E's Surf Report

first post -- last? post
see you in the water e
surf on brother

"don't shed a tear for me...."

Aloha Brother E... we are gonna miss you from out here on Oahu. Keep up the surf stoke! Much aloha to the niceness crew.. I look forward to what the future holds.

Looks like a job shake-up for E.

Good luck going forward.

In a semi-related topic, I was the one who spoke of working 80 hours in a two week period on a 8 hr a day schedule (with weekends off) or on a 9 hour day with every other Friday off (weekends off).

Both schedules have their advantage, and I was interested in what people would choose given their druthers. I enjoy surfing before work (and sometimes after); doing this is easier when one works an 8 hr day. But since I only surf before work consistantly 3 months of the year, maybe that extra day off would be better?

As for me "only working 8 (or possibly 9) hours day", well, what can I say? I've tried to make a life for me where work time is not maximized or extended or "its what you do to get noticed/get ahead". Has its drawbacks, but oh well.

Thanks for helping us get through the daily grind e! Longskate blog once the rain stops???

Big thanks for the thoughts, the pix, the stoke, and for hosting a hangout for workbound surfers. Good waves to you.

yo what happened? I just checked fucked company and they don't know nothing..........yet.

NOOOOOOO! my boss thanks you but i am bummed. it was a great ride. you're the man e! ill keep my ears out homie

Thanks for the entertainment. My boss also thanks you. Great pics on the front page to end it with. Peace Brudas.

Kaiser and Sanctomex please inform us of where you may go next as I will miss all your work!

Thanks E.

My old gig was a 9/80 work week with every other friday off. Once you get into it, it is soo much better. The extra day off lets you do so much in a given day that haing to take an hour here and there from your daily grind.

e, Peace and prosperity to you. E's was/is a good thing. See you out there, somewehere.

Just surfed a macking magma swell about four miles down...fucking charged it. Keep charging chargable chargeness of charging chargeable charge waves, e-money. Charge? Yes...yes indeed.

What am I going to do all day? (Btw. Staus Flow plays the Mile High in Oakland tonight)

for me, there were two really amazing things about this page, one: it's a BLOG- and two: at times I would actually READ it. thanks e for doing like clockwork what I could never in my wildest dreams imagine anyone actually doing.

Aaaaaaarrrrg! Out of work in Spring is not optimal. Blessed is the SF man who is fired in late September. Wear out your tires on the 1 south and restore and re-stoke at Tres Hermanos or the Whale Watch. Do namers of grub locals get owned?

Enjoy your time off.

E, thanks for the good times! You're too good a writer/poet to not be making a real contribution somewhere. Once you're settled please consider firing back up the niceness!

See you in the water,

~SS7

nostalgia blooms on the blog...

thanks e and to all the names and faces
that i have been able to connect via this
venue, thank you. community is good
wherever one finds it.

3 solid pics too. number one is sickest.
that water looks warm and shallow....
and number 3 is, well that is it. that's why
we're here...

Hb what up?

Your poetic and enticing words shall be missed. You've put a hell of a lot of work into this site for our amusement. Thanks much BRAH. Yes, that's a troll.

the blog will be missed, fo sho. what about making it a for profit endeavor? more like a mag? subscription based? ads? i know that's probably antitheitical to what you are about, but you are supposed to do what you are good at and what you love. and you've already got a pretty decent base of readers. i don't know, just a suggestion. hope you get lots of other ones. see you in the water.

Later all...thanks e.

THIS IS TOTAL BULLSHIT!!! FUCK IT!

keep pimpin' in 06.

egp

I heard that Jamba Juice got bought out by a bigger company. E, wont they keep you on board for a while during the transition?

e - peace to you my human friend

Aloha, e! Somehow it seems totally inadequate to just say: Thanks for the daily stoke and for keepin' it NICE. For the most part, this has been a uniquely sympatico place to hang out and exchange info, ideas and opinions. You deserve huge props for providing us with this forum; and all the "niceness locals" deserve huge props for keeping it interesting.
email us used-to-be semi-regulars and let us know where ya'at.
Good waves and good rides to all.

what do we do all day now? FUCK!!!!

Gracias amigo. Thanks, it's been fun, good luck E in the next step! Productivity going up... work stoke factor going down...

Does this mean I have to start working now?

on the plus side, this blog has no relevance what-so-ever to the ASL.

though the big salt water drip on the conference table during the 10:30 AM meeting does.

never be embarassed when it occurs.

be proud.

this makes me so horny

or the 10:30 PM drip on the significant other...

Sactomex, you are mine, BITCH!!!

Props to ya e.

shoeby go home

Cool! Now OB is suddenly going to get so less crowded.
Or could it be the crappy swell.

Mahalo E.

this blog is rad, sorry to see it go. E, good luck.

Good luck E!
Hopefully we'll see you paddling out as we get dressed in the lot and head to work.

thanks for keeping us eastcoasters envious! i guess it's time i pay attention to my patients...

this feels like the last day of school before summer break. Have a Great Summer! text me everyday!!

Mahalos for a kick-ass diversion from work! Good luck to you.

can someone recommend some other great blogs? like rice rocket blogs or inline skate blogs? Thanks.

is that what the kids say nowaday's? text me every day? dang..

'text me' is for the tame kids.
i think kids are getting so much sex these days, that it would blow minds of us 30+ year olds... damn ho's.

"Mehema koe ka tuoho, meinga ki te maunga tetei."
If you should bow to greatness, let it be to a lofty mountain.

Thank you e.

Thanks E, Have fun.

Kids are kids, they do what kids do.

I for one am happy to see it languish. damn namers.

i was just making a coment on technology in the world today really. like we didnt have no moving pictures kind of shit. it was all "have a rad summer, KIT, BFF" type stuff back in my day, but than we didnt have dvd players either, or ipods, or celular telephones, or internets. anyway im guessing thats why the average age for blow jobs nowadays is like 13. wow full circle.

can Kaiser or Sactomex please post a couple onions as a goodbye present for E and his listeners? Thanks.

maybe a "best of" kind of deal?

Thanks again.

i think that BJ's are probably no big deal to junior high girls these days. damn, i wish i was younger.

Hey E you should let Kaiser or some other head do a daily picture update or something to keep it going.

that alexandre orion guy rules. his shows still up at 111 minna i think..

that dude is about to get stoned by some old lady's pot.

haha the anon guy fell for it... love AO's work. i think his show just started.

stoned.....pot......

meat flaps

3 to 5's pic of Eddie above is fitting
cause for the past few years ...every morning
no mattah what ...... e would go
yeah!!!

one quick question before the game is over. Has anyone been surfing in Poutugal. If so, can you send me some recommendations of 4 towns to stay in where I set up base and score some good waves. trautster@hotmail.com

E- thanks for the best means of procrastination ever..Enjoyed all the pics, discussions, and especially your creative prose pieces. Peace out niceness crew..Keep riding high!

wow! niceness has been a place for piece of mind during the day....you know, something you could always count on. Good luck, great travels and pull in. Thanks for bringing us all together. Here's a poem for ya...........see you on the other side.

There's the wonderful love of a beautiful maid,
And the love of a staunch true man,
And the love of a baby thats unafraid-
All have existed since time began.
But the most wonderful love, the love of all loves,
Even greater than the love for Mother,
Is the infinite, tenderest, passionate love
Of one dead drunk for another.

Good luck E - thanks for everything - Back to myspace...waaaaaaa!!!!!!

A couple a' biggens'




See ya'll at Kelly's

E, thanks for all the space and I'm sorry we never got to play music together. Your place here made OB seem a bit more livable even with all the bvbness around. It's been a great and entertaining snapshot into the testostereone-driven mind-set of many surfers, as well as a connect to the deeper and nicer folk that really make it all worthwhile. I've been meaning to say, and keep forgetting, that my all time guitar hero is Charlie Christian.....check him out if you haven't already
mahalos
doorways are opening for you

E- I cant even begin to describe how much entertainment and enjoyment and diversion I've gotten from your site. I simply cannot accept that niceness is going the way of the I Beam , the kennel club, the UC theatre and all great bay area institutions that eventually succumb to the demands of time and money. Please let us know if we can help and how we can follow your magnificent prose. Good luck my freind!!
peace

Here's one last name for you Pal...

AI Locals Only! Down with the Imposter-Poser!!

he said that the daily was ending, but today's page might go on for a long time, so keep posting.

And now back to our regularly scheduled porn cast...
I'm glad things are ending actually - timely. I met my boyfriend Cadavercobstah through this website. Funny how we broke up last night after seeing Brokeback Beach together at the Castro. Silly argument about anal sex vs. BJ's.
Ta ta I will miss you my love!
Word on the street is that E is taking a job in NY City as copy editor at the New Yorker!

you know nothing. AI is all about the refracting east swell action. you obviously have been missing the best setup all along.

WTF! Assholes! Where, when, who and how will I vent all this negative anti-tranny shoot- from-the-hip vitriolic ranting that is pent up inside of me like a two day old turd- whaaaaaatf? I am at a loss. Please write to me: agnesbtoklas@comcast.net

Prepare thyself for the masses! The time has come, I will be the Jeff Clark of SF Bay. Next up: BI Locals Only!

Two Berkeley fags in a 2004 Ford 250 pull up to the Fort. Wheel right in like they own the freaking place. All piss and vinegar. Talking surf shit and actually trying to vibe da crew. And were laughing at his overweight fat ass and at his brand new Chuck Islands surfboard as he is about to meet Fort Point head on. After yelling at his female companion about not wanting her to paddle out he runs out to the tip about midway. Thrusts out his chest and jumps off the rock between the cove and the tip. What do you think happens? Right. He gets dragged all the way through and is mercilessly deposited akimbo into the corner. He is livid and hella embarrased. His Chuck Islands min-board is dinged if not completely thrashed. Adding insult to injury are his two flat tires. Stay away from the Fort.

we'll stuff you into a decorative glass bottle out on Angel Island and then sell you in the souvenier shop.

good luck in whatever you do, e

Chuck Islands Andy Mallow models are a staggering $689 at Wisenheimers surf shack "since 1968"

The haven't seen boom times like this in surfing since the gold rush day's and they credit it all to the internet.

could have been much worse for the fatboy. he could have actually hooked into one of those ultra-crap FP waves, ruining the entirety of all that is surfing that he had ever come to know.

Stay away then.
But don't advertise your jealousy and inability to get a wave or stand up for yourself. We see right through you.
And you've been warned.

Jamba Juice just got bought for $265 million +.
Holy Phuck. The future = smoothies.

FP is great for practicing half cutbacks!

let it all out bvb!

This is what we learned in the niceness era of surfing.

Ft Point Sucks
Linda Mar Sucks
Dead Mans sucks
internet sucks
ethan sucks
bad vibe sucks
longboards suck
fishboards are gay
shortboarders can't surf
boogie boarding sucks
blakestah sucks
niceness sucks

and you are not allowed to talk about it

I don't know any of you assholes personally, but, I enjoyed your banter, your traniness, and your niceness. Never knowingly met any of you in the water either. It's been a blast eavesdropping on your conversations about spots I've surfed since '70. Yes, I am a local cube dweller of fossil status who only surfs my spot. I rarely venture out to your spots anymore... But know that your all going back east where the money goes a bit further... aloha, bula, adios

is 1/2 a cuttie at the fort better than no cutties at ocean beach? do people ever get full cutties at ob? or does it close out? and peter out and blow out?

loved the blog! thanks for the entertainment. sad to see it go from being a daily post! what kind of journalism job are you looking for?

Tranny bullshit! Going out in flames. All hope is lost...all spots revealed!
Buy my book! Exploiting the surf spots (Real Or Imaginary) of SF Bay.

East Bay Locals Only!

See you all in Surf Hell (lindy of course!)

Secret image of BVB mangaing blog identities from his uber-secret regualtor cave in the cliffs behind the Ft.

Good luck e and thanks for years of stoke.
Thanks to niceness for being the first crew this tranny eastcoast kook found that felt love from our dance in the ocean instead of the usual aggro bs.

"keep surfing no matter what"
"go surf!"
"suurf!"

Noooooooo!!!!! Man, I will miss your writing and the pics. Damn!

Hey, one big question for you guys that I was going to ask later, but will ask now. In June I will be in SF to race Escape From Alcatraz. I will be staying on Lombard Street near the marina. Now I do not surf, but if I wanted just to watch from the shore and take some pics, where could I go? I probably will not have a car, but will have my bicycle.

Also, I will be in town for a week. What do you guys recommend? What are the must do things to see and experience for me and my gf?

Thanks! You guys have been great! Peace!

ahhh maaan! sheeeeeet!!! what a bummer.....thanks e for all your positivity and hard work at keeping this blog alive for so long. and even though this blog may die, the ideas, stories, and knowledge shared here will live forever!

best of luck to e and all the other heads that have made this a great place to start a work day.

Many thanks E! Y'all come back now, hear?

SFK

If you do not surf now, then you obviously never did.

Oh yeah try and pool the masses myself one more time.

Anyone ever been to Madagascar, surf/travel or done anything through wavescapes, trublue travel?
Outer Atolls Maldives, is it really worth it in August/ Sep or is the wind just wrong?
Recs for a place to stay in JBay maybe a cheapish house/ apart rental for a week.

Just tossing ideas around and collecting beta for my unrealized dreams, no plans yet. Thanks again for everyone's continued input. can email offline artifactphoto at yahoo

I'm about 50/50 going to the mar25-27 K38 tow/ open h20 rescue course in MB. Anyone else interested?

Pray for surf! see ya in the h20

I only recently got into this site, it's got all I need - great pics and great vibes. Thanks E for your insights. Mahalo and keep Surfin

One thing to always remember is that you can't have manslaughter without laughter.

everybody gather round......

love that 3rd photo
peace to e and the niceness crew

yeah bye e, your surf report ruled. maybe it will reappear under a new name and at a new location in the future? rizzah, any time your up for it, veal chops for dinner on me over in berkeley. we can bitch about george bush and our shitty cube ergonomics, you know, split a bottle of wine. could be fun, shoot me an email if your up for it: andrew (period) anonymous (at) gmail dot com

good work with the onions sacto, does kaiser care to respond?

Regulator - smegulator. BVB rules.

Kasier is in the hospital having his brain checked after his wife dicvovered his cache of rare Tracy Lords bootleg vid's.

thanks everybody. I plan to post updates here and there for the next few months... so the site's not totally going away. Just maybe not everyday for a little while. give it some breathing room.

I'm actually pitching a story about pollution at Linda Mar so if you have specific stories about P-town illnesses I'd like to here them. (e@niceness.org)

Thanks for all the good vibes. It's easy to be discouraged by the few bad apples but most of the people surfing are strait chillers.

what bad apples?

veal chops for dinner?

baby killer.

I'd like to say that I'm a little sad, niceness has been a daily/weekly addiction for several years. E, thank you for hooking it up for so long, and I'm sure we will collectively be on the look out for new incarnations of the report. The internet is a little less interesting...

Cheers

Artifact, I will be working in Madagascar Aug - Oct. I know very little about the place. Look for email from me.

dude go get your girlfriend another abortion and stop telling people how to eat

oh let's get all pissy and hissy one more time

e, say it ain't so
baby just don't go

You'll be back. They always come back. E, if you can harness this much positivity, then you should get into some work where you can really make a difference....you could effect the world in a big way. Keep on keepin' on.

Laytron

oh my!! are you asking me out on a date, eric?! i know we've exchanged some words but i didn't know i rubbed you that way. of course i'm flattered, but mostly creeped out. anyways, i'll have to check with the wife to see if she approves man-dates. obviously veal is not good for me....maybe i'd be more interested in some zachary's.

Malia swallows!!

It was a short (for me, anyways), but fun diversion. But it's about time I start kicking the electronic chronic. God damn Internet is too addicting. Time to unplug.

Anyways, all good things must come to an end. Good luck, bro.

"If you do not surf now, then you obviously never did."

Correct. No ocean nearby. Somebody has to live elsewhere. I enjoy watching surfing, and want to experience as much as I can while in SF. One day I might try to learn, over here on the Atlantic Coast, but I am a busy camper.

your mom swallows

thanks e. i found the place where i live and my inspiration for my life's work on this here site. you have been a blessing to the community, my friend. :)

thanks e

right on bird and lurker and laytron and bajel and msg and rza and 3to5 and mexi and hb and dano and all the heads.
keep shredding no matter what!

Bummer, can't wait until (if) it comes back. Peace out e.

Anna? where are you?

you called?

shit..

Crap. Now I guess I have to get 'real' friends. And pay for internet porn. And my job is going to suck sooooooo much more. But thanks for the venue e, many good things have come about because of the blog despite a few negative losers. And your dedication to the dp, in all conditions, before work, is and always will be inspiring.

I guess the comments will continue on this post though. But without e's morning positivity, the crap will snowball into some pretty dense shit. Probably black hole quality dense shit. Or the spambots will get it. I'm guessing 666 comments before e comes back. Maybe a hopeful prediction but that's my call.

Oh and I've been looking for high paying jobs myself lately and the best I can come up with is there are a bunch in Dubai and in Iraq. Hate to name but I hear Lebanon goes off once or twice a year. DOH by some reports.

much appreciation e

Yo e keep up the good work..many thanks

get off the sidelines gttim, life is short.

that comment was actually meant for those who 'used to surf', but now accept their non-surfing, spare-tire-at-life fates. those who now live vicariously via blogs and other digital means. reminiscing. there are many out there reading these very words.

Authentic - derives from Author - Authentic Lifestyle, authoring your life.

The women bathing in early march were Owning It.

The vibe is doing it. Authentic. The vibe can be shared. But the vibe is not here. If you are not bringing the vibe, then you are sucking the vibe.

anyone who ever REALLY surfed, would still say they do, no matter the duration since the last wave. even if it was only one wave.

but to never ride a wave?

that is forever.

not judging, I'm just sayin

keep it random e.
enjoyed the vibes you shared.

thanks e been a good ride - 4 plus years for me of work time diversion.

ps. got back from Mazatlan and I got the Tourista illness. Anyway the waves were fun if small. I surfed at the disco everyday since I was too lazy to go to playa bruja. for surf trips there has to be better PEACE AND OUT.

E!

Thanks, guy. Every one of these bloggers should create a website and try to maintain it once a week, let alone every day. I'm amazed you kept it going so long! Perhaps you can come back with a mag format now and then.

The days are still open on the SC shack. Let me know. Rocky won't mind.

You stoked countless people with your positivity. Usually you reminded me how sweet life is, good on ya e!

Thanks for the daily escape e! Hopefully see you in the water. Keep in touch..maybe another niceness bbq this summer.

No such thing as bad surf! Cheers and muchas olas,

Nice stoner rant PNW. "But The vibe is not here"
Why the fuck did you come hang then?
What kind of tool/fool are you?
Grow out

"get off the sidelines gttim, life is short."

Dude, I race Ironman, and shorter tris. I take actuarial exams. I date. I am a hownowner. I have dogs. I have travelled to CA before, and up to NY to race. I will probably race overseas next year. I have wanted to learn to surf, but have not had time. I will, but I can't do everything at once.

Thanks for you input. But telling people to get off the sidelines on the internet is pretty funny.

Anybody with with info for me on SF can reach me at gttimrocks (at) gmail (dot) com

Thanks again. Info from you guys has already help my trip.

Oh fuck off you wankers. E. Shut this beeautch down for a good long while. I may not be "in" with your crowd and you're not "in" with mine so. The thing about *niceness.org* was in reading about the waves and the beach and viewing pic's of her golden flaps. Things that should not be broadcast across the globe; thus attracting the thongs - woops wop throngs. Truth be told let's agree to disagree with the fact that niceness.org has spawned/ drawn 9 out of 50 regular non beach dolts into the water, and onto the beach. Folks that would have otherwise never driven let alone surfed this beaten down, long shore current, wave bombed out beach in the freaking first place. Like the earth (which, by the way "I rule" according to yon Cadaver) and around and around they came.
I personally won't miss visting this webiste. It was a huge time eating diversion. and waste. I did and said what I have done all with the intent of causing strife among these here ranks. I wasn't being a dick to hate you and all these dudes who at times are actually kinda funny... I feel like you're on old girlfriend with many heads. Thanks for breaking it off.

c'mon be honest bvb, this site was the best thing that ever happened to you

gttim, who cares? and why are you on a SURF blog?

E- it wont be the same without ya, but why can't other individuals take on the job of monitoring and continuing the blog? this has become a home for so many people.

hahahaaaa. so easy.

Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out, tranny.

-Skip

WOW, big news in blog-land. E, man, I'll be in touch.

Thanks for all the post-DP mornings of a solid recap. Nothing finer then a sunrise, a surf, a donut, a cup of joe, and some friendly banter. Too bad that went away a while ago.

As for anyone duplicating this ever again, I have no idea why they would even want to. Nothing but flames to those that put themselves out there!

Good shit! You ran a good thing and let's hope it keeps going..........

- Throwing you a perfect, barreling, righthander with no one around for miles!

keep it real e! and good luck! ssssuuuuuurrrf!

If you always give a wave, you'll always get a wave.

FAKESTAH=GONE
E=GONE
NICENESS=GONE

As you were...empty peaks no raving blabbermouthing TRANNY kooking

Getting fun surf will never change but hearing interesting banter will. Love the hecklers. I have written
BVB for President several times. But I was never one of them and came here for the surf, art, music, irieness of it all.

Keep on Truckin' E.

For some reason this Ripley piece sums this site up. And always remember to listen to da blackark!

Perfect Stranger, oil on canvas
60" X 48"

What if everyone left and it was just one idiot talking to himself?

Thanks for the blog... missed the surf reports when this turned into flame central. Next time, require registration to leave comments.

E - great site over the years. Stay creative - it has been inspiring.

e, thank you for keeping the stoke alive and spreading aloha. EVERYBODY's going to miss this blog - jackasses and good people alike.

Yeah sometimes I work nites....I got a bit nostagic looking at some old niceness without all this aggro posturing. E once again the niceness has been a tradition for so many of us, it's truly sad to see it go, but perhaps it went a while ago. Hope to see you out in the surf soon
peace brother

ah, look at him, guys. He's just so happy. Even BVB has his day!

OB is so good today. Kellys is going ARF! ARF, ARF, ARF!!!

fring ports

Big ups to ya, e!

thanks E

SAIL ON SOLAR WIND

"I cannot cause light; the most I can do is try to put myself in the path of it's beam. it is possible, in deep space, to sail on solar wind. Light, be it particle or wave, has force: you rig a giant sail and go. The secret of seeing is to sail on solar wind. Hone and spread your spirit till you yourself are a sail, whetted, translucent, broadside to the merest puff."
(Annie Dillard "Pilgrim at Tinker Creek")

You've helped alot of spirits sail (surf) though the surf report. thanks.

thanks a lot e! see you in the water. hope you can bring the report/blog back... good luck with the job

jonny rottens letter to the rock and roll hall of fame. discuss.

And life goes on.

i thought the sex pistols saying no to the RnR hall of fame was brillant. the best of example of rock n roll attitude to happen in rock n roll in a long time.

hasta la pasta e, thanks for the fun.

if i hear word of anything relevant workwise i'll buzz ya. it's not a bad time to be looking for a gig.

as for you blog starved cubicle denizens:

http://surf.1361b.net/

feel free to carry on there.

i thought that was cool too 3-5

Is it me, or do they waves not look that big nor scarry?

http://www.surfline.com/surfnews/2006_03_13_spain.cfm

its you...

come on, this place sucks now. start posting you fuckers!

looks too big for me.
Ardur spent the fall in NoCal. He ripped.

I really can't even remember the last time I surfed OB. Reminds me of a time I got dumped by a girl out of the blue and she asked me a few weeks later "Don't you remember the last time we had sex - that was nice wasn't it?"

Well no, I don't remember - I wasn't sitting there understanding that the 1237th time we had sex was any different than the 1236th, 569th or 125th - it just was. I didn't realize that day in Feb? was going to be the last time I sniffed a wave at the beach until late March maybe? I kind of feel robbed on both accounts.

amen. rockaway was almost surfable but very gnarly too. plus there's gotta be poo everywhere still.

e. thanks for everything. take care brother.

Kaiser - I hope you are joking. if not, you are just an asshole. :-)

was that sex pistols thing in english?

did somebody say, 'time to hit the niceness archives?'

I just registered the following domain names. I feel that they more accurately reflect the dispositions of this blogs denizens.

airyfairyness
e'sandbagel'snutridingness
hypocrisyness
misogynistness
billiousness
addictedness
larcenousness
tongueinasscheekyness

For anyone thinking of continuing this elsewhere, I will gladly relinquish any of the above names free of charge if you'll just go home.

well I think it makes the most sense that you take hypocrisyness. we'll divvy up the rest later.

maybe you should also look into the following for your own pages:

I think BVB is gonna miss this blog more than anyone else will.
Poor, sad bastard.

I slacked off and didn't check the blog for the past few days and now I've missed the end. Oh well, all good things don't you know...

Thanks for all the stoke e...
You made a lot of people pretty happy.

See ya in the water bro,
come out to kauai whenevas.
Aloha

Guys, I think it only fitting that e's blog be given a proper waterman's farewell. I'm organizing a paddleout, date and location will be purposely vague to ensure that only true ASL followers attend. The beach will first be smudged with sage to cleanse it of any negative energy and dog poop and a stripper from Mitchell Bros. who is also a Wiccan high priestess will preside over the ceremony. As even the ASP must occasionally make deals with the devil Jiu Jitsu Motto will provide security. For those that cannot attend there will be a live webcast. Commemorative souvenir artsy trucker hats by bagel and personally autographed footbags from e. For the irreparably bereaved, as a gesture of goodwill, KCLB has chartered a bus with non-stop service to Jersey City. Hope to see you all on it.

man, there seems to be alot of guys out from Hawaii on this blog... the question is, why???

Argh on the change. E good luck on the job hunt, and if all else fails there's always hustling craigslist, which I've been doing for 5 years now and making more $$$ than I did at my last computer job, and working half as much to boot.

Enjoy the unemployment insurance and post some pics from Baja....

And that pic of BVB behind the scenes is hilarious.

what's that mean..."hustling craigslist". sounds dirty.

We just need a "re-adjustment" around here.

Beware the Angry Imposters besmirching my good name. Blog has closed.
BAD VIBE does not write to this blog anymore under assumed or anon.
Amen.
R.I.P. NIceness.

BVB is a licensed act. The real BVB sold all rights years ago to a consortium of locals wishing to perpetuate the Bad Vibe Bob brand. In the new economy where surfing sold to millions via the internet, even hostility is mass marketed.

Kaiser,
Wow, Now that is what I call art. If it didn't offend so many people, I would plaster my office with it. Instead, I have just put the drawing (a few posts above) of the guy cutting back in the tube in the PNW as my desktop. We all have to make sacrafices.

Adios

Hi, we would be interested in some consulting services from BVB on proven regulating tactics for our area. Unfortunately, a lot of attention seems to have been directed to our local spot recently and trannies are beginning to run amok. We are still trying to determine the cause of this sudden influx.

yeah, it's nearly a perfect ass but check out the strectch marks just above the bikini line on left. damn.

are those stretch marks from taking it in the keester? i hope so.

pronepronniceness

dooood. quit it with the porn - it makes for checking at work a real risky endeavor.

I thought it would have stopped after Bert Gonzales nabbed a couple of you guys yesterday.

Someone from SD give me a Black's report so I can daydream the rest of the day away.

the oregon ones are pretty awesome

Surf Blog Seeker: E's site is closed for maintenance. So, we are technically "offline". I would urge that if you don't want to see the backside of some lassy, you not refresh your browser.

what's up E, don't check the site much at all anymore, good luck on your next endeavor!

My friend and I have been niceness readers for some time and are completely devastated at its demise. Therefore, in a push to resurrect the site, we hereby protest it's closure with a one-legged defiance stance. We have pledged to stand together until niceness is reincarnated (with daily time-outs for afternoon naps and dim sum).

BVB and boyfriend Cadaver put out new issue of ITG!

All is lost! WHO CARES?

at least the mysto power spot was not revealed.

The next guy to post burgles turds.

BVB RULES!!!
You got a big fan club uncle Bob, you will be missed.

turd burgling is the new black

black was awesome

black is awesome.

Hi. My name is Cadaver.

downsizing

To Just Curious-

Yes, hustling Craigslist could indeed be dirty, but in my case and what I was recommending to E is just doing contractor computer gigs. It's amazing how much business is done in the Computer Services section of Craigslist. If you're good with HTML/Javascript/PHP/ASP/ASL or any combination of those (ok maybe not that last one), there's no reason to have a regular job. And when the surf's good just tell the clients you're booked.

dude, check out the Hawaii surf blog. There is something on there that is super hilarious!

How do you leave comments on that Hawaii blog? I want to call the guy a namer-claimer but can't figure out how. Aren't there a bunch of angry Hawaiian computer locals to harass that guy? That site is way too peaceful. No entiendo.

Hey BVB, that Hawaiian guy is naming Lanis! Go get him!

Go get yourself.

The Blog that wouldn't die.

I just spoke to E and it turns out this is all just a plan to dump BVB and his possee on that Hawaiian guy's blog. As soon as they're gone, the blog will be back.

springthomas (dot) com

great blog there, she even posts vids, mainly rides big logs though.

Yum, silicone and cream.

i think it's soap.. that wouldn't taste good

I just kicked my chick out of the house. she was supposed to be out by the first, we're in the process of breaking up, but she pulled a doozy last night. She looked elsewere for attention, in the form of a guy she used to date. Should'nt have let it drag on this long. Fucking insecure bitch. At least it makes it easier in a fucked up way.

Hey man, I surf at a spot I call Loveline. Don't you know namers get owned? Watch out.

Loveline, that chick is like the neighborhood bicycle, we've all had a ride. dump her ass quick. you know she will go back to that other dude, she has his balls in her purse too. take yours out, and dump her now!

She dumped herself last night. Thanks for listening.

3to5-

You won't believe this, but in 1969 my family lived in Bird Rock and my grommy friends and I surfed Windand'Sea and Big Rock every day. Got to meet Skip Frye when he shaped this very cool board for me. Fond memories.

Localism was actually worse in those days.

Hey, E. Why not just login once a week a dump the last 100 posts? Let the thing go.

Bruce

In the spirit of "can't believe"...

Who was Skip's bro in law?

What was his wife's name?

And who was her sis's son (me)?

You should be able to answer at least the first question fo me to believe...

Maybe you'd like to fuck his ass and sniff his wettie? Let it die you fucking homo's.

heard it was so. Keep it light and real (just not real light). On the other hand, may the bad vibe boneheads who didn't (and don't) get it experience a midwinter cleanup set on the head. Won't do anything for their attitude, but it will make me feel a little better. Adios, maholo - may some of your vibe endure in the lineup.

BVB and his family walk into a talent office.
The agent asks to see their act.
The family gets right into it.
BVB starts sucking his daughters cunt while she fingers the family dog up the ass. Mrs. BVB starts sucking his son's cock, while grandpa takes off his dirty dipers and wipes it on his cock to lube it up. Grandpa then procedes to stick his cock up BVD's ass. All the guys then have a circle jerk and spew on the floor. Grandpa drops the remains of his dirty diapers onto the floor and they all stir it up with their fingers.

BVB scoops up some of the shit/cum mixture with his fingers and procedes to draw a dirty sanchez moustache on each of his family members.

The agent then says "great, what do you call this act?".

"The aristrocrats". Says BVB.

another, no longer so anonymous, shit talking hypocrite gets outed. maholo (sic) to you too banjo

Aristodroid:
Nice non-literary work on pro child molesting and associated anti-gay, anti-family hate. Are you alone and do you hate your life. Are you filled with envy, jealousy and rage about your sorry little self. Are you watching television? Do you masturbate enough? God. What a sicko.

you dont have to keep on reading, shit head.

i bet bob's surfing fort point right now. what a kook

What's with the budding BVB saintdom movement? On the one hand he exposes as many people as possible to surfing through his surf art curating, and on the other he bashes the exposure this blog gives surfing. Huh?

Don't get me wrong, I have nothing against him putting on surf art shows, but there's a point in there somewhere. And lets face it, the guy's a dickhead, and he's probaby largely responsible for the demise or hiatus of one of my favorite websites.

And I've never met him, but by all accounts he's a dickhead in the water too, and that makes him an absolute piece of shit in my opinion.

Not that I necessarily think it's cool to bash someone anonymously on a blog as I'm doing now, but please, don't encourage the little fuck.

Now back to the postings of dirty hand towels and girls wearing bikinis with the price tags still on.

doc aka skip family guy

My dad was Provost of the USIU campus at Scripps and we lived on Linda Rosa Ave. off Forward Ave. in Bird Rock. I learned to surf at PB and then spent every waking hour (when not in school) surfing Big Rock, WindanSea, Blacks, Swamis, and other spots my cousin could drive us on a couple of bucks of gas. My dad was kind enough to buy me a custom board and I ordered one from a local place (PB Surf Shop?). Nervous as hell I went there and watched Skip shape this beautiful board. Wish I still had it. Only saw him surf once. Incredibly graceful on a big board. Cant answer the other questions, other than Donna should be Mayor. Do you know about that big desalinization plant they had on Point Loma in the 60s? I think it was disassembled and moved to Guantanamo Bay. Jeez Im getting old.

Shit, I don't care what the fuck board your dad bought in fucking 1974.
Nobody else probably gives a fuck either.
The end of transplants fucking having any say in this little part of California ended a few days ago. Go fucking home then if you feel even slightly uncomfortable.
No one fucking asked you to come here.

ISP please... ,

Can't take a fucking joke? fucking PC transplant poseur. Go the fuck back east.

WE are thinking of doiong a BVB fansite: forums, BVB-inspired art, a chatroom, fanclub, a biography, souvenir shop, membership opportunities! and so much more. The possibilities are unlimitless!!!
This BVB vitual community will be aggressively marketed towards todays novice surfers that are really looking for an "EDGE"!

Digression away from the original flow of this site, especially at this point in time, is a little sad and ridiculous. Late night check per the time honored tradition turns into a stroll down a shit filled lane. I guess it really is mostly over...here's hoping not, otherwise enjoy. e, I think mahalo is the best sign off...thanks, you're the man, much appreciated and keep up the good work (wherever it may be).

cheers

the waves were fun this morning at the vague is vogue spot. the sun was shining with reds and yellows, and the clouds, the clouds went on forever all fluffy and niceness. the people were smiling and we all shared the peak harmoniously. The good vibes were everywhere and they went on forever too. all fluffy and niceness. my sooperscooperwhooperdooper fin setup was timedimensional and my new fishswishbonzywobbler was glideramically fluffy and niceness.

Bruce surfs way better than BVB

yes please, back to the patchouli scented descriptions of the dance we do sprinkled with sanctimonious BVB and KCLB bashing and please stop the hate, well... at least the kind we don't like.

http://starbulletin.com/2003/01/27/features/index3.html

Without too much trouble one can picture some Ugh boot BVD wearing clod chipping away at the key's scratching his nads and head; terrible thoughts wash over him as he writes. His self hate and pent up surfer anger ( now that surf season is over he's a big fat "nobody" again) hurling forward and all he can see is a giant BVB logo looming on the horizon and he hates himself all the more. He contemplates: BVBVBVBVBVBVBVB over and over in his pea brained over sized head. His ruminations on surf culture and art go nowhere; he hasn't got the tools to handle such complicated matters so he lashes out and thinks he's being "creative " in writing anonomously to a blog where its day has come and gone...
What drives a person to think and write such things? What kind of mind-in-retrograde posts such pictures? These are the people that share our city with us; these are the people you see on the road, the snots and the clods of time lost in some sort of hellish whorl...
Niceness. R.I.P.

hey - another vons out there! tight. nice links but what's with the wedding photographer link? anyway you can have the handle since you know how to make hyperlinks.

quit that nasty shit

Without e...is there hope for this blog to be about surfing? Or are we destined for the random poopy diaper, shitty toilet and gaping wound?

" If I say its safe to surf this beach Doc, then its safe to surf this beach. I mean I'm not afraid to surf this place, I'll surf this whole fucking place! "

"What are they gonna say about e? What are they gonna say? That he was a kind man? That he was a wise man? That he had plans? That he had wisdom? Bullshit man!"

"What the hell do you know about surfing? You're from goddamned New Jersey."

queue up the flight of the valkyrie

"... the horror ..."

cuz charlie don't surf

and napalm sticks to kids

E is gonna come back and kick your asses for fucking around on his blog.

BAM!

Stay awqay from the point, lest you feel the wrath of "the big red board", Bigfoot is watching from the trees and there are aliens among us, watching, waiting, anticipating the day when Allah shall triumph and the infidels shall destroy one another in a blaze of mushroom cloulds and spelling errors.

wow. anyone who talks to e should tell him to just shut this down as it has become the idiots playground. what kind of a loser posts those gross pictures? guess what losers at the exact moment while you were posting that crap people were out getting waves, getting laid, having fun, partying while you are on the internet digging up disgusting pictures and posting them on a semi-defunct blog. get a life you sad losers!

"What do you call assassins who accuse assassins? "

ooh, I know the answer...niceness?

e is gonna be so pissed you ruined his blog, you dicks.

Next time you meet a chick and she asks what you are into be sure to tell her that you enjoy looking up pictures of garbage and dirty toilets on the internet and posting them on blogs. It is so cool!

ok, this is like that movie when there's a nuclear war and all thats left are people all fucked up and radiation poisoned, wandering the streets trying to eat people. dang. luckily i was hooking up with a hot chick at the time of the explosion in a movie projector booth, the only place that radiation cant reach.

i guess it was a comet..

Sometimes I recall what might be refered to as my 'golden days'; my thoughts were innocent musings on occilations, territorial aggression, flaps, and corn. I seem to have lost my conscience. Now like so much hangover hurl in the shorebreak my thoughts swirl through the ether, bukowskiesque, they unconsciously reveal the true soul of the animals who created me from nothing.

“For those who believe in God, most of the big questions are answered. But for those of us who can’t readily accept the God formula, the big answers don’t remain stone-written. We adjust to new conditions and discoveries. We are pliable. Love need not be a command or faith a dictum. I am my own God. We are here to unlearn the teachings of the church, state, and our educational system. We are here to drink beer. We are here to kill war. We are here to laugh at the odds and live our lives so well that Death will tremble to take us.” - Charles Bukowski

Interviewer: Now for the important stuff: What's the deal with your hair? Is it real?

GS: It's real. It's my natural hair. It's a combination of hair spray and hair paint to get the color. I've always looked a little different. It's good though because when people see me on the street or on TV they say, "Hey, there's that psychic guy."

Ok. Are we done now?

It's the "this used to be a great place to live and surf until..." vs. the "this used to be a cool place to hang out and talk about surfing until..."

yea e, kill it please

Beginning the fourth year of an unpopular war, President Bush defended his Iraq record on Monday against skeptical questioning. He said he could "understand people being disheartened" but appealed to Americans to look beyond the bloodshed and see signs of progress "looming right around the way a bit".

huh?

Adios, amigos. This site was a wonderful retreat from the stress of work and home life. It was a chance to swap stories, photos, board designs, political opinions and totally boring discussions about localism. Ethan made our lives more interesting and fun, and we shared a moment in time. We owe him.

I had the great pleasure of meeting E although I’m not one of the OB locals. He is a thoughtful, sensitive and funny guy. Total niceness. If you are that kind of person, can you imagine the frustration when people post angry messages and potty photos on your web site?

Too bad. But I think this might be a larger issue with the internet. Total freedom and anonymity in the interest of freedom of speech? Where is the accountability?

Thanks, Ethan. It was fun but you don’t have to keep it up.

Wake me when it's over.

Hope for Lindy?

BVB's Surf Report?

DARN. It's so frustrating when you try to share the stoke and happy feelings of surfing and people just post angry messages and potty photos!

The site is the best it's ever been frankly.

No more circle sucking, naming or claiming.

yea it is
