E's Surf Report

FIRST! finally beat bagel.

Sweeeeeet pcs!

E, they replaced my fish!

They're charging while you sleep. They're charging you right now!
They're all out to fucking charge you until you can't be charged...you're unchargable, you're chargeless! They charge you after they charge you and before you can be charged to be charged. All I get is fucking charged and I'm charged to my charging limit!
They charge you once before they charge you twice, and than they charge you once more!
I am not powerless. The charging will stop.
I will not be defeated by a tow truck company! I will not be charged! I am the only one who can charge. I will not be defeated by a tow truck company!

Love the pics! Thanks, e.

So envious of that Socal paddle-out. I wish...

yes! mavs charging charger rules!

What ungodly dynamics are at play on that second wave from the bottom? Duck dive that sucker!

fifth!

is that muddy left really in texas?

shit, sixth! damn you dennis...

also is we get assed out of a fall i will be so sad. these winds freak me out.

you know what, to those of you saying things like "chickens come home to roost" about hurricane Rita you can go fuck yourself with that totally small-minded and selfish attitude (and no that's not a dick cheney quote, he's from Montana). there are millions of Texans that did not vote for Bush and vehemently and loudly protest his policies. many many of those will be affected in a major way by this natural disaster, as will you.

you sound like this asshole i met on a plane once telling me how california deserved the blackouts in 2000-2001. will you deserve it if a major quake comes and destroys your property? it's likely it will at some point so don't forget what you said about the hurricane.

bush is a carpetbagger from Maine posing as a Texan. i lived and surfed at OB/bay area for 7 years and i find it so funny and hypocritical that during that time i observed constant examples of how redneck the surf culture is. all this tranny bashing and threats of beatings...many of y'all sound just like the small-town folks that you are currently wishing destruction upon. you got your west coast attitude and bohemiam surfer style all down pat but it's the same low behavior you find so abhorrent in the midwestern/southerner.

yeah i'm overracting to a couple off-hand comments but we're down here staring this fucking thing in the face and i don't appreciate your bullshit sentiments about how we deserve it.

mk1201 made that last post.

oh and e, this is a more representative picture of katrina in Texas:

http://www.spadre.com/images/katrinabruce.jpg

Not to worry Bagel. This is transitional a period. Lots of stuff beginning to happen in the North Pacific. The center of the Pacific High is moving northeastward. Soon the high will be building over Utah and we'll be getting our offshores, and the storm track will be in full operation.

You guys will be better off, just like the Katrina refugees in the Astrodome. Trust Momma Bush mk1201.
And btw, Cheney is from Wyoming...

http://www.spadre.com/images/katrinajj1.jpg

wyoming, whatever.

http://www.spadre.com/images/katrinajj2.jpg

Whaaa?

Speaking of the south, where's the best place to get grits in this here city?

Caught some nice waves last night despite the onshores. Give it a few more weeks. Mmmm, waves.

Amigoism - my fav is Sri Thai btwn 47th and 46th on Lincoln. Really good food, prices, and nice people.

Grits?....what about ochra?

mk1202...Its called myopia. Surfers are as myopic as any pathetic subculture in thier views. It should come to no ones surprise here that GW isnt really from anywhere unless you can call the test tube or the lab he was concieved in a home. Just consider, if you were the CEO of a evil multinational corporation you would be very happy with GW because he is doing exactly what you told him to do. Sit Ubu sit, good dog.

And if you were the head of an evil corporation and still a surfer(possible?) then you would be on a boat trip in the Caroline Islands of Micronesia with a harem of supermodels cheering you on as you dropped into yet another blue empty barrel as you contemplated a steak or lobster for dinner.

Looking good Billy Ray. Feeling good Lewis.

Cheney is a Texan. At least, he lived there for years and years before wherever Bush makes him hide in Washington. He had to re-establish residency in Wyoming before he ran for Veep - the constitution states clearly the president and Veep cannot come from the same state.

That aside, Cheney is a dyed in the wool Carlyle Group Texan oil man.

mk1201, get out of dodge, the fan and the crap are about to meet.

I like the grits at the Pork Store. I've only been to the one on Haight, but they also have a place in the Mission (16th street).

Damn, now I'm hungry.

Sri Thai has grits? Whoa.

Mmmm, okra. Mmmm, Dixie beer.

For what it's worth, with ain't much... Cheney was born in Lincoln, Nebraska and grew up in Casper, Wyoming. He earned his bachelor's and master's of arts degrees from the University of Wyoming. I think he moved to Washington in 1969 then back to Wyoming in 1977.

Consider this monster hitting SF.

Oh, grits in the literal sense? er, no.

I'm not getting much work done today...

Packing up the Audi A-5 with my quiver of fish style boards where I ride it all squat and then squat for a turn and fall as I can't seem to turn my stiffy in the soup. But I look cool and it looks cool and its what all my bro's ride so...
Texas is Mexico. So is California!
Who gives a shit about Bush - concern yourselfish mind with helping the displaced masses you shallow surfer fuck.
Is it ok for men to wear speedo's in Cali ? In a public parking lot?; I personally don't like having to notice your ugly bulge - eeeeeee yuk! Put it away you weirdo!
'M' wore his trunks on the outside of his wetsuit for years and years - the kook.
Maalaea - I've been hella slotted and hella humiliated on spinning barrels with me on the inside claiming it all for myself.

Grits? jeez if you havent realized your in California so take your pick of the greatest food selection outside New York. my favorite post surf food is
1) Cheap = Just Wonton 23 and Vincente. Huge bowls of wonton soup ( get them without noodles) and rice plates for under 6 bucks

2) more expensive- Tong Kiang on geary. Dimsum or okra and prawns.

Oh shit am I in trouble for naming spots....to eat at?
this wind is killing me no chance for anti kook redemption from my last OB fiasco.

skeletors got soul but he's not a soldier.

Skeletor? Damn i anyone else remember the Thundercats?

Fish Tacos(homemade with Tilapia straight out of the tank at the Ranch99 market)

Okazu Ya on noriega for the spicy roll, hot sake and cold Kirin's

Hawaiian drive in on sloat(mission is better)

Jeez there are to many places to list...

Your smile can reveal your true inner self.

Funny Skeletor drives an Audi A5. Im sure the marketing department in germany didnt have him in mind."Fahrvergnugen fur das Superheros"

jerks

...is it just me or is Skeletor really Cheney in drag?

i agree, by implying that texas is getting what it deserves because of Bush policy decisions is BS and you are an f'in idiot.

yeah, and SF deserves the next big quake because of Gov. Arnold or SF City liberal policies.

buncha kooks...go back to linda mar.

Wish I had a slice o' Mama Santo's (Hoboken) to wrap around my hangover. To fold it over and see the barrelling cheese.

I thought Maria Shriver was Skeletor...........

I heard there was a real New York style pizzeria in the Mission? Anyone?...Buhler?

food....anybody try that dim sum spot in the strip mall where the ranch 99 is on the way south form the beach? i've been meaning to for a long time, if someone says its good it might put me over the edge.

i'm into imperial rolls and pho on the way home from surfing, there are so many places but my favorite is minh tri on irving @ 6th.

antman, just don't start naming highly localized sushi spots like H***-K* and everything will be alright.

what the fucuk is an audi A5?

Indian Ocean Okra

3 cups fresh or frozen okra if using fresh slice to desired

I hear music underwater, and sometimes I scream down there. Sometimes I dig my hands into the sandbar and try to HOLD ON to my sea-floor position while the ground swell freight train rumbles by overhead. Makes the spine undulate, rubbery. I smile a toothy smile then, and let the plankton strain through my teeth. It's hard to find a good place to release a primal scream in the city, so I do this instead. Then back at the surface, quietude, go deep, fade the bottom turn...be that guy. I like kittens and rainbows....yay.

I always wondered about that Dim Sum place in that depressing Ranch99 mall too....

The Ranch 99 Market is classic. If you havent been you must.

You cant beat a market that could also pass as an aquarium with so many different live fish
swimming in front of you to choose from.

powells soul food, fillmore center area.

pho phuk quan (or something) 19th and irving

bills place for burgers, clement and 26th or so.

i miss that cajun place by mullosk.

Post surf lunch-cold mug of Bud on tap and chicken parm sandwich at Brothers on Taraval

eggplant parm sandwich at Brothers: $3.49

yummmm

Although there may be irony in Texas gettting hit by Rita, the reality is that the people that get hit hardest are poor and often people of color. The Bush supporting Wealthy and Christian middle class folks have insurance, their suffering will be minimal, (not that I want anybody to suffer)

Global Warning or long range climate trends?

Lisa Anderson or Sarena Brooks???

serena

Since it's too windy to surf, I feel that we share, though perhaps in a small way, the suffering of those facing hurricane Rita. Just one example of how surfing really opens your eyes to the wider world.

Lisa Anderson.

I saw her in an interview speak about how she watched every bit of Curren footage she could find to study his bottom turn and that her surfing was based around her bottom turn.

You just cant top a class act.

Cajun Pacific is still open but the times are real limited.

Woops i didnt mean you can get on top of Lisa

Serena Brooke.

Grits - grood grits at Eddie's diner on Divisadero and Hayes.

The dimsum by Ranch99 is cheap,tasty, and fast...Go4it!

Skeletor, an Audi and fish Bro, Sweet! I thought this board was only hybrid-driving hippie art surfers. We should grab coffee at Peet's on the way over the hill. I'll be the guy wearing the clogs. Bring your Treo and I'll bring mine and we can network while driving our Sport Wagons. Do you road bike too?

Nobody deserves these diasters. But that's the cool thing about mama nature, she doesn't give a shit you are or how much money you have!

I wonder if anyone is trying to Kitesurf the hurricane. I could just imaging opening up a 12m in a 160 mph gust, see ya!

thanks flades i'm on it

what's the best strip club in SF?

wrong blog dude

I love how you can get 3 items for 3 bucks at the Ranch 99 Market along with a whole deep fried Duck.Classic

Serena or Lisa?
uhh, both?

new century

NCT or Mitchell Bros Ofarrell have the hottest! Some insanely hot chicks
Hustler is fun when they have 2$tuesdays

The "NY" pizza on mission is Arnelli between 16th and 17th, which passes as the kinda pizza you find in the Penn Station Sabarro. Only consumed by drunkards and tourists.

Much better is to take advantage of the "only in SF foods" such as the Indian Pizza available from Zante on Mission @ Cortland, or Golden Gate on Judah @ 45th. Best post-surf food is fresh fruit from Noriega Produce w/ coffee from Sea Biscuit. Best pre-dp beer is Flanahan's with the taxi drivers who just got off night shift.

saucy without a doubt

gold club

Yea, what is an Audi A5??

Mitchell bros can be dangerous if you (1) just got paid or have a wallet full of credit cards, (2) have had too much to drink, and (3) are naturally somewhat implusive and in need of instant gratification

I racked up about a $900 tab in one of the private rooms without trying very hard at all

it was lots of fun though (from what I can remember) and as least some of the women are truly hot

i was listening to the radio yesterday and this old indian wiseman was speaking about the impact the human footprint is having on the world. he related how the mayans believed that as the mississipi emptied into the gulf of mexico, it was the center, or belly, of mother nature in this hemisphere, and was seen as the 'provider' for thousands of people in that area. so for the past few centuries, people have been taking the offerings of the river but have not been giving anything of value in return. thus, this man believed that this selfish, narrow-minded behavior was causing mother nature to bring in these devastating storms and hopefully alert people to the destruction their lifestyle has caused....

everyone should agree that no one deserves to suffer through these types of calamities. but this guy had some fantastic insights about modern life that we could all learn from.

Best club: My room

damn i feel so left out. southern food AND hurricane
talk. shit, feels like home. now the blue jay (although
i have not been personally) has according to some
folks i know who know their redneck-type eatins
is good times.

i am jonesing for some big nate's right now.
damn b-b-que is a noun. not a verb. you do NOT
bar-b-que you cook outside, hence cook out.
bar-b-que is a meal you eat not an activity.

in case your week was incoplete without this info.

re: rita...mother nature bats last.
if you live there it could happen. if we live here,
it might shake. the question is will the folks and
their gov't be ready to deal?

judging from the ravaged atm's and gas stations
along the crawling line of cars. we ain't ready for shit
and it is the bottom of the ninth.

Korewin: Ever check out Memphis Minnie's; its been recommended for good bbq but I haven't checked it

BBQ is also a process for slow-cooking meat with indirect heat and plenty o' rub...it ain't just a noun.

i like big nate's, then someone sent me this web link and it turns out big nate was having some hygiene and vermin issues about a year ago

warning, you may ruin some of your favorite places if you spend too much time searching on this, sorry

Once while fishing along the coast in South East Alska I approached an old Indian man with his grandson who was also fishing. I asked him why the salmon had not run yet and why they were so late in running this season. I had been told by many non-Indian fisherman that the water was too warm and that there were currents that were keeping the fish from native streams and rivers, one guy even told me that it was because of bacteria in the water from a red tide almost a thousand miles away. The Native dude took a moment to think than looked me in the eyes and said, "They aren't running because they don't want to yet"

How do guys in Texas stay on it when they have two swells a year?

Powell's is kaput.

Powells has moved to Eddy and Fillmore

korewin - interesting on the bbq v. cookout. you a soda or a pop guy? the 5 or just 5?

for bbq i always like the ribs at Q, but i know it's not the southern style bbq that you guys are fond of. i've heard good things of the place across from toronado, but i always just get a dog next door.

Was someone looking for me?

Surfer Arrested Off Shore Of Galveston As Rita Approaches

A surfer off the shore of Galveston, Texas, was arrested Friday for not adhering to evacuation orders and surfing the large waves created by an approaching Hurricane Rita, according to a Local 6 News report.

The man, who was not identified, was taken into custody by police after coming out of the surf.

You're wrong Blakestah (can he possibly ever be?)

Cheney grew up and spent his formative years in Casper, Wyoming. Served numerous terms as the state's only representative in Congress. After his tenure as Secretary of Defense he moved to Texas for Halliburton. As much as he's a fat fuck, he ain't a Texan.

that galveston surfer reminds me of this===

otf's list could also apply to pacifica, except maybe the y'all part. or even sf outer aves crew for that matter. or any little town on the central coast.

go to sacramento or lodi. it's just like texas.

texas surfers stay on it by travelling alot to mexico. many mainland pacific spots are easy driving distance and often times it's some dude from texas on the peak there, owning it.

pop is so utah.

Fish No Wok.

After the awarding ceremony of the Surfing Cup on Saturday, five women from among the audience participated in a "sexy babes" contest wherein they were told "to do the sexiest thing you can do on stage for the guys."

Local children joined the adult crowd in gawking at the contestants as the emcee shouted: "Do you want them to strip?"

A local woman who called herself "Melinda" doffed her pants and exposed her thong underwear, for which she won the 2,500-peso cash prize and a case of San Miguel Beer.

Friday afternoon...time to stick it to the man and decide which client will be charged for your reading of this week's Niceness literary selection. This author's novel "The Orchid Thief" was the basis for the movie, "Adaptation." Her woman's view of surfing in Hawaii should balance out some of the aggro testorone in here.

"Fish Tacos(homemade with Tilapia straight out of the tank at the Ranch99 market)"??

ho crap man, you ever had an aquarium before? give me fish that live at least in a small pond at least.

RZA, how do you know that? Smells like bullshit to me. Even if he did, stupid bitches in L.A. deserve it. L.A. is a cesspool of humanity descending in a vicious cycle of fucking over each other, and fucking each other into becoming poisonous, toxic people. My guy friends from L.A., in L.A., are all dogs.

Scratch that. I stand corrected.

I live in LA. I'm got some FUN long rights at a point this morning on the south that is still around. Only me and one other for the first hour. 4 others out later. All were cool heads. Couple dudes fishing off kayaks on the way outside. Good vibes. No dogs out there today.

There are lame people in every part of the country.

SUrf! Now work.

Agreed MSG, American made clothing is good with me. I think all those sweatshop workers in Salvador and India would call the Fishers (GAP) asshole before anyone would the American Made American Apperal GUY

nothing against american made clothing. i think it's a great concept that deserves more followers. i've always supported fair trade businesses. i even got some of their shirts.

i've just read/heard a lotta shit about that guy that seems questionable - at least for someone promoting that type of business model. but no one's shouting 'sweatshop!' here.

Founder and senior partner Dov Charney has been at the center of controversy over his fondness for sex in the workplace. In two separate sexual harassment lawsuits, writes Business Week, “two of the women accuse Charney of exposing himself to them. One claims he invited her to masturbate with him and that he ran business meetings at his Los Angeles home wearing close to nothing. Another says he asked her to hire young women with whom he could have sex, Asians preferred.”

as if you guys wouldn't do the same as him if you could!

I've looked at all of the American Apparel ads... UGH is all I could manage to say. I don't care if they're real models, whatever that means, but I do care that they are real -- real ugly. Only one of the models is what I would consider cute. I guess they all pass as being fuckable, but with enough beer, almost anything is fair game (thank God I recently quit drinking). Anyways, Dov Charney can have all those quirky Benetton looking chicks. I'll stick with my hand for the time being: less hassle, no pain. By the way, I don't condone sexual harassment. If it's true, they should hang him by the balls. My sister is going through a sexual harassment lawsuit with an unscrupulous airline pilot. It's pretty sad that corporations and the law still treat sexual harassment very lightly.

Anyways, the guitar festival is rocking so far! Adam del Monte is the new guitar king for the ages.

Well I'll be damned Bstah. They left the Texas residency off Cheney's official biography. These guys never cease to amaze me.

i think the sweatshop workers in Salvador and India would be happy for the work

MSG go kill yourself you're not funny whatsoever

Funny? Who said I was trying to be funny???

Del Monte does indeed play his ass off. Check out local Jason Mcguire-same level. Plays for flamenco dancer Yaliesa

ha! cowboys!

Pretty much sucked... shoulder high on average, but lacking power or anything. Great weather though!
