Bacon Sandwiches Speed Up Hangover Recovery
British researchers found that eating concentrated doses of carbohydrates and protein after some "over indulgence" can speed up your metabolism and provide the amino acids needed to start feeling better. BLT for breakfast, anyone?

Any amateur college biologist will suggest "heavy" or "greasy" food the morning after a long night out, as it "soaks up" the remaining alcohol in your system—or something like that, it's hard to remember. Newcastle University researchers suggest that age-old remedy is rooted in how the protein provided by bacon and other meats is broken down into amino acids, which in turn replenish the nerotransmitters depleted by a long night of drinking.
Something to keep in mind, then, for the long-term planning of a big night on the town. Any vegetarians in the crowd want to

Delaminated: Taylor McCloskey
Charlie Hussman: Hey
Taylor McCloskey: Hey
CH: So tell me about yourself.
Did you grow up in Northfield?
Who do you ride for?
TM: Alright. Well, I was born in Faribault and I live in Faribault now, but I will not be living in Faribault in the future. I am 18 yrs. of age and my sponsors are Renegade most obvious and Conquer Clothing from Mursfreeburo, TN.
I only lived in Northfield for 3 years.
CH: What's it like working for the company you ride for?
TM: It has a different perspective. I now know more about the retail side of the skate industry now.
CH: Is there anyone else on the team that works there too?
TM: Tyler Benson and Nate Paulson.
Jake Perrizo, Billy Meyer, and I also do lessons and skate camps on command.
CH: You guys all live in the same building as well. Does it ever get annoying constantly being around the same people?
TM: Yeah, especially when Nate looks at porn all the time. He's on right now... nawh, they're cool.
We partayyy! A lot.
CH: What’s the craziest thing you've seen at one of the parties?
TM: One night two girls borrowed Nate's bed to do some scissoring.
And most of the team has been here.
CH: The last party I was at Tyler Benson tried to put me in the sink.
TM: Haha yea. He told me about that.
CH: Is the scissor thing really true?
TM: Haha, yeah.
CH: Did you get to see it or were they all like shut the door?
TM: They shut the door. And Nate came in later, and said "Hey, that's my bed…Isn't it?"
CH: If you weren’t into skating, what would you be doing?
TM: Probably some other extreme sport, like snowboarding. I can't see myself doing anything else long term.
CH: What about extreme scootering?
TM: How about extreme tree climbing?
CH: Besides partying with scissor sisters and work/skating at Renegade, what else are you into?
TM: I work at Taco John's, I am a senior in high school. I have a girlfriend that's typing this right now because I'm too lazy. And I like to sleep!
CH: So I’m actually interviewing your girlfriend?
TM: No, He's telling me exactly what to say.
CH: Nice… Alright, I heard you have a contest named after you. What’s that about?
TM: Yeah. They started calling me Mclovin and I won the "No Name" O.U.T contest,
so it's now named after me for next year.
CH: So from now on is it going to be called the Mclovin out contest or is it going to change every year?
TM: I think next year it will have my name because I'll win. Just kidding. I think it changes.
CH: Who are some of your biggest influences in skating, local and non-local?
TM: God, because he has a plan for everybody and this is my plan so far. It takes a lot of stress away and, for local, Billy Meyer because he always encouraged me.
CH: I never knew you were religious. What got you into that?
TM: My parents when I was a child brought me to church I became confused and didn't believe for a few years then Billy Meyer helped explain a lot of questions and got me back into faith.
CH: What confused you?
TM: That reminds me about Tyler and Billy Meyer's religious feuds.
Tyler's argument once said that he believed in particles.
A lot of stuff confused me.
CH: I asked you who your influences in skateboarding were, are there any human ones? Besides Billy?
Mine are Clint Peterson and Kenny Reed
TM: I don’t know. My parents and Rodney Mullen were inspiring when I was growing up. My favorite skaters right now are Bastien Salabanzi and Chris Cole
CH: How long have you been skating?
TM: I've been skating around 6 years.
CH: What stance are you?
TM: Regul-ARRRRRRRRRRgh
CH: Do you think it's harder to make it big skateboarding in Minnesota than say… California?
TM: No, Minnesota doesn't have a lot of skaters compared to California.
California has year-round skating though and more spots and companies.
CH: That’s very true, Mike inspired this last question. If you had a package of ramen noodles and were in the middle of the woods, what would you do with it?
TM: Eat it? Is that a trick question or a joke?
CH: You would just eat it dry?
TM: Yes. I do it anyways
I’d eat anything.
Food is great!
CH: Any last words?
TM: Brittnee is sexy.

The weirdest thing you'll skate
My buddy Nate and myself sat around the park today thinking of what to build with the random wood in the back of his van. So we conjured something up in which the likes of no man has built. The half-assed plan of a weird lopsided 1/4 pipe with wallie banks developed into what was definitely THE MOST AWKWARD thing i've ever built. And since we really had no idea of what we were actually building, wingin' was all we could do. And That's what we came up with. A weird ass wallie-pyramid-hip-45degree 1/4 pipe.
Well we also haven't come up with a name for this abomination. So if you got an idea. Drop a comment lettin me know what it is. Whenever we choose the winner we'll post it up and... do some other shit. Who knows. Get Some!
(ps: Nate's hosts a good computer ... 'tech" site or whatever he wants to call it. Head on over and check it out at http://thegeekylife.blogspot.com
got some random interesting things you can do with your computer and other random shit.)
