Ignorance is bliss
Classism, racism, sexism only separate.
We need not to recognize hate.
We need to recognize that we all have one fate.
Death is the fate of us all, the deadline, the end, the fall,
Of us, as human beings,
Taking, raping and wasting like kings.
Fat, lazy and dumb,
Acting like babies sucking our thumb.
Calling for mommy and biting her hand.
So disconnected from the land,
beneath our feet and artificial ground
Dig down deep and Mother Earth is found
Being disrespectful everyday,
Cutting down forests just for a pay,
With fake invisible money,
Given out from those who exploit and think its funny.
They don't see death and destruction as bad,
They only wonder if they can turn profit on this new fad.
From the skinny jeans to the nike pumps,
Consumerism, junk food and cheap humps.
This is the ultimate wish
Of modern day people who are EXTREMELY SELFISH,
And depressed from lack of love and too much pie
Little do they know, they soon will DIE.
No heaven above, No hell below
People's energies are simply returned to the COSMOS.

Flower of Life
The Flower of life is considered to be a symbol of sacred geometry, said to contain ancient, religious value depicting the fundamental forms of space and time. In this sense, it is a visual expression of the connections life weaves through all sentient beings, and it is believed to contain a type of Akashic Record of basic information of all living things.

No More Tube?
The SLO Parks and Recs along with RRM and Wormhoudt have secretly decided to remove our skate community designed tube. See it here...
They said, "the small wave pipe structure had several safety issues that could not be resolved in a practical cost efficient way." Specifically, "the primary safety issues included:
· The low height of pipe and the potential for skaters to hit their head entering the structure.
· The vertical change in elevation and potential for falling from the upper deck to the lower deck at then ends (openings) of the pipe structure."

Vince Felix
Rootamentalist and my bro, Vince Felix, is back on board.
Vince wont tell you how Rad he is so I will. Vince, excells at everything Rootamental: Surfing, Skateboarding, and Art. He has a creative mind and can bring his ideas to reality. He is a radical athletic and artistic bad ass Venturan from the coastal town of Ventura, California.
History: Vince was riding his motorcycle on PCH when he was slammed by a car crippling him from doing what he does best~shreding any board he gets on.
Case in point ~ see radical bottom turn pic to the left. This photo, circa 2005, is recently published in central coast chronicals. It was taken before his life changing accident. Prevented from surfing all boards he has been shreding with his pin striping art.

Parliamental HQ
Here is Parliament / A Creative Company and their interesting HQ.
Wood and Concrete, As skateboarders we love the match. Their vintage mix of clean modern furniture and details all wrapped up into one, makes the Parliament “World Headquarters” a pretty unique office!
Staffers dine and unwind upstairs alongside a nice pile of firewood.

One of our spaces had a funky post that made the room difficult to use, but it was put to use with the addition of a floating L-shaped desk.Staffers dine and unwind upstairs alongside a nice pile of firewood.

Designed by Nature
Rootamental is about Design; designing a better way to build a new world of sustainable health and beauty~~ By learning from nature.
Michael Pawlyn describes three habits of nature that could transform architecture and society: radical resource efficiency, closed loops, and drawing energy from the sun.
Prior to setting up the company, Pawlyn worked with the firm Grimshaw for ten years and was central to the team that radically re-invented horticultural architecture for the Eden Project. He was responsible for leading the design of the Warm Temperate and Humid Tropics Biomes and the subsequent phases that included proposals for a third Biome for plants from dry tropical regions. In 1999 he was one of five winners in A Car-free London, an ideas competition for strategic solutions to the capital’s future transport needs and new possibilities for urban spaces. In September 2003 he joined an intensive course in nature-inspired design at Schumacher College, run by Amory Lovins and Janine Benyus.
