I love that the surfing world loved this!! I’m sure they ate up your descriptions of the key figures. Can’t believe Surfer reprinted it so many years later! Kills me that you read the magazine every month. Writers are such readers. Tiger Beat! Your performance/reaction to Shea not telling YOU about his beef with the judging was awesome. Wanting to be someone’s—in this case, Cory’s— favorite aunt or waitress is a deeply relatable sentiment. Just what is it about sullen badasses that makes them so exciting, so appealing?
Especially when the sullen badass is a pro surfer. There's just something about them. I think it's a special kind of brain damage that comes of nearly drowning a lot.
Love this article, has a definite flavor of H.S. Thompson at the Mint 400 with fewer hallucinogens. And no sidekick. Why don't you have a sidekick?
You're right. I totally need a sidekick. Preferably a full-blooded Comanche.
Jesus this is good writing. I laughed out loud thrice! God bless you, Cintra
Blessings shower upon you as well, my friend!

Heh heh
“The highlight of the life of Jesus Christ was his rising from the dead.” Or at the very least his Top 5.
I've read this (rather, listened) and now have a reason to smile all day. Thanks Cintra.
Rebecca, is that YOU?? I miss you deeply!!
Dude let's please catch up with each other. Please! I am cintraw@gmail.
I can't wait.
