I went to the Goodwill drop off today. You know the one where you dump off the crap that won't go in the garbage or the bad clothes from 1992 you might get a tax receipt from.
In one of the containers there are all the boat anchor computer monitors. As I looked in I noticed that there were several flat screen monitors. I asked one of the goodwill guys about the monitors (mostly because I wanted one). He goes on to tell me that they were from Tony Hawk.
Not only did Tony drop off the flat screen monitors but he brought 100 brand new remote control toy cars still in boxes. He did this by himself, without the news or entourage doing this. He just quietly showed up and brought some of the coolest stuff to the crappy Goodwill drop off.
A few years ago Ed and I were surfing at white fence and we noticed some guy out who looked familiar. He demonstrated good surfing etiquette and was not a great surfer but we finally noticed that it was Tony Hawk out surfing. We didn't talk with him but he was out surfing with respect.
So I don't know Tony Hawk , but it made my day that our local action sport millionaire was out delivering cool stuff to our crappy Goodwill.
