He&#8217;s taking this semester off from college so he can MC a contest Mike Crum is organizing at the Allen skate park. According to Burkle, Crum has secured Busch beer as a sponsor and is offering to pay [...]]]></description>

   The other day while I was cleaning out some old files, I came across some letters Kevin Mouton had forwarded to my skate zine back in the early nineties. Kevin and Adam Young had been skating in their high school parking lot when two men attacked them with brass knuckles. The two [...]]]></description>

 The turnout at the skatepark closure meeting this morning was substantial. Every TV station I could think of was there. Oh, and there were a lot of skateboarders as well. A few brought the attitude that the city needs to shut the hell up, pick up the trash, and open the skatepark. But most [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Skaters and skateboard sympathizers living in Williamson County have the opportunity right now to help get a skatepark built in their area. Although it&#8217;s not mentioned on the Williamson County Bond website, there is $300,000 included in the Parks bond package for building a skatepark in their regional county park. Since Cedar Park bailed on [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This past winter skaters and bmx&#8217;ers attended public input meetings to lobby for public skatepark funds to be included in the next city bond. Having already convinced Travis County commissioners and voters to allocate $500,000 in last year&#8217;s county bond election, the momentum was in force for the city bond lobbying campaign. This vocal crowd [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Perhaps fearing for his safety, ex-Mayor Bruce Todd enlisted two APD officers to escort him to August&#8217;s public input meeting at City Hall where he promoted his case for a law requiring all adult bicyclists to wear helmets. He rallied perhaps 20 people to make emotional pleas that a helmet law would save lives or [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Having been inspired by friends with knuckle tattoos, I&#8217;ve lately toyed with the notion of getting my own finger ink. As with anything permanent, it&#8217;s been hard for me to make up my mind as to what I want to run with forever. Nathan Black has put together a cool website that hosts an archive [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[While cycling about friday afternoon with my camera, I caught the unmistakeable odor of rotting flesh near the Congress Avenue bridge. So pungent was this smell, that it overwhelmed the pervasive bat turd stench that usually greets pedestrians crossing Town Lake. I&#8217;ve read the Zombie Survival Guide cover-to-cover three times, so I&#8217;m clued into the [...]]]></description>

The opening volley was tremendous. The proponents of the law had lined their top speakers up on the roster and Mayor Will [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[
Austin&#8217;s congressman, Lloyd Doggett, voted in support of increasing FCC fines for broadcasters. The Broadcast Decency Enforcement Act raised fines from $35,000 per incident to $325,000 when Doggett and his peers voted the act into law earlier this month. 
Last year I asked Lloyd why he supported this morality-in-the-media witch hunt. I asked him if [...]]]></description>
