$4 a gallon?

KAMPUNG KOMODO, Indonesia -- At least once a week, an unwelcome intruder crawls under a clapboard wall and, forked tongue darting, lumbers its way into Syarif Maulana's classroom.


"Then, everyone screams, there is no more school, and we all run away very fast," says the 10-year-old boy. "We are very afraid."

The intruder, a Komodo dragon, is the world's largest lizard, an ancient, fierce carnivore found only on a handful of remote islands in eastern Indonesia. Reaching 10 feet in length, the dragons feed on buffaloes, deer and an occasional human. Just a year ago, a boy about Syarif's age died in a dragon's jaws, his bones smashed against rocks to facilitate reptilian digestion.

Damn! I thought I had problems!

 This is a little edit Villani made of the my boy Sal that was filmed 2 blocks away from my house. Dude has been riding for less than a year and is better than me! Sal has no fear and I have witnessed him on several occasions learn 4 or 5 tricks perfectly first try. He loves riding more than anyone I know. He also smokes more shwag blunts than anyone I know, which is saying something! 

 Sal doesn't really know or care about too many trends in BMX (which is quite refreshing for a jaded old bastard like myself) and is all about having fun all the time. "All about having fun" is a phrase thrown around alot yet rarely practiced in the modern BMX conglomerate/internet abomination. Not the case here folks, Sal is the real deal. The man rides a Newport frame, how could anyone hate on that?
