“I don’t call you sun cuz you shine, I call you son cuz you mine!” – Me
Cabo is like 2 hours from L.A. and is an easy weekend getaway. With all the recent killings of Mexican bloggers you might rethink a trip to tequila country. If you follow my tips you can make it through with your cabeza completely attached to your el shoulders.

The Nike pills do not prevent sea sickness. Not falling for that one scumbag brain.

Night time at Cabo Azul. Dress accordingly it can get chilly, but they give you a Mexican blanket!

If you order firewater, you better be prepared to drink it. Yes that is a Betty Boop tie.

This could possibly be the highlight of the trip. You see that husky piano lady? In between La Bamba and the Pee Wee Herman song she would play THIS!

How pissed are you that you didn’t think of that?

Be careful when tipping, it could be in dollars or peso’s.

The language barrier can confuse common situations, but there are ways around it.

It’s easy to make friends, everyone is wasted.

Not a lot of wildlife to be discovered.

This is Beethoven.

I’m on a horse

Not the place to go if you don’t like steak and lobster. I don’t like either.

These guys know any song. They played Rack City and Everything is coming our way.

Spring break 2012. Just like all the other ones cept this one had The Hundreds Carlsbad pants, and not as much Guns N Roses as previous breaks. Sober people are pussies.

If you have ever heard me speak then you have heard the name Jon Roy.

Jon Roy is currently the creative director of Twenty Four 7, the other greatest agency in the world with home base in Portland Oregon.

Before Jon was killing it here, he has a long list of accomplishments that you are familiar with but might not know came from his dome. Let’s start with Concepts in Cambridge. As a young snowboarder Jon and Bobby Soldier created Boston’s first (ahead of it’s time) streetwear boutique. Jon’s passion for creating exclusive retail experiences, ultra rare products and story telling, led him to create Rival. A skate boutique with skate legend Vinny Ponte designer Al Baik. This little hatchet is within arms reach as to always be ready to kill it.

After about a decade of succeeding Jon got Nike’s attention. Nike asked him to move to Oregon to become the Global Nike Sportswear Consumer Experience Director. His first project? Nike Sportswear  21 Mercer St. and a little idea he had called “Bespoke”.

Jon and his team more recently partnered up with Nike and flipped the corner of Hollywood and Vine with a four tier aerodome experience called the Vortex for Nike Sportswear NBA All star weekend.

Don’t feel bad for him, Jon still works on many Nike projects through Twenty Four 7 and bought 2 more cars. All white.

Twenty Four 7 is more than just  design agency. They can do everything, website? app? launch event? You need an Agarwood facade built into your new flagship store in WEHO… they can do that too.

Not many agencies have a full wood working shop on site. (note to self, do not sit on suction table… again)

If you been through what Jon Roy been through, you’d have a fuck ton of Visvim boots to!

This is Jon Roy. Everything he does is 2 years ahead of everyone else. That Bellstaff jacket doesn’t even come out till they open the Bellstaff store on Melrose next summer. When they will be out of style because they are only worn by poser homosexual bikers. I wrote his name in chalk and then took the pic… clever.

Thanks for letting me stop by and tell Mimi I apologize for the influx of emails you are about to receive.

My blog is like a tumblr, except I create the content, and you herbs steal it.

Uncle Todd is not impressed.

This past weekend Buff Monster, Hollywood’s pinkest street artist had his 5th solo show at Corey Helford gallery. This show had something no other show has had ever.

Series 1 of Buff Monster’s very own Garbage Pail Kid inspired sticker card wax packs. Each box contains a complete set, autographed cards, original drawings, errors, and possibly a golden ticket for a original painting. Boxes were $120, they sold out that night.

Fan art.

Hypebeast contributors John Ong and Karl Hab. The grinning Venice local on the right gets a dirt nap 30 seconds after this photo was taken.

Tom Lichtman specializes in obsolete technology support for artists. If you have to ask what an artist is… you aren’t one.

Buff Monster could do whatever he wanted… cause it was  his birthday.

Bernard Von Nothaus was there to support his son.

This is the print for sale. Edition of 50.

The cards are so well done. At press time there was one wax box on eBay.

Happy birthday Random!

Wieden and Kennedy is the greatest advertising agency in the world.  Every April 1st they celebrate the day Dan Wieden and David Kennedy borrowed a typewriter from Nike and made history, it’s called… Founders Day.  It’s an employee’s only event and is usually spectacular. The best rule is no wives or girlfriends… unless your significant other is an employee… which means… shit gets outrageous instantly.
