There were 4 or 5 very young boys and girls running around (yes 
running, not skating).  I was playing The Fury of The Aquabats,  which 
has tracks which are very circus like ska.  It was like watching a live 
cartoon.  I talked to PRINCE VALIANT.  I don't know his name, but he 
drives a '66 Valiant car which is in fine condition.  He brings his son 
and a nephew from Mexico to the park on weekends.  He is old enough to 
have opinions about the music I play.
I played different stuff than usual.
New reggae:  Freedom's Journal, by Ossie Dellimore.
Old reggae:  The Harder They Come, by Jimmy Cliff.
Ska Punk Pop:	The Fury of The Aquabats, by The Aquabats
Aside from a heavy fall on my knee going over the spine, I skated well. 
    Continued incremental evolutionary progress on the 50-50 slide.  I'm 
over 25% make rate for the 5-0 stall.  I couldn't spin 360's at all 
which is very unusual.  I finally made 8 after 20+ tries.  I did make 3 
for 3 900 spins on the ramp which is much better than the last time.  I 
hope this is going to be a consistent maneuver I can count on.  The 
work maneuver sounds so much better than trick.
I hope the ibuprofen kicks in soon!
