I've been posting random ramblings to this What's Up blog on the SPoT site since 1999. Here's a random list of some of my favorite posts over the years...Rob.
In Hollywood With The Party Team = Danger (Apr 2008)

We had a full blown barn burner at the Captain and Casey Show this week. The Skatepark of Tampa Party Team was there and yes, we partied and it counted as actual work. Wow. Check some photos:
While sitting down to have a nice quiet dinner with a little music last night, I got another noise complaint at the paper walls building they put up downtown called Skypoint. When the security guard knocked on my door, we had a laugh about how retarded my neighbor is and how low the noise in my place was. He followed it up with, "Hey are you the guy from Skypoint Sucks.com?" Ha! Yep, that's me, buddy. Come to Skypoint on Saturday so you can laugh at my way cool neighbor while we destroy this place after
Chris Deacon's art show on Saturday. The building management is just as goonie as the dude living next to me. Should be a real interesting time. See you there.
Just because this Krew Tank Top is $19.95 this week for Wizard's Weekly WTF Deal doesn't mean you need to be wearing it while you're filming skateboarding stunts. Save it for the beach or mellow skate days. Thank you.

Boards for Bros is Skatepark of Tampa's charity. We collect used skate stuff all year long, plus have our friends at skate companies donate things to build complete skateboards. Special thanks to Girl, Element, Royal, Ocean Avenue, Sole Tech, Indy, and Adio. Each year on the Saturday morning before the Ghetto Christmas Party, we pile them all in a truck and drive around looking for kids who could use a hook up. Check out photos and video footage here: Boards for Bros 2009: The Day We Distribute
