burton love series

alright, so i have been reading about this and thinking about this for awhile. for those who don't know, burton snowboards has made some pretty cool snowboards this season featuring none other then some of hef's picks from the 70's-80's. that's right, playboy centerfolds featured as the graphics on some shred sticks... having lived in mountain towns in the past and knowing the ratio of guys to gals, this is nothing but knowledge of ones target market, kudos burton.
however, there are a lot of folks not stoked on pg-13 graphics, and no it is not the lonely snowboard dirt stick who was pulling for full nudity, it is the parents and folks who have too much free time as per usual. the shit even made cnn, people are all sorts of pissed over a few side boob shots and firm 70's style asses.

at any rate, i am not a huge burton guy, but you gotta respect them and you gotta see how silly this all is. one family group has even refused donations from burton. the economy is falling apart around us, young men and women from our country are actively involved in wars in two different countries, there is an upcoming election and this is the best these folks have to worry about... must be nice.
anyone interested in protesting that the models were not fully nude, let me know, i am in...

that's enough ranting for one friday night, back to editing wedding photos! enjoy your weekend...
