Procrastination (Kooky’s Korner)
October 26, 2011 by clisanti
Well as usual we don’t ever keep to a schedule here at surfingruinedmylife.net. Not that it matters much since our reader base is a whopping five people. Kooky actual did write this to be posted on Friday, but I was angry that night after work and drank half a bottle of port thus passing out before getting a chance to post it. Since his topic was all about procrastination I think my not posting it here till over four days later is rather fitting. Its not that thrilling of a segment this week. I read it, but for lack of any better content from me, minus the usual psychotic rants I have been posting I figured why not throw it up there. Plus no one is master of not finishing things more then I. Enjoy.
Koooooooooky KYLE……
I am great at starting things but I suck at finishing them. The most famous instance of this is a bird feeder I made in 6th or 7th grade. I was building a lot of bird houses at the time and figured it would be cool to make a bird feeder. The one I made looked like a little house with two big picture windows so one would know when it was time to refill it. Anyways, I sped through the whole process of making the bird feeder, the lid was hinged, and had a lock to keep out raccoons and squirrels, it was painted and sealed the only thing that was left to do was to put a piece of plexiglass on the inside and glue it in place. And to this day eleven years later, it still needs to be put in. I actually think the bird feeder has been thrown out.
Other similar projects I have done have been two surfboards I shaped and never glassed. These took 6 years to complete as I hated glassing, eventually I had a friend who was competent enough at glassing so he did them for me. One of the boards was actually super fun. It was a 5’7”x18 ¾”x 1 7/8” concave decked parabolic stringered epoxy which I gave to him for glassing. It was fun as hell in tiny waves, I never got to surf it in anything over thigh high The second board still needs to have the second set of fin plugs put in.
I did this painting of Padang Padang, and I started it and then left it for a while and then forgot about it. Eventually I finished it but I let too much time pass and I forgot how I mixed the color for the ocean. If you see it in person the two waves don’t really match perfectly.
There you have it, a little bit about me. Never leave things open ended with me because I will probably never put it off until it has to be done.
I don't know what this has to do with a bird feeder or Kooky, but it came up while I was searching for bird feeders. This blog sucked, just like this picture.

Surfing Ruined My Life 
this blog did suck.
Let’s face it Kooky, you’re way too vanilla on the surface for anyone to care about what you write. You’re going to have to dig a little deeper in order to expose the mania.
I think once he hits his stride Kooky’s Korner will become a great segment. Either that or he will just become another casualty of Lisanti Land thus giving him something to write about.
I think Lisanti should give Kooky some UCB suggestions… he def owes him.
Yo, Chris… I think you should make stickers that say “Surfing Ruined My Life”… They’d be a hit…
then write the web address underneath…
I should be all gorilla about it too and use only water proof mailing labels.
