hey everybody
as im writing this i am sitting in a new appartment on my girlfriends computer surounded by very little of my own stuff.
we have been relocated to this appartment after the fire we had in the old one two weeks ago.
It was falty wireing in the celiing abowe us that caught fire at 0555 in the morning on wendsday oct. 14.
Our hall and bathroos is gone and if its been 6-10 more minutes our celing would have colapsed trapping us inside.
Im pretty happy Gitte got up when she heard a noise or..yeah no more me.
But on the lighter side our hamster "Bonita"has made the news as it survived alone in the appartment :-)
she had left her cage and we couldn..t find her in all the confusion and we had to get out to save ourselfs.
I ended up on the cold street in shorts with my skateboard under my arm( !?! I saved my board?! )anyway when we where allowed back in we where pretty much ready to find a dead hamster but we found her sitting back in her cage in her cocanut.
its been in the paper the day after,was all over the news everywhere , and Gitte and Bonita where  on a talkshow(http://www.dr.dk/DR1/Detnyetalkshow/detnyetalkshow ) this past friday.
it wierd knowing that my life could have ended two weeks ago i have so much more I need and want to get out of life so I guess its time to get going cause you never know when its over..
these days Im thankfull for the little things..

Hey !
I recently Joined Klaus on ice for a couple of Hockey practices with KSF where he and I spent a lot of time in the past.
I started skating( the on ice version ) when I was 4 years old in that club so its always been like a 2end home.
It was great fun to be back out there,the first time in a year or so as Skateboarding has taken over a lot but Hockey will always be there for me I think.
we took a lot of pictures and shot a few things witch should make it into the credits or extra material on " ID Rather Be Skateboarding".
I have the idea that one of the pictures will work as a template for my next deck.
It was funny when I told Klaus that I had this idea for my board design he was really surprised that there where no such pictures all ready.
Considering how much time both of us have spend in the penalty box,or suspended for fighting,I mean Klaus once got a year for punching a reff.( the Reff punched first though )
I guess it is kinda strange that no such pictures where there already cause it has been part of both of our game, I still have the knuckles to prove it :-)
hope you all have Great and Happy holidays
-Mikkel
