And bends the space-time continuum!
This morning I wrote about a pitiless blood feud featuring your favorite surf website aggregator, Stab, staring down the “most coveted event in big wave surfing” Titans of Mavericks!
Stab artists love nothing more than delicate repurposing. Such subtle brushstrokes harkening the great Thomas Kinkade. And yet there was zero coverage of surfing’ most exciting days. The silence belied internal rage. Some unspoken feud that boiled the blood and froze the soul. Very very hurt feelings.
But a very few hours ago the story popped up! NIC LAMB IS THE TITAN OF MAVERICKS! And, miracle of miracle, it was back dated by 20 hours! Oh the glorious wonders when one side of a blood feud recognizes its error and rectifies immediately, even bending the laws of physics to make the other side feel better.
Stab displayed a warm, beating heart this morning and crafted a tale of redemption that will live on in the hearts of our children and The Committee of Five’s children’s children.

I’ve been trying (really trying) to think of a less cool name than “The Committee 5” and I’m coming up totally dry.
Chas, clear some Pulitzer-sized shelf space for your reportage on Tritons of Mavs this weekend. Tres fantastique!
I am anxiously waiting the call from Pulitzer’s board. Fingers crossed!
Maybe the C5 should of backdated their contest date to Feb 4 when it was superior.
Hahahahahaha!
Errrr. Surfstitch you mean….
blood feud – Beach Grit vs Stab…
Blood Feud 2 – Stab vs Spelling
Blood Feud 3 – Stab vs Grammar
Blood Feud 4 – Stab vs Plagiarism
Chas…. This is starting to resemble a guy who can’t leave his ex-girlfriend alone even though his new girlfriend is better looking and less annoying….less articles on Stab’s many flaws….your new girl is the hottest thing since Jennifer Lawrence
A blood feud, unfortunately, supersedes all ethical standards. My hand was forced!
