EASTER Longboard

I picked up a LONGBOARD today. It is GREAT exercise and a smooth ride on damaged streets and sidewalks. It is about twice the length of a regular skateboard and the wheels are about twice as big too.
These are LIMITED EDITION, signed skateboard decks from my pals MITCH O' CONNELL and SHAG (Josh Agle). My son JOSH used the first skateboard that SHAG gave me and now will skate on nothing but FOUNDATION Decks. He loves them!
A BIG board...

IT'S A BIRD...IT"S A PLANE...IT'S SUPERMAN!


I am enjoying the newly released DVD box set of the MAX FLEISCHER SUPERMAN Cartoons 1941-1942. They look GREAT in their newly remastered state from the original vault elements! One documentary is good: FIRST FLIGHT: THE FLEISCHER SUPERMAN series with my friends Jerry Beck, Bruce Timm, Dan Riba and Paul Dini....the other doc is not so good. My late animation teacher GORDAN SHEEHAN from COLUMBIA COLLEGE CHICAGO, worked on these and often screened them for my class! Wonderful stuff!
