Minneapolis is killin'em right now. Cot damn! No gold teef. No pimp cups. No 26'' rims. No fucking T. Pain on the hook. Just straight up real ish.
Just downloaded the P.O.S. "Never Better" album and I can't stop bumpin' it. Just lettin' it play through. This is real hip-hop, kids. Kinda wish I would have picked up the actual c.d. though. Check this out:
Hands On: Never Better
I might have hit ya with a link to this already, but you know you wanted to peep it again.
"Optimist"
Another dope track. Another dope video.
"Purexed"
I love you.

I've played sports since I could crawl. All of 'em. These days I lean toward the action or extreme sports variety. Why? Beating, dominating other people, humans, it's too easy. How many times can I take some hooper to the rack and be all like, "I broke ya ankles!"? I mean, it's fun but I feel like a broken record sometimes. These days I need to dominate a landscape--a whole fucking eco-system. Sunday I took on the majestic McKenzie River with a couple of my compadres. I think the pictures tell the story. You be the judge.

I've been distant. I'm sorry. Oh, come on? Don't do that. I'm sorry. Sincerely. What can I do? Please? What can I do? Just tell me. It's not you. It's not. It's me. I'm not just saying that.
For real though, I suck at blogging. Haven't updated in a minute, so here ya go.
I've been a real busy boy. I swear. Working way too much. I've just about had it with the man. Making pretty houses for rich people. Hating every second of it, well not quite, but almost. Being reminded everyday why I went back to school. Wishing that would start paying dividends soon. Real soon. Got student loans to pay. Lots of loans. The dream is still alive, but in the meantime--a brother's gotta eat.
It hasn't been all bad. I have a little fun here and there. Last weekend I took a little trip down to Eureka, Ca. with my favorite girls in the whole world--the Emerald City Roller Girls--who took on the Redwood Rollers. Here's some pics from the trip:
Me being really cool, again. This was a vista point somewhere between Crescent City and Eureka. Beautiful. After leaving this spot I asked my fellow travelers, "What if the Govinator changed all the vista points to hasta la vista points?" Crickets ensued.
Serious Smack aka Your Mom aka Suzy Ninja Pants and most recently Serious Cliffhanger acclimating to Eureka quite nicely. Pretty much a seamless transition.
The Skatesaphrenics
huddling up. This is moments before they gave the Redwood Rollers the beating of their lives. With this bout they finished up the season a perfect 5-0. Very proud.
Lamp Lumps pourin' some delicious Ninkasi for the homies @ the pre-after party. Gangster ish.
Trinidad Beach. Prolly the most beautiful beach I have ever seen. The iPhone camera doesn't do this place any justice. Really. Check it out if you're in the neighborhood. Trails, surfing, tidepools, etc... Two thumbs up.
Ma lady and I at the beach. No, you can't have her.
Couple of Ochre Sea Stars making sweet love, or maybe they're just cuddling? A bunch of anenomes, and a lone chiton. Love the tidepool! Nature, buddy!
A cute little Lined Shore Crab.
All in all, it was an amazing trip. Some camping in the Redwoods, a little roller derby, the after-party, the beach, amazing company... Good times. Good times.
I love you.

Listen up kids!
May 9th, the Emerald City's very own Skatesaphrenics will be taking on Lava City's Smokin' Ashes. These are these respective league's all-star squads. This ish is gonna be hot, hot, hot.
Last year the Skatesaphrenics traveled to Bend and gave Bend a serious spanking in their own building. They will be looking to return the favor.
Not sure if I'll be reffing this one yet, but I'll be in the building fa sho--Yeah, I got that Skatesaphrenia. Get you some.

Rumor has it that an area would also be built for the roller girls to do there thing, which would be great as well.
Donate if you can, and help spread the word. Do it for the kids.

About a year ago I was messing around and wrote up a little iPhone parody ad for shits, and speaking of shits--that's exactly what the commercial is about--how amazing the iPhone is in the bathroom. Amazing segue, right? Yeah, I know. Anyways, when I wrote this I really had no idea how spot-on I was because at the time I did not actually have an iPhone, and nobody would let me take their precious iPhone into the bathroom with me. Greedy fuckers. Well, I do have an iPhone now, and I can tell you that I was absolutely right.
Here it is:
(sfx & video) Open with classic iPhone music and screen of phone prominently displayed. Pan out just enough to make it obvious that the iPhone user is on the toilet. User is checking email, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
(V.O.) iPhone changed the business landscape, but it also changed the way people do their business. Check and send email while you shit. Check your Facebook while you shit. What are you doing? Yes indeedy, update your Twitter on the shitter--That's right, tweet while you drop heat. Constipated? Turn on your power song (user switches over to iPod function and selects "Triumph" by the Wu-Tang Clan which begins to play) and squeeze out that burrito baby.
(sfx) Loud flatulence and a turd hitting water followed by iPhone user making noises of ecstasy.
(V.O.) iPhone--it's the shit.

When your 401k drops 50% what do you do? When you lose your house, what do you do? and etc. . . I'll tell you what you do--you drink malt liquor.
Oh yes, expect to see blue chip malt liquor brands such as Old English, St. Ides, and Schlitz to rake in unprecedented profits in the coming months. Invest now folks. You heard it here first.
Threw this little print ad together with this thought in mind. Mind you, it took five minutes so don't dare talk shit about my lazy art direction. I'm a CW anyways, give me a break.
*I will not assume any responsibility for your poor investments choices. Come on folks, this is Jake here, I'm a shit talker.*

I know I've been slackin' a bit kids, but I'm a busy boy. Please forgive me. In an attempt to redeem myself I have for your viewing pleasure quite possibly the best commercial ever made. Oh yes. You just wait and see. This thing has One Show Gold written all over it. Enjoy. Love you.

I love Sonic commercials. Love 'em, love 'em, love 'em. They're my absolute fav. Because of these great commercials Sonic is my favorite restaurant and I've never even been there. I never knew who was making these commercials and was always a little curious, so I went ahead and did a little research this morning. The agency is Barkley out of Kansas City. Check 'em out. They're doing some really good work. I would totally work there if I didn't despise KC. Here is a compilation of Sonic commercials I found on YouTube. Really good stuff.

Some real solid student and consumer generated content here folks. A little racy at points and possibly even a tad tasteless, but I love that shit so here it is. Enjoy.

Headed over to the McKenzie for a little trout fishin' today. Hooked into a whole bunch of those suckers. A good time was had. Here are some pictures of the adventure for your viewing pleasure.
*Fish were harmed in the making of this blog. Sorry. Mom said they sure tasted good though*
7 in the morning and not too pumped yet.

Played a lot of this game as a youngster, but never achieved quite this much skill. I guess I was a slacker cause I always went for the 30 guy cheat (up, up, down, down, left, right, left, right, B, A, start or select start for multi-player; for all yall that don't know).
The lesson for the day: With enough determination, some skill, and a little luck--anything can be achieved--yes, even Contra in one life.
Who loves ya? Jake does.

Lets get real, it is pretty obvious that I'm not from Mexico. I have no where near the melanin content to handle such a harsh environment. Look at me, I'm fucking milky. What else do you need? It's pretty obvious that I'm not from Canada either. I have way too much style, grace, and teeth to be one of our brothers from the north. Come on!
I don't even care that I will be driving with an expired license, cause apparently the fucker has been suspended for about a year anyways. Oops. Don't worry cops don't pull over yellow 1987 Volvos. What I am concerned about is the fact that I will not be able to get my malt liquor fix. Oh that sweet, sweet elixir. I'm going to go cry now.

Last fall I took a class called Creativity & Content. This class was set-up in order to help us kids learn to produce work. You name it: Flash, Final Cut, etc. For our first assignment we were asked to produce a video that worked to visually compliment a poem. We were put into groups and told to get at it. I had some ideas, but my group wasn't feelin' em at all. I wanted to write our own poem, or do an interpretive dance, or both--just something completely fuckin' ridiculous cause I had a feeling that nobody else was going to push the envelope so to speak. I actually ended up being pretty impressed with what some of the other kids did; however, I wasn't real pumped about my own group's execution, but I'm gonna show it to ya anyways. Here it is:
Decent for a couple amateurs I guess, but not all that entertaining. I wanted to show those fuckers my vision, so after class I went home and put this little video together, which isn't very good either, but I did it in like an hour all by my lonesome. I didn't end up showing it to the class because I was embarrassed, but I'm gonna show it to ya now, so without further ado. . .
What's the moral of the story? I don't know. Do your thing, regardless of what the hippies want to do. Hippies are stupid. Don't listen to them or you'll end up a pot head with a stupid haircut. Or maybe it is snakes will bite you in the face, so don't mess with those fuckers. I don't have all the answers. I'm an idiot.
