- For those of you who ask if I've heard from Scott lately:
AIM IM with Scott Howard : Fri 8/15/08 1:32 PM
Scott Howard: Mark... you there....
Scott Howard: HI.
Mark Winn: Totally here.
Scott Howard: Action Leather vs Nubuck?
Mark Winn: My preference?
Mark Winn: Action Leather.
Scott Howard: That's what I thought...
Mark Winn: Nubuck attracts dust like no other.
Mark Winn: 1. Suede.
Mark Winn: 2. Smooth leather.
Mark Winn: 3. Action leather.
Mark Winn: 1,000,000. Nubuck
Mark Winn: Of course that's not very animal friendly.
Scott Howard: Is action leather from cow?
Mark Winn: I believe it contains Hide of Cow, yes.
Scott Howard: What would I do w/o you?....
Mark Winn: Have one less tall/bald friend probably.
Scott Howard: Correct.

Ok, so more Youtube madness today, as far as music and videos. PAUL DATEH & INKA ONE. Wood and vinyl brilliance that reminds me of the UNWRAPPED series from Hidden Beach.

We had one of those 'good times/good friends' nights that we really need more of. Refreshing to just kick back with tacos, belgian ales, rum and Jenga!!! KARLA MAKES HER MOVE While Estelle and Kanye hang in suspense and Busta Rhymes screams 'Gimme some mo!'(macbook pro). CASEY PULLS HIS PIECE and PLACES IT. I think, at this point we had reached 22 inches. ALLY CAME THROUGH WHILE KARLA FELL ASLEEP and TIFF WAS LEFT with only a few choices. That ended up being the last round before it crashed and everyone went their merry ways. Thanks for the night everyone. - Monday, April 07, 2008
Juuuuuuuuuuust in case you didn't know, THIS IS HOW ALLY IS ROLLING right now, thanks to some pesky car thieves. UPDATE: The lower center grill is also now missing due to a rain-boot in the middle of the 5 freeway. Do you think that someone is now prancing around with one wet foot while the other is bone-dry? Chances are, both are dry due to our recent weather. Also, do you think he/she has any idea that the boot he/she is now missing caused $400 in damage to a 3 week old car? - Sunday, April 06, 2008
Early skate session today because Tom Blosch was in town. We drove up north to skate the PQ park for a few hours. Tom, you need a good coating of Rustoleum and you're good for the summer. The 'sesh' ended LIKE THIS at about 11:30 AM. Oh, and Tom, consider your damn self congratulated! I'm like, totally, like stoked out to the max for you! We think you're making a good decision for once. HA!!! - Wednesday, March 12, 2008

Wenger and BILLY happened to be in Los Angeles yesterday and rolled down to chill only to end up watching the Super Bowl at Fousts as a result.

Travel day: I've been a little stomach-sick today, I think because of the shift in diet. I had bought some books on Saturday at the Page One bookstore that were removed from their sack and stored in my luggage in case I needed the a barf-bag. The time was passed by staring at the floor and thinking about all the track bikes I'd see in Tokyo. Once we had checked in at the airport, Scott helped me out with a little ginger and hot water to calm the nausea. We arrived in Tokyo a and took an hour bus ride from the Narita Airport to our hotel in Shibuya. Basically it's like this: nice hotel-check, open shower with trough-like drain-check, gourmet curry vegetable room service-check, and I'm going to bed. Not a lot of photos from today: I FOCUSED MY ROOM KEYKOWLOON LIVINGMY HOTEL IN TOKYO W/ STRANGER SOCKSROOM SERVICE WAS THE ONLY THING OPENMY VEIW AT NIGHTI CAN SEE SHIBUYA STATION- Sunday, January 06, 2008
These two photos were shot by our Art Director, Mr. Scott Howard and will have to do until tomorrow morning when I feel like I've hopefully regained my writing ability (which has been in a slump, slumber or rut for the last couple years). Hong Kong is truly sensory overload and I could probably wander it's patchwork of streets until my last gasp and love every minute of it. In fact, HK has been every Loverboy hit all wrapped into one: Working for the Weekend, Turn me lose, and Lovin' Every Minute of It. Although, this is China and not Canada!

First of all, Merry Xmas to everyone, and I use the 'X' because I wish to wish everyone a happy day...which I should do every day. Started out the day with having Fly and Sara*Sara over for some breakfast out in the yard. McKinney joined us a little bit later and we set out on a ride. Everything was easy running, we set out by riding down through Mission Hills and down to the bay where we caught the ferry over to Coronado. That island has the smoothest and widest roads in San Diego, I do believe. We ended up at City Deli in Hillcrest because 1. We like it, and 2. It was the only thing open.

We tried to have an early morning skate at the Irvine Spot today but it turned out to be a nooner. Teit, Dr. Dix & I rolled up to the spot and ran into the rest of the San Clemente crew at El Toro later in the day. It's way more fun than just a little bit to skate with all of those dudes. Big thanks to Teit for both driving and snapping these: OLLIE OVEROLLIE ON- Saturday, November 10, 2007
- To all my friends with iPhones: Stop! The pesky little devices are now making their way into my dreams and it's to the point where I actually own one--until I wake up. it's wicked and weird and much too vivid. That's all. I'm cool with everything else you're doing.
Keep on keeping on.

- I'm about to drive across Camp Pendleton and into the office, just so you know. It looks like there was another fire at the truck scales at 6AM this morning. Right now, the CHP website says everything is cool on the 5S. I'll try to snap some more photos.
10-4!
- Wednesday, October 24, 2007
- A ton of helicopters in the sky right now. Ash looked like snowflakes last night. I don't think I'm going to work today, for my parents, wife and others concerned.
- Just kind of watching this stuff: Breaking news from the television and CHP say that the fire is 4 miles from San Clemente and headed Northwest. The 5 freeway is now closed to both northbound and southbound traffic.

- Eerie days with this fire stuff. I left the office last night at 2:30 AM and got home at 3. By the time I woke up at 6:45 the GTI was covered in ash and soot. It sounds like my commute might be trecherous driving south across the base and into oceanside due to the 15 closures. Cover your faces everyone, right now bandanas can be used for more than just profiling like you're some hipster bandito. Be safe.

We received tragic news on Saturday that my uncle Karl N Pedersen (my real uncle as opposed to Tom, who isn't really my uncle) had passed away. So off to Utah we go! Due to some gnarly work deadlines we had to make a short trip to Salt Lake City for the funeral. Ally (my wife as you all know) and I flew out on Wednesday night and returned early enough on Friday morning to make my lunch meeting (which turned into a different lunch meeting for goofy reasons). The funeral services were peaceful and it was great to see long lost relatives. Later that night we had dinner at my sisters place and hung out with the Royal-Fam. Good times for bad reasons I guess. Karl, hate to see you go... but I'm happy you're at peace. That's basically how I feel about death and dying I guess. Photos: HAVE TO LAY OFF OF THOSE BURGERS

We just got back from San Diego where UNCLE DICK and his girl Amy were visiting. We cooled it in Ocean Beach, scooped up some lunch and eyed up the coastal wildlife. The evening found us on the island of Coronado (an island that's only almost an island at best) where we partook of some hillbilly soda at the park with hundreds of oddly normal people listening to a cover band play old rock n roll hits. I'm not really into 'hits' so I got down with some killer people watching, I totally have to have a VISOR LIKE THIS ONE. Tom, nice having you here, even though it was short. Amy, wonderful to finally meet you and know that you actually exist. Thanks for showing us two new restaurants as well. - Saturday, June 16, 2007
The DC SP08 catalog season over and out of our hair Ally and I once again have the time to ride our bikes together. We got back to our normal Sunday ride to Dana Point harbor and back. Life is pretty def when it slows down enough to realize. Photos: ATTEMPT TO BEAT J.FLY'S MYSPACE ICON

We had to take a break from hanging out with my sister for a co-ed bridal shower for Pat and Laura, the only two IN THIS PHOTO who aren't wearing white shirts (I guess they haven't yet caught the summer-time vibe). I'd congratulate them on here, but I'll probably do that in person sometime during the month of September. THIS was the expected reaction to my lt.edition King of LA, Lakers colored DC shoes. I'm glad JBeezy wasn't there to give me heck. - Saturday, June 09, 2007
It's not often enough that we have family in town, even if it isn't our town. My sis flew to San Diego for a weekend of golfing Torrey Pines so we drove down daily to chill. It seems that I only took photos at the Padres game, which they lost miserably to Seattle. Ally was a bit disappointed that Brian Giles sat the game out. It's all flying by really quick, as weekends often do. I'll be sad to see her go tomorrow night. Here are some photos from the game: ALLY & JANET

Today, Matt, Mike Dakota, Teit, Alikai, and I had an all day session that started out at a school in Aliso Viejo. Teit rode all the way up there and realized that he had TWO RIGHT SHOES. Mike got busy with a FS BLUNTSLIDE while our favorite Denmark native ran back to San Clemente and picked up a left shoe. We skated a bunch of places in Irvine, checked a few infamous spots, and ended up at a ditch right off of PCH. It was like old times, waking up, skating all day, and then cooling out at night over a few drinks. Here are a few more photos:

Ally and I had planned on driving up the coast and camping above Santa Barbara at El Capitan State Park. I jumped online and tried to book a campsite only to find out that the place is booked for every weekend until next October. We decided to buy tickets to THE PADRES GAME against the Rockies. Half way throught the game SARA (Head of the Stacy Loves Weiner Club) joined us with tickets that were $50 less than ours. The Padres won 3-2 and treated us to A FIREWORKS SHOW after the game. Those guys, they are so damn nice. - Saturday, March 10, 2007

Micah is in town and refuses to go out at a decent time. Most of us have important places to be on a Tuesday morning I think. I still had a chance to CHILL SATURDAY NIGHT, when most normal people who work hard every day chill. See, I don't know how it is in Eastern South Dakota or anything, but us Californians needs to be on point during the week so we can pay our debts (even if we're actually just from Utah). MIKE AND VINCE were there also. Matt needs to step up his carpet-skating. - Sunday, February 11, 2007

I'm a commuter again, at least until Ally gets her situation sorted out and we decide to move south. I'm really hyped on it right now for some reason. Most likely for these four reasons: 1. A fast car with good MPG. 2. Good music & my friends at NPR. 3. No traffic to speak of (even on Fridays dog). 4. Constant eye-full of the ocean. It gives me time to just push the right foot down and do some introspective thinking. As much as I hate the idea of cars and driving, I love driving cars. This was my MORNING RIDE.- Monday, January 22, 2007
For those of you not in the loop, I had a great opportunity to head back down south with THE OLD CREW. And, out of respect for the new/old, I'm taking my portfolio of work offline, unless you really want to see it. - Friday, January 19, 2007
I just got back from ASR mayhem. We were in San Diego for less than 24 hours and I'm relieved to be home. I had a chance to take some friends out to two of my favorite SD eateries, Wit's End in Hillcrest and Sol Luna Cafe at the bottom of the former El Cortez Hotel. I also got to chill out with Justin, my main homie at Street Machine. I'm sorry I missed a lot of you while I was down, we'll kick-it next time. Thanks to C1RCA for the room, and everyone else for the great company and entertainment (Gummy climbed a tree). Here are some of the more mellow observational images from ASR: 01. TAXI'D02.

Wedding trip Days 2-3: It's not like I was expecting the weather to change, but the rain eventually fizzled out and was replaced by hellish winds. The gusts managed to blow out most of the storm, leaving the wedding day bright and sunny (and cold). I've decided to just post the images, since I enjoy photos of the events much more than I like writing about them. I will say that I'm extremely happy for Jason and Emily...Love you guys.

Ally and I are both rolling bike style these days because we figure it's better for us (even though cruising in the Rubicon with the top down is the jam), it's better for everyone in general, and we get a chance to see a lot of the small details of the 'hood. They opened an off-highway bike path along the PCH at San Juan Capistrano Beach, so we rode that up to the Dana Point harbor and back. Saw a lot of weekend warrior cyclists in their wonder-bread spandex, I guess that's how they do up in hrr. I think I'm allergic to all-a that.

One of the best things about working in this industry is testing product, right? For us, that means going skateboarding in the middle of the day.

Usually Las Vegas drives me nuts and within 24 hours of being there, I'm looking to high-tail it back across the desert seeking sanctuary from the blinking lights and jackpot ringers. This time, for J$'s bachelor party, I was accompanied by some seldomly seen good friends, which helped me last a whole 2.5 days in the 'City of Sin'. Having good friends makes things a lot more pleasant I think. Ever a fan of a good slogan, I'm sticking to the Vegas motto of 'What Happens in Vegas...', with the exception of these three photos: OLD FRIENDS & NEW (-CHRIS)OUR VIEW THROUGH THE COUNTER OF THE 'P'MY FANCY PAPER SAVING DIRECTIONS- Sunday, July 30, 2006

Today we laid our BELOVED & FAITHFUL FELINE FAMILY MEMBER to rest to save her from the suffering of her recent kidney failure. She was a lovely animal and lived a wonderful life, all while helping us do the same. We learned a lot from Eden and she'll always be with us. It's going to be a bit lonely for a while, so if anyone wants to visit, give us a ring. *snif* - Monday, July 24, 2006
From now on (depending on the weather conditions), I will be riding to work on a lot less rubber and metal, while using zero gas and emitting no emissions. Thanks to suggestions from couple friends and an ebay seller I have purchased a MID 80'S NISHIKI OLYMPIC 12 (PHOTO) for commuting purposes. If all goes well, my dependency upon the automobile and its expensive fuel will come to an end on either Wednesday or Thursday. - Thursday, July 20, 2006
Some HOT HEATERS coming your way in November from C1RCA, only 100 pairs are being made. Period! My best Danish friend, Teit Andersen, is partly to blame for these.

The WESTERN CONFERENCE FINALS is on right now and Raja Bell just went down with what they say might be a pulled hamstring (he said he heard it pop). I wish him the best of luck and hope his situation isn't serious. I'm fiercly rooting for the Suns in this series because of my strong distaste for Marc Cuban as a person (which even had me rooting for the spurs in the semi finals). Right now game 1 isn't going too well for Phoenix. The report just came back on Bell, turns out he has a right calf sprain and won't return. NOTE: Phoenix won the first game, but Dallas eventually won the series, which I'm sure you know. Go Miami!!!- Thursday, May 18, 2006
I rarely turn on the television, Ally can testify to that. I did so tonight to watch the SUNS/CLIPPERS Playoff Game 6 but ended up watching a documentary on a charming old woman trying to get into the Royal Academy of Arts in London, England. MARY CANE-HONEYSETT possesses a simplistic charm seldom found these days, and her work is wonderful. I reccomend. - Saturday, May 13, 2006
How does Justin Fly survive an Instant Message barrage from yours truly? He tells me he's already seen it all, that's how. He then hits me back with THE TRUTH, so it's all-good, as they say.
Slam X Hype has posted an article featuring my WORK FOR UNSOLED (BTW, I didn't do the logo above the shop, nor did I have anything to do with the website). Incedentally, I just hung up the phone from a 2 hour(+) conversation with Chris from Unsoled. Everything seems to be going well for them, which is good to hear. Much respect to him and his family (they're now expecting). The Unsoled work is available for review in my PORTFOLIO. - Sunday, April 30, 2006
New section up in the navagation bar. COLLECTORS ITEMS, as mentioned last week, will be for me to brag about all the cool stuff people are sending me. If anyone else wants to send me anything random, EMAIL me for my address...just as long as it's neither a bomb nor anthrax. Now, if only I could get a hold of Q to fix how my logo displays in Safari. - Wednesday, April 26, 2006
Finally opened my mail box (the one on the front of the house) the other day after the lock malfunctioned (a favorite word of mine). I received some more ZOMACK madness. I will be posting in a new directory for my collected artwork tonight, if I don't get back from LA too late. For now, I've posted a sort of STICKER HIJACK from one of the labels he sent. - Thursday, April 06, 2006
I did some serious work on the SKETCHBOOK section getting some past sketches in and logging as much information as possible. I just realized that it's 1:03 AM. So it's officially the 6th of April and I know one of these days is JUSTIN FLY's birthday. Despite what I said earlier, I would like to wish the guy a happy birthday, and if I were weird enough to live in Minneapolis as well, I would take him out for some MAUDITE (damned) and celebration (or CELEBRATOR if they had any). Hope everyone enjoys whatever it is that they should be enjoying. One love kid. - Tuesday, April 04, 2006
6AM is just the right time to wake up. Everything is cast in a blue stainless steel light ...exactly the right shade. Sipping some Verona with the windows cracked enough to hear the chatter of the dawn birds variety-pack. The morning is for true G's man, I'm telling you, it's mad real right now. I had a good conversation with DR DAN ZOMACK MD this morning about being young and highly mobile. And why not be young, I'm into it for sure.
Later that day...Nothing is better, after eating a nice dinner and going for a long drive down a long country road (as country as it gets in Southern California) and sipping a cup of coffee and chatting about the future and enjoying a solid downpour of rain, than coming home and putting on your lazies to chill out for some serious nerding. Nothing is funnier to me than vestigal runon sentances that have more than their share of the word 'and', and may, or may not, have misspelled words sprinkled here and there like perils on a birthday cake that has been cooked for no reason at all, let alone some someones poor birthday. Silly kids these days. Happy Birthday never justin, you ruined everything...hope you find a nice name for your fish. - Monday, April 03, 2006
Things get crazy here, and then things get back to normal. Right now I'm hoping things get back to normal really quickly. Deadlines are bonkers when you're relying on another department to get you the information you need. - Saturday, April 01, 2006
Today is a DE LA SOUL discography type of day if I've ever seen one. Springtime is upon us (although you would never know in californias perpetual spring time). All the windows are open and I'm chilling out, sipping an iced coffee drink, and waiting for Ally to get home from work. Kitty is sleeping by the door making a nappy nap seem appealing. Rough life, that's for sure. - Wednesday, February 01, 2006
My first post in the intro section brings big news. I have accepted a job with another shoe company based out of San Clemente, California. Ally and I will be moving north shortly, and will hopefully update everyone with new contact info. The job brings forth new opportunities to work for a smaller company. It's all about job advancement. knahmeen? San Diego, we'll miss you. *snif*
