BIRTHDAY CELEBRASIAN! Mo Tae-Bum
When I turned 21, I received a wealth of gifts. They included:
- sixer of Smirnoff ice
- knockoff version of Barbie’s little sister, Skipper
- 3 “Your first time coming here legally?? It’s on the muzzafuzzin’ house!!!” shots seeminly comprised of sugar and scope
- my first DVD porn
- 4.5 Appletinis (so hot right then)
- 13 unidentified flying cocktails
- framed photo of me with a bunch of swell college chicks in dresses holding up cocktails
- hickey
- hangover
SIMILARLY, on Korean Olympic speed skater’s Mo Tae-Bum’s 21st birthday (February 15), he received…

BIRTHDAY CELEBRASIAN! Jerry Hsu
Happy 28th birthday today to pro boarder Jerry Hsu!
This dude is the reason that Diana rides an Enjoi skateboard (poorly; with near-catastrophic drop-in attempts under her belt). Known fondly as Asian Elvis, he is not only a skate prodigy but a pretty sweet photographer, and one of our heroes.
Here’s hoping he ends up passed out in a pile of his own birthday vomit tonight! It’s the only way to celebrate.

BABEWATCH: Daewon Song
Name: Daewon Song
Age: 33
Hails from: SoCal via Seoul, South Korea
Occupation: Professional Skateboarder
Why He’s A Babe: Sure, Song has received the necessary accolades, like Thrasher Magazine’s 2006 Skater of the Year honor, and a position alongside legendary Rodney Mullen in business and on pavement. He’s one of the greatest skaters in the world, kicks a flip like nobody we’ve ever seen, blah blah blah…
Frankly, we just think he’s a babe because he’s got a smokin’ build, a slacker’s slouch, sexy eye crinkles, and a perfectly angled face. In short, he’s yummy. Plus, anyone that can command a board with his level of intensity, elegance, and imagination, has got some special skills up his sleeve–and we can’t help but want to see more.
