An Interview with Matt Bomer ( May, 2007 )

..., those kind of things. I really tried to understand the minds of the characters going into it, before everything goes wrong. Physically, they brought us to New York and had us working with professional rollerbladers and personal trainers to make sure we weren't going to pass out. The first time I was on rollerblades was a nightmare because I cannot rollerblade to save my life." Q: Do you find ...

Dear oblivious women walking on the bike trail:

...the side of a road than on a vehicle-free sidewalk. The bike trail is wide enough for you two to walk side by side without touching and only take up half the path, leaving plenty of room for cyclists, rollerbladers, and runners to pass you without problems. Why, then, do you feel it's ok to walk so far apart that you take up the entire path? It's a well used path. You must have cyclists passing ...

... a fun skate with friends and much nomming of foods. Finally managed to hook up with one of the N26 lurkers for a skate at the Boneyard last night. Was a fun session despite the hordes of dick rollerbladers. I did manage to throw their wax away though, everything was covered in the stuff. The vert ramp is now moreorless done, just a few repairs needed on the surface and new coping to do - can't ...

Hybridity and the third space, baby

Over the past week I have spent time among some strange tribes - the rats and bats and strange throat-clearing old folk of the Richmond riverside, the rollerbladers and riders of Hyde Park, even the little lost sliver of Central Europe that is Mayfair (it even has the slightly substandard police - though there's maybe a hint of India to it as well; I've never seen a library with so many Wodehouse ...

You think you know me?

... myself because knowing if we ran that’s it, he would chase us down and beat the fuck out of us, so we stood there, acted casual, he came over, he was a well speaking German guard, asked the rollerbladers if they knew us, they of course said no, I thought “that’s it, were fucked, were going to get kicked out, but instead he just escorted us into the main festival and told us we were not allowed in...

I'm sure this is asking for trouble! (A retro game review as done from time to time by yours truly)

.... I'll start off on a good foot before I start listing the bad things. GOOD: Story In typical Sega fashion, they've taken a weird ass idea and made a game with it. Futuristic rollerbladers who use graffitti to fight authority? Okay, Sega. I'm down. The story actually develops into more than just that. There's conspiracy, and an underlying plot from an evil organization. All the staples...

Body Reconstruction

... mark, I was just so excited/relieved I was about to complete my first double digit run, that I powered through the last half mile like a champ, much to the consternation and confusion of my fellow runners, cyclists and rollerbladers along the trail. But I did it! And I’m going to do it again next week. 13.1’s going to be a piece of cake :). *** (Unabridged Original Post on my LJ)

... to watch the ocean, the surfers who bobbed up and down like corks in the water awaiting their perfect wave, the guy who was throwing a double-lit baton, the couples cooing over the sunset, the rollerbladers, and assorted passersby. But on the deck 2 families were cold, so they lit those lamp things and I was roasting and my sunburn wasn't happy either. Truly a wonderful evening catching up with ...

Segways

... at the amusement park. Rollerblading! I haven't been rollerblading in ages, and it was a great place to do it--one long, completely flat road which we shared with a great many cyclists, runners, other rollerbladers and, surprisingly, a vast number of SEGWAYS. Just what , exactly, is the benefit of using a Segway? I've looked on their website; according to them, the Segway should be used as ...

...it was the most gorgeous view. we took pics of the George Washington bridge, which was gorgeous against the perfectly blue sky. we walked all along the boardwalk type thing. runners, bikers, rollerbladers - just felt very nyc. and the architecture of the buildings across the street was just so breathtaking. so many old-world style looking buildings, including my very own apartment! :) and the best...
