Forget the tests. Forget that book report. Take a 5 minute break and think about the *gasp*, good things about college life. [IMG]http://inlinethumb51.webshots.com/37938/2297060140093834235S600x600Q85.jpg[/IMG] High Fives for JibFest!

I'm out here in the Pacific Northwest to check out the summer ski camps that operate on the Blackcomb Glacier in Whistler for the summer months. It's a first visit to the area for me and I'll be out here for the next 14 days or so. I'm going to hopefully post everyday of the trip. Enjoy! - Dan Day 1 ~ Flying out of Boston early yesterday morning, with a connection in Atlanta, I got into Seattle by mid afternoon local time and took the Light Rail Train (which is a bitch to walk to thru the terminal with 250 lbs of gear) down to the K2 Sports offices to meet up with friend & Line Skis guru Josh Malczyk whose place I was crashing at for the evening. The K2 HQ, which houses the offices for all it's brands, is huge! I definitely enjoyed the peek behind the scenes.

Music Industry Failing

Why is the music industry still moaning? Music piracy is slowing down, more people are buying music and the industry falling out of its slump. The reason is, that their numbers still aren’t as large as they were before. ..........The idea of telling the radio/TV listener what will do well in the charts and therefore you should buy is now lost on all but the tweens. Industry bosses, it is time for a new business model.

[IMG]http://images.newschoolers.com/images/17/00/00/34/66/3466.jpeg[/IMG] Put your skis away because TJ Schiller just closed down the sport of free skiing for the next couple of years. Last night at Winter X Games 10 Ski Big Air, TJ landed a double corked 1620. Yes that is correct, 1620. He just ruined the sport by progressing it way too fast. Because of an awesome couple of jumps by Bobby Brown, TJ had to settle for the silver but I am not sure he is that bent about it. WOW! WATCH TJ SCHILLER'S 1620 X GAMES VIDEO Results: 1) Bobby Brown - 100 2) TJ Schiller - 95 3) Elias Ambuhl - 90 4) Russ Henshaw - 89 5) Jossi Wells - 89
