But you know, I found skateboarding, I'm like dude this is like I don't need a judge or the boss or the coach..." . - Fruit Of The Vine video, 2000

“I ride the trains. They get me where I want to go for free. Re-evaluate your life. If you’re part of the problem, change. Don’t sell out. It’s important.” — Pool Dust #14
