I was gonna say Devin sounds like a fine candidate to me, but if AKPM really is on beater skis then maybe he deserves 'em too (wait a minute and I'm sure he'll pop in). As for Devin not being a maggot, we should blame Skippy! Get your best friend to register and then he can tell his own sob story about being a skier stranded in PA (he wouldn't be the first on this board)...
And of course mad props to easy fo sheezy and CS for paying it forward, karma points both of ya
dammit, that cuts deep. how's it going, dan?Quote:

AKPM gets em. Maggot. Takes a lot shit. Big on soul. mail them suckers.
The kid does already has Public Enemies.
I still say at this stage he is the most worthy though.
AKPM definately seems to be the most worthy padawan maggot
i'd vote AKPM if he didn't already have real skis
so i'm gonna have to vote for telekoptero... he's a homeless dirty hippie ;-)
he is a super dedicated maggot and helps others all the time
he really needs real skis... bad!
What's going to keep a self-serving asshole from signing on under a different name and nominating himself using an alias?
there's been a lot of negativity around here lately so I wouldn't be surprised if some cack smoker tried to pull that off.
yeah, i started that thread ..... thanks for remembering woodsy, but a 189 pistol is way too much ski for my son, at least for this season. he's not much of a pow skier yet, and even if/when his skills do improve a 189 will probably be too long for him considering his size (5'10" 145 lb.)Quote:

he has also obviously read this thread already and not spoken up. mebee he doesnt want them anyways.

How about a "post of the Month" type of deal, which would be in a sticky. Of course there would be a time frame in which to get your post in.
Just my 2, whatever.
Or maybe he just doesn't want to be the guy who shouts "I do! I do!"
Heh.
Of course Max and Tyrone wouldn't be elgible :D
sorry for the double post.

Cause we all know what a model of self-restraint he is...Quote:

Sick and ashamed and happy (and a contest would be cool, though),
d.
Totally agree with Rev. (Rev man - you gettin' soft?) ;)
AKPM is often times a bit overzealous. He does, however, constantly post stoke. He lives in a beautiful place, knows it - and shares it. (And constantly takes shit for it.) He doesn't care. Or if he does, he takes it in stride, because for all the grief he's been given, he keeps on.
Anyone that loves the mountains enough to take a scenic sunrise shot of a snow-capped mountain (10 miles distant) on his way into f'n SCHOOL in the morning...
Is A-O-fu(king-K with me.
He gets my vote too. BTW, does anyone really know what kinda beaters he's really on?
:confused:
He rides Public Enemies. Not exactly a beater. Maybe he gets the SP's and he sends his PE's to un and down's kid. That's what I'm talkin' aboot.Quote:

Yes, yes, I remember the saga.
Ok - then what homerjay said.
Ok, AKPM - we know you're watching. Speak up, young man! :D
Well, I think it's easyriders call - but AKPM is certainly deserving.
If he were to ship his PE's to upndowns son upon reciept of the Pistols, I could likely find my way to sending Skip's buddy a pair of boards and binders (with about 15 days on them) to get him going.
Damn, I heart maggots.
Someone could page him if he has not seen this. And maybe he does not want more grief for saying I do, I do. The trade of skis, if he wants them sound like a great idea.Quote:

Know there's not much of a market for straight boards, but if anyone needs 'em THAT bad...
well the general consensus seems to be for AKPM, a maggot I don't believe I've met but must be doing something right to get fellow maggot support. So AKPM, I'd like to hear your story. As for the rest of ya'll the table is still open for nominations/stories, again the deadline is a week from today. I'm out for the weekend so happy posting, talk to ya monday.
easyrdr:
It is entirely possible that AKPM is too busy weeping with joy over the support he's got in this thread...................give him a minute...........
and that would be wicked cool if he sent his pe's to someone in exchange

Honorable mention to GT40. He's probably helped more maggots than anyone, but I think he can afford his own skis.
Easy is the mang. I still have a copy of the "Heating Truck Bed" in my room. I have no one to nominate and I have no use for a pair of SP's. But this has to be one of the coolest things i've ever seen anyone do in my life.
Bump I like the idea of AKPM getting them and sending forth his PE to a needy indivdual. '
But this should take time.
just throwing in another vote for AKPM. there's lots of good things to say about the kid but I can't think of anything to add to what has already been said....
you deserve it, man.
please see his most recent thread....ugh
AKPM takes a ton of shit, sure, but he brings it on himself, he has been, told/asked to chill on the dumb ass posts and yet still posts "pow skiing or sex" COME ON.
must be a more deserving person IMO.
I very much agree here, a kid who cross-country skis everyday in the winter, AND POSTS TR's ABOUT THEM EVERYDAY, does not deserve new pistols...set up some sort of contest to spread some stoke on the board...or something..Quote:

Holy shit you guys have no idea what it means to me to get nominated to get the skis seriously i would love to have em. I was thinking along the lines of homerjay, theres a couple of kids I know could use my PEs or my Dynastars, and skins too OMG seriously it would help me so much I haven't figured out how to scrounge the money for skins, let alone an at setupQuote:

I doubt it I'm pretty fat and chicks up here don't dig SPs as much, but who needs sex when you have SPs right? ;)Quote:

How about you give the boy a stipulation that before he posts, he put more thought into what he throws up here. Or relegate him to "the padded room" for all the sucky threads.
