Never forget. vol.III

Phil Hartman (September 24, 1948 – May 28, 1998) was a Canadian-born American actor, voice actor, comedian, writer and graphic artist. Born in Brantford, Ontario, Hartman and his family later immigrated to the United States.

He attended California State University, Northridge, graduating with a degree in graphic arts and going on to design several album covers. He joined The Groundlings in 1975 and there helped Paul Reubens to develop his character Pee-wee Herman.

He first came to widespread attention in 1986 when he joined the sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. There he became famous for his impressions, notably then-president Bill Clinton. After scrapping plans for his own variety show, he starred as Bill McNeal on the sitcom NewsRadio. He also had frequent roles on The Simpsons, and parts in films such as Houseguest, Sgt. Bilko and Small Soldiers.

He was shot dead by his wife Brynn while he slept in his Encino, California home in 1998.

Nobody ever confused me for Johnny-on-the-spot. But here are some photo's from election night in SF...



As bad ad I wanted to shit on everyones parade, my ingrained hatred for everyone that ISNT me took the night off and
allowed me a special night of celebration. It's hard to describe without sounding like a complete douche-fag, but the feeling i got walking through the city that night is something i'll never forget.

Diggin in 'dem crates...

So im back home in albany for a hot minute and i was cleaning out my old filing cabinet and came across some pictures i havent seen in some time. makes me feel pretty fucking geezer-ly but it was well worth the trip down memory lane. enjoy.
top left: how fucking awesome am i? i autographed my own pee-wee baseball card! talk about RARE, these were limited edition cards, only 8 in existence...look for them going for serious bread in 50 years...
top right: thats me illin' in the boat at loon lake, where my parents would take me for vacation almost every year up untill i was about 14. we never got to go to disneyland, or anywhere "cool" for vacation on our income but we made the best of what we had and i wouldnt trade any of the memories of camp for one of those stupid fucking mickey mouse ears hat all the other kids in class would come back from summer vacation with...fuck those kids and fuck disney land, the woods were "the greatest place on earth" for a hyper-active little bastard like me growing up...be'leee'DAT!
bottom left: holy fuck. this is probably the most important picture i have. that there is my childhood best freind Larry and my childhood dog Satin. although Satin is long gone, me and larry still keep in contact as much as possible. He's busy supporting his 3 beautiful babies in Miami choreographing hip-hop videos or some crazy shit. dude has had the best and biggest influence on my life than anyone. ask me someday in person and i'll leave you in tears...real talk.
bottom left: The greatest people on earth on their wedding day. man, my dad used to talk shit about the crazy shit i wore when i was a teenager but now i realize he has NO room to talk...he got MARRIED in that fucking suit! holy shit,i dont know if that makes him lame or the coolest fucking dude on the planet. im gunna say the latter...they're 24 years old in this picture, they only knew each other for 6 MONTHS beforehand...and you know what the crazy part is?! they're still together after all these years. nowadays thats damn near impossible to imagine. these two mean more to me than anyfuckingthing in the world, i'm truly blessed to have been lucky enough to be apart of their lives...ill stop now before i start tearing up.

The begining of an era...

This was taken in troy sometime around '04. if i remember correctly it was one of the first shelter demo's and they closed off the entire street so we could dick around on a bunch of jump-ramps and boxes...so much fun. looking at this i cant believe how young bova looks, or how young all of us look to be honest...bro's for life...

my people.

TOP LEFT: Ryan DeMatteo, founder of the shelter skatepark. his contributions to all of our lives will never go unappreciated. seriously, none of us would be where we're at if this dude didnt sacrifice as much as he did for our cause.
TOP RIGHT: Crunchy Black re-inventing exxxtreme
BOTTOM LEFT: me and Nick Ace soaking in the majesty of thatcher park.
BOTTOM RIGHT: Samson Contompasis; If you live in albany, and dont know who this dude is...well thats actually impossible. easily the most respectable, stand-up dude on the planet. his life story will make millions. probably the most genuine sincere dude you'll ever meet.

look at these assholes. seriously, this picture captures so much raw sexual energy im having a hard time not cranking one out as i type this.

Forever Family...

Two more of the most important people in my life to this day...i wish i could pin-point what year this is from but im thinking its sometime around 1999 or so...outside of valentine's during some show...just look at the smiles on our faces...priceless.
