In my teenage years and for the many thereafter, these guys were and have been my heroes.  I just finished watching this film and was truly touched by their stories.  It was so awesome to have it all pieced together in a documentary such as this.  If you were a skater or a fan of the sport in the 80s or beyond, you're doing yourself an injustice if you don't take the time to watch this.  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2129928/ (/goo.gl/Oj8Jq )

Saw Wreck It Ralph last night in 3D. Really enjoyed it though the storyline wound up being a little different than what I was expecting. Still a good story but I expected more jumping between different games based on the commercials. If you're pondering going to see it, I say do.

Hey guys, it's that time of year.  This is really the only official fundraising I do each year so I don't feel bad reaching out for it.  Killian and I will be doing the "St. Jude Give Thanks. Walk." in just under 2 weeks.  I'm getting a really late start on the fundraising effort for it but we appreciate whatever you can give.  

The connected link should point you to my donation page.

Thanks in advance and I hope that this letter finds you in happiness and good health.
