Tony Hawk?

For your amusement I have dug up an email I received in August 2004. As you know my name is Tony Hawke, further to that I am sure you are aware that I really can't skate. Someone forgot to tell South America.... Here is an exact copy of an email I received. I have also received an email requesting I open a new Skate Park in Rio de Janeiro (or was in Sao Paulo?), but I have misplaced that one. Enjoy.

The funniest part is that they had to navigate through my old high school website to get my email address to send this too. I love the randomness.
