Eric Groff`s gonna eat this stuff up, but...

It looks like Kona may not be in the cards for me.

I`ll try to keep this short, but it starts with my biz and the weather we`ve had this past 2 weeks. I do pest control and specialize in exterior perimeter treatments (staying away from chemicals inside yer homes) and in the past 2 weeks, we`ve had 5 days of rain. Normally that`s not a problem as I can make that up in the following weeks afterwords.

And on top of that, I`ve also had to go to school as part of my continuing education credits to renew my licsenses come end of june. So that`s another 2 days lost.

I`ve been working 7 days a week now to try to catch up and now the big punch....

My 2001 Toyota truck caught fire today. So now those missed services can`t be done, also the regular services as well, and since the truck has succeeded the mileage on it`s warranty, a major repair bill coming.

Not good for my first year in biz (well not quite a year...june 30)

Woe is me and skating will have to take a back seat. Shame since I "KNOW" my boyz will be taking the prizes and I hate missing out on that.

Go get ~em FL RATZ!!! I`ll be there in spirit if I can`t be in the flesh.

dude,
sounds like the best thing you can do is get yourself offa' this stress wagon you've been riding and get on your skateboard!
hell, it's only like 5hrs drive from your house to KONA...hop a ride with someone and go smile for a day!
forget racing, just go enjoy rolling on concrete.
don't forget, it's all about having FUN bruddah!
