Olympian-Built Urban Ski Jump!

ByStephanie Block November 10, 2005July 9, 2013

A ski jump on one of San Francisco’s steepest hills? Brilliant! And what better way to celebrate Olympian Jonny Moseley’s 30th birthday! Co-sponsored by the Norwegian Consulate General, Icer Air 2005, though controversial with posh Pacific Heights neighbors, was awesome!!! 10 skiers and 10 snowboarders were invited to compete, and although temperatures shot up to a bizarre 85 degrees that day, snowboarder JJ Thomas and skier CR Johnson reigned supreme after 3 mind-boggling jumps. You gotta hit this next year!

Monkey Bites
ByTeresa Rodriguez
You hear about those freak accidents that totally change people’s lives. They take a left turn, instead of a right and they get hit by a bus. Or, like the recent bird flu deaths cause by young women picking feathers off dead swans. Well, my tale is not that dramatic, but it could have been….
