I finally manned up and gave you the proper subscription I said I would. Especially after you kindly sent me your THPS book, "Right, Down + Circle", which I greatly enjoyed! I still read the weekly newsletter, even though I haven't been posting much lately. Skateboarding needs good writing more than ever though so keep doing your thing, Cole. I just want you to know you are appreciated here even if this thread is criminally lacking in replies and engagement.
