"Dad! I have a beautiful baby girl!" with these sweet words the tribe gained a new member and ol' slaagbasterd became GRAND MASTER SLAAG!!!! bow down bitches and switch hitters!!! baby girl Hopson-Hardy is gearing up!!!!!!!!!!!

"Grampa Slaag" !!!!!!

awesome, congrats

everyone knows how hard it is to try and explain the bliss of powder skiing in a coherent manner.
i find that the lyrics to "neuromancer" do a great job of this even though this song is about dancing. since skiing is a form of mountain dance this seems appropriate!!! it would be cool to hear from all you mags on this topic!!!


Neuromancer

when i dance i go to a whole new world.
it's a world that can be experienced but not relived.
it's completely and wholly in the moment.
and there is nothing like that moment that will ever pass again.
this is what i am living for in my daily life:
to experience each and every moment as whole and completely as possible.
to savor that moment and crave that moment again as a memory.
to wait to relive another moment that's so special.
so you have the past, the present and the future all 100% in one moment.
what a full life i have!
the feeling of dancing is like no other.
it's the complete spirt and the body expressing itself for the world to see and to experience.

action verb

we live in desparation
because our desparation
is the fashion

we lie in deception
because deception
is the new religion

you can try
and live the lie
you can die
just for the high
you can ride
the high line
you can slide
for all time

mostly now
i just mellow
kick back
on a pillow
sip of spirit
taste of herb
twist of fate
action verb

we die for our passion
because our passion
leads to salvation
