It's ok not to drink

...but we wouldn't want to go thirsty right?

you said you needed more and more, you ended up with less

...and the the content of this blog is in need of another adjustment. Due to a self admitted cyber stalking of an ex-girlfriend, this will be the last post including a picture of my son. Hopefully in 2010 she will move on and find a new hobby. There will be pancakes and there will be skateboarding, but our lives will no longer be documented via photo blog. We will continue to eat pancakes and I will continue to document Winnipeg skateboarding and more. As mentioned before I am usually willing to share in response to e-mail requests.

Here is the beginning of winter skateboarding and the end of 2009.

Merry X-mas to you

Enjoy!

Merry X-mas to me!

The 3rd generation of my best friend for the last 20+ years is about to get neglected. Sad.
Merry X-mas to me! Awesome!

If you order stuff, stuff will come

My first book! Limited edition of a whopping 3 copies! I'm hoping these will make for some big smiles come Christmas morning to a few select people. I ordered them from PIKTO (if you are curious where to get some nice Canadian made photo books). The books took a bit longer to make than expected, but I have no complaints with the finished product.

A few posts ago I mentioned something about weening off of the internet as much as possible. I am working on it. I am trying to finish all updates to camnikkel.com by the end of December and may take a different direction all together in 2010.

If anyone is eager to see what I am up to or working on photography wise in the meantime or in 2010 I urge you to get in touch with me via xthegodfatherx@hotmail.com
I will try to convince you to hand write a letter, but I am not totally opposed to e-mails.

Party Out of Bounds

The house was in pre-party mode this past Saturday night. Roommate #1 was busy getting treats ready for his UFC pay-per-view tradtition at the ex-roommates house.

I was taking it all in as good household entertainment whil passing time waiting for the holiday party down the street to start (with promises of pumpkin hummus, vegan caramels and vegan date balls who could say no).

Then there was roommate # 2 was helping out, but at the same time bummed out because he opted to fill in for a shift at The Albert instead of attending the UFC party and thus missing out on all the treats.

Which left him not choice but to...

lick

bowl!

Christmas Concerts and Crotches

Due to the fact that it's a big no-no to post Christmas Concert pictures on the web as they can't help but conatin images of other peoples kids, I'm posting pictures of crotches instead.
