So I'm thinking about flippin' this home and relocating farther east, and yet this part of me says, "WTF, buy a boat and sail to the South Pacific & Australia! Do it NOW while you have the chance!!!"
This country is SO SCREWED UP with all the FRAUD and other BULL$H!T, that I'm thinking maybe this IS the best time to buy a boat and FULFILL that lifelong dream of mine...
The way things are going, all those 401ks may turn into DUMPSTER FIRES anyway, AYE? So maybe I SHOULD hit the proverbial ROAD, this time in the nautical sense...
So maybe it'd be BEST to leave the country for awhile, maybe for good, and to hell with this FRAUDULENT TRASH... half my large military family already live overseas, YEAH?
Meh, I'm STILL tryin' to figure it all out, and to help me do so, I listened to some old school tunes from 'The Mighty Zep'---tunes I grew up with while skateboarding in my youth.
Here are just a few
---IMMIGRANT SONG
---HOUSES OF THE HOLY
---DANCING DAYS
---GOOD TIMES, BAD TIMES
---COMMUNICATIONS BREAKDOWN
---KASHMIR
---TANGERINE
And a few others, LOL... long live 'THE MIGHTY ZEP!!!' They rocked the house back in the days of hardcore ramp skating in my yard, especially on the 11' ramp with overhang. That ramp was SO smooth, it was considered by my friends to be the BEST ramp ever built in Coronado, but there were a number of other excellent ramps built in that burg over the years, so no worries. My ramp had 6' of perfectly-smooth transition, 2-1/2' of pure vertical, and 2-1/2' of gradually-curving overhang with a platform for elevator drops built atop the structure. We even cut a "deathbox" high on the vert to separate the men from the boys, LOL. With three layers of thinner ply, that ramp was hard and fast, yet so smooth that it might have been Tennessee whiskey, or Cuervo Blue Agave Tequila... had a lot of good times while skating that ramp, and here's the story to prove it. I got a lousy $1000 when this story was published in the Reader, but this is my unedited blog version, the REAL STORY and my personal skateboarding saga, LOL.

P.S. Somewhere in that story, you'll run across a reference to 'THE MIGHTY ZEP'---probably while we were skating the very same ramp I mentioned, LOL. And a few others...
