Welcome. I’m back after a brief absence.

Sock Check is back, and in full effect. Sock Check: a random inspection to insure the quality of foot covers. So to see who is coming correct, announce a sock check, remove your shoes, and collect your props.       All I am saying is this… white tube socks are not legit, If you’re still runnin’ em, you don’t got it. They’re for jocks and members of the “Beat It” music video only, so if you’re neither, Its time to step your game up. They don’t have to be argyle, they don’t need to wild. Black, blue, brown, green…. these are all acceptable. ( White ankle socks are neutral since they are not meant to be seen, but no props will be given ). Still have your doubts, then check the audio clip courtesy of Ludacris. Ludacris – Pimpin’ All Over the World (snippet) white-socks (It’s not just me who feels this way)

 Justin is still attacking the shop schedule strong, and has yet to show signs of weakness. We are currently looking for some new slang for working all of the possible 104 hours in a pay period. I believe he is on day 18 thus far, and seems committed till the end of the month. So come see him, he’ll be there.

 Skate jam last night at location 000 was my further proof that maintaining on board time is crucial. Less work more skating, It’s not a bad motto especially if you work at a skate shop. Overall, It was a good time.

Luda is tight. So here are some more pointers to get your game on track. Ludacris (snippet) [***Katt Williams is the comedian on the track***]
