Not only is it a hideous paddle out, the water is frigid.
I grew up So Cal and surfed all over, but was never confident ( or crazy) enough to try Maverics. Isn't that where Mark Foo died? Was that in the film? Been a while.

yeah, that was in there. can't remember if they actually showed him going under, but they definitely had footage of that day.

I finally watched Who Killed The Electric Car? tonight.

In the early 80s, my grandfather was president of the electric car club at NASA. I road in his electric cars a lot as a kid.

We just watched Religulous.

Bill Maher gets a free pass for the rest of his life.

I watched Religulous last night (Not with Ghris, or his wife). It was great, but after an hour I got tired of Maher basically talking down to people. But overall, I have to say it was a good watch.
