First off: Comcast, you bastards, turn our internet on.
We hope you all enjoyed your Independence Day. We sure did. We spilled lots of mustard on our shirt (plural?) and threw bottle rockets at squirrels. American as hell.
What did you do?
The 4th is especially significant for the “action sports” community. Just like our founding fathers, “action sporters” are radical dudes. How extreme was it to rebel against the British? Way extreme bro.
