- So back in the day I would wait every month for the SOURCE to come out so I could check Chino BYI's Graffiti page.  At that time other then Subway art it was my only way to see real graffiti in my little wack ass town of about 12 sk8rs(where I managed to fit in) and the rest where all scumbags or middle to upperclass jocks. So I'd wait for each issue and cut out Chino's page and put them all neatly into a binder, it was like my monthly project to build this little book of style variety together. I would sit and study and make up words using the letters I was able to pull from out of my little bible of images, lonnnng before Google. Kids  nowdays are spoiled, you can actually sit back and say "I don't like that,  and I don't like that".  I was happy to see anything I could! I can remember skating down Broadway fast as hell just to catch up for a glimpse of a speeding Chinese food cube truck with tags on it from the city.
  Fast forward to present day, April 2007's issue of the SOURCE MAGAZINE, my artwork on the cover.  One could definately say I'm feeling a good sense of self accomplishment in an overall view of things as well as personal.  Thanx Chino for the years of inspiration before I was able to get down to Sohozats to grab IGT,Styles for Miles, Video Graff 5,6,7 etc etc. hahaha.
   7am, been up allnight time for some rest. I'll be up at noon to do it all over again.
