"The driver of a concrete mixer got more of a ride than he had bargained for on Saturday morning as his cab fell through a ramp leading to the roof of an Arts District warehouse.
The truck was left with its nose pointed straight into the air, and several cubic yards of concrete poured into the business below.
The driver was treated by paramedics and transported to Los Angeles County USC Medical Center, but was described as having only minor injuries.
Officials from the city's Department of Building and Safety were called to supervise the truck's removal from the building at 1248 E. Palmetto."

somehow i don't think their insurance is covering cement trucks falling from the sky.
sucks for the guys who frequent the park but at least more of them will hit the streets and log some footage.

It's just a joke. If you Google map their address (684 S. Myers, Los Angeles, CA 90023) you see there is no ramp onto the building.

Myers is the offices, I believe palmetto is the warehouse with merchandise for the mailorder, and the skatepark is neither of those. Palmetto is where they had the "garage sale" with no garage sale prices, and it does have a ramp up to the second story.

Oh my god SF, just like most of the public out there you are SO misinformed and ignorant about the religion of Scientology. First of all, Xenu is an evil intergalactic entity, not the Jesus or God of Scientology. If anything he is the Devil of Scientology. Secondly he is nothing to be made fun of and joked about like he is a fictional character. Xenu is very much a historical person who existed and did much harm to many races of people all over the galaxy.
You see, 75 million years ago Xenu, with the help of psychiatrists, and under the guise of income tax inspections, gathered up billions of people from the population of his 27 star and 76 planet Galactic Confederacy who wore clothes that looked exactly like clothes we wear now and used cars, trains, and boats that looked exactly like the type we use now, froze them all in a mixture of alcohol and glycol to capture their souls, loaded them into a spacecraft that looked exactly like a DC-8 but without engines, flew them all to Earth, unloaded them all around the bases of volcanoes, and then threw in hydrogen bombs, detonating the volcanoes, and killing the billions of kidnapped aliens turning their souls into Thetans.
As if that weren't enough, then Xenu captured all the disembodied souls from the explosion in an electronic ribbon, forced them to watch the R6 Implant for 36 days which is a "3-D, super colossal motion picture", that implanted misleading data and robbed the Thetans of their personal identity, causing the Thetans of the exploded aliens to cluster together and enter the few surviving aliens creating Body Thetans which still cling to and adversely affect all of the humans on earth.
SF, you're obviously not operating on a very high Thetan level, thus your foolish ignorance of the history of the galaxy. Luckily for you there is a way out of your clouded, Thetan affected mind state. Simply pay well over $100,000 for courses at your nearest Scientology Centre, and you can be as clear as Steve Berra, Jim Greco, Jason Lee, Eric Koston, and all these other awesome people: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scientologists#List_of_members. (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Scientologists#List_of_members.)
I hope this has enlightened you a little bit.

Did the AP article mention the Berrics at all? Or did they just report that a cement truck fell through a roof? You see, I did not deny that a cement truck fell through the roof. I just doubted Berra, his thetan level is way to high to be trusted.
You need to stop using hyphens, when you mean to be using commas. Also, ellipsis should not replace periods. Though I am sure you felt smart knowing what AP meant.

Off topic but I watched an episode of Futurama last night and finally saw Ethan Bubblegum Tate. Never in my life have I laughed so hard at a Futurama episode. It was a good one. The one where Bender cooks in a competition and Tate is a judge.

the ramp where the mixer fell through leads to the roof of the adjacent building to the berrics "offices"
as seen on previous pics, the top of that building is where the garage sale was
the ramp is pretty much connected to the berrics offices so i'm sure they got some damage
the berrics park is about 1-2 miles away from there
i parked near the berrics offices going to event nearby that day and saw all that chaos, i thought they were filming a movie

The concrete just felt that there was an unmeasurable wackness going on in the office below, like skaters only skating perfect made wooden structures. And the concrete decided "There should be a rad-ass pool in there". But it had forgotten that there was still a truck surrounding itsself. Oh well.

I disagree. He's running a mailorder, which can put shops out of business. If they ran something like the DLX Skate Shop Connect program, I can respect that. But, at least half of the people who buy from skate shops are kids, who love the Berrics enough to buy shit from them, instead of going to a local shop.

You can't make everyone happy in skateboarding. Kids are going to buy from whatever is "COOL" at the moment. The companies and dist. are still making their coin and staying alive and the core skate shops will stay alive from the dedicated support from the local scene. Everything will run it's course. But to say the Berrics is putting shops out of business is an overstatement.

I never said that Berra actually puts shops out of business. I said that his mailorder has the potential to put shops out of business. A couple boards and shoes a month do make a difference. I don't feel sorry for him because of how cocky he is.

So buying from any company over the internet could "potentially" put shops out of business? Is that what your saying? As kooky as it is at least the Berrics is run by skateboarders and is strictly skateboarding. As KOOKY as it is at least it's not Joe Shmoe's Xtreme Sports. I will never have a reason to buy anything from "the canteen". But the Berrics will never have the potential to put core shops out of business. Bottom line.

look on the bright side, at least sunscreen is generally waterproof

I don't know why they made such a big deal out of that. The cement truck fell through the warehouse next door to theberrics office. Ruined a lot of their neighbors stuff and roof, all that happened to theberrics office is water spilling from the cement truck through a door that connects their warehouses and water damaged the batbox shoes. Thats all. No clue why their claiming it went in their roof and that they need to fix stuff other then mop their floor.

I prayed for a missile, but the cement truck is good enough.

oh no this is the end of skateboarding as we know it kids are gonna have to go skate the gruesome streets
