOUT RINGING UP IN AN OPEN STORE?!?!

I tend to give people the benefit of the doubt, but this shit wasn’t right. Apologies to any conservatives about my language. This thread should be referenced, twittered, facebook linked, word of mouth spoken to anyone in the metro area that hard-working people should be respected. I fucking work 80 hours a week, I’ve worked for the last year and a half with that schedule. I try to bring refreshing things to Minnesota, and this is the respect?

Also, MALL SECURITY CANNOT DO ANYTHING without ME reporting it, so if they witness it from security cameras while I am in-store or not, they cannot do anything but watch thieves walk away.

Last but not least, his picture and the hat he eventually purchased. The hat is hiding it, but the person has IMMACULATE WAVES in his hair.
