yea man kids dont even go outside no more. they have myspace and facebook. i used to politic from my mobile office(pacific, or my magna) it depended what dayit was. man bikes used to be serious have the fresh bike with gyro, plastic mags, tear all the stickers off. adjust the seat put pegs on the front and back(for the skeezers and my boys). and push the handle bars forward. pokemon was hot. when i was in Kindergarten i watched power rangers faithfully. i mean i usedto watch power rangers and then think about doing my homework. Back when jordans meant something. i mean i didnt rock them because they were expensive or thenext man had them but to be honest i thought they would make me play better
