Wherefore Art Thou, Kid?
Today it’s pleasant enough outside to have my office window open. I’ve been sitting here all afternoon feeling like something is missing. It’s quiet. Too quiet. Finally, I remember. I look across the street and, lo, the garage door is closed. Skateboard Boy and his family are on vacation.
UPDATE 4:38PM: They are not on vacation after all! Skateboarding has commenced; all is right with the world.

I have a Skateboard Kid on my street, too… Couple of weeks ago, I gave him the old “hang loose” hand dealie… and so he gave me the finger.
Sigh. Old Skool vs. New Skool, I guess. I felt like a geezer.
