Pretty much every middle level executive with a leased luxury vehicle is out "getting ready for the season " on their new 6'1" Rusty Trombone (epoxy!) or 12' candy colored megalog. Fortunately they didnt read the summer intern's PowerPoint presentation on holding position. I enjoyed a Solo session once the tide switched. Whatever happened to middle aged men playing golf or cheating on their wives on a Thursday morning?

don't knock middle-level executives. I make my money by grinding those suckers into the floor. if having them surf one-foot slop makes 'em feel human enough to get back to the cubes and nose-down in excel, it's all good.
on my way to the maldives, btw. Alana B is in, she says, but sending me a new "coaching contract" whatever that means.

Love the guy with the jet. With that amount of disposable income he should take some surf lessons and get off the 12 foot supertankers. They're not really that cool buddy. Neither is a plane with earthtone stripes. ; )
Saw some guys get some quick little rides today that looked fun.
Here's to fall coming in!

sigh. for reference, here's the inside of Vinod One (the diff between a little money, and some actual money).

Vinod, you deliver. And I'm serious. See those under-chair LED ambient lights? Nice touch. I mean Branson did it with his Virgin fleet with purple and pink for the unwashed masses, but that cool blue is indeed all yours.

Hans and Frans were so disappointed. They'd done their installation of lights and a one mile long line on the desert floor for the elusive Mr. V only to discover that their labor of love was a landing strip. It would be their last freelance Burning Man installation.
