'One Track Mind' Hits Hard!

Patagonia Cardiff is the place to be! This Saturday night the shop is going to be filled to the brim of persons wanting to take a gander at Chris Malloy’s new film, One Track Mind (previously mentioned as one of the great new Woodshed projects). Gunna be two showings, at 7:30 & 8:45, because of the mass amounts of groms and papis attending. Get there uber early to get a great spot and parking... forget about it. A good time to incorporate public transit into your life. Embrace it! Hope y'all can make it.

Pick 'Em Up!

Vans have released these bad boys! I'm getting mine are you getting yours? The Vans Cojo shoe is one of those shoes. Not just for us dirty hippies, but for everyone now. Tread lightly in these ultra soft and cushy desert boots, featuring top quality EVA construction, and a durable Indo crepe rubber outsole. So it's a great shoe with great enviro-undertones as well. Best kicks around!

Innermost Limits of Pure Fun

Innermost Limits Of Pure Fun (intro)


Just the Intro...

(Kind-of just out on DVD) George Greenough, one of surfing's godfathers, edited and shot this great film which chronicles the advancements of the shortboard revolution of the late 60's, 1968 to be exact. This dvd is surfings homage to the first footage from inside the tube, brought to you through what is now coined 'GreenoughVision', great psychedelic art and sick ridin'. Pick it up at your local shop... Please.

Vote the Environment

Not only are we a product of our environment, we are an integral part of it. This statement seems obvious enough, but in our modern culture human beings often feel separate from nature. We see this when we vote: the environment has become only the 10th most important issue on a list after war, healthcare, education and other concerns. As the foundation for all of life and all human endeavors, the environment should be our first and most important consideration.

When you vote for candidates who support environmental programs, such as school gardens, you are not only supporting education, you are supporting better childhood nutrition, and you are reconnecting the next generation of voters to nature. When you vote to improve water and air quality, you are voting to improve human health. When you vote to provide incentives to use renewable energy, you are helping to create jobs and energy independence, in turn making an investment in peace.

When you Vote the Environment, you are not voting for one isolated issue, you are voting for all of the issues on the list. You are casting a positive vote for life on earth.
