If you missed my “Free Brings Glee” manifesto that I wrote up today, I insist that you read it.It’s full of plenty of knowledge on how to be happy during the holiday season.So please read it HERE and when you’re done, use this Girl and Chocolate book signing to your advantage.The two teams will be doing an in-store book signing at Boarders in Arcadia.I’m going to assume that BOARDERS is a skate shop and not the national book retail chain.The only types of people they invite to their store is the author of my favorite book, YOU’VE GOT MURDER.

The signing takes place this coming Sunday December 13th at 5PM.Maybe they will be nice enough to sign your face.And as you should know from what was mentioned in my “Free Brings Glee” statement, Girl and Chocolate skateboards is also home to some of the biggest names in skateboarding.Even if the people you are acquiring gifts for may not particularly be into skating, there’s someone on of those two teams that would suit the gift receiver.

If you have a Filipino friend, give them a signed picture of DANIEL CASTILLO.Your Filipino friend doesn’t even know who Daniel is.He/she will be happy with it no matter what.But come to think of it, Daniel may not be attending because he, Chico Brenes, and the rest of the DVS TEAM are in the Philippines as we speak bringing Daniel home.Daniel is like Dorothy from THE WIZARD OF OZ right now.But not to worry because Sean Malto is Filipino too and would suffice.You have a friend into sneakers?Eric Koston is now the face of NIKE SB and there are all sorts of posers that think they skate who are into Nike SB and they must know Koston.Have a friend who’s a vegan?Rick McCrank is a great spokesperson for veganism.Just look at him.You can tell in his eyes he’s starving, but he’s still dope.

So if you understand what I mean, this holiday season should be no problem.Use what you’ve got and exploit it.And just let the gifts come to you.But don’t be surprised if you end up receiving a bunch of autograph pictures from your friends.
