The other Lolita!
Kelly Slater, the world’s second greatest surfer behind German big wave hero Sebastian Steudtner, has been bumped out of the G-Land competition early. Oh, it is not his fault as the waves were neither good nor great, but the 11x champion still made his presence known by living on a yacht, offshore, and becoming critical of those camp-based surfers who fell under the spell of a jungle party, openly wondering if they were, in fact, helping to super spread a disease that he has been openly critical about.
The rare triple shade.
Slater’s hefty social clout has not only been used as a tool for light hypocritical oppression of his fellow competitors though. The last few days has seen an increase of concern for a killer whale, or orca, currently jailed in Miami.
Lolita, whose native name is Tokitae, has spent the last 50-years of her life living in the world’s smallest cell. According to EuroNews:
Taken from her mother and her seven siblings at age four, Lolita arrived at the Miami Seaquarium for a fee of just €5,500. While many other animals died in the facility, Lolita has been performing tirelessly ever since – all while living in the world’s smallest orca tank.
Over the decades, celebrities such as Johnny Depp, Lindsay Lohan and Harrison Ford have campaigned to see the animal released. But it was an inspection by the United States Department of Agriculture that finally put an end to her suffering.
“The report showed that animals were suffering and dying in the Seaquarium’s tanks because of the poor care they’ve received,” says PETA’s Vice President & Deputy General Counsel Jared Goodman.
Now the fight is on to help Lolita live out her final years in peace, far away from the torment of captivity.
Adding his name to Depp, Lohan, Ford, Slater is encouraging his 3 million followers to attend a gathering Saturday, June 4th at Shelbourne Southbeach Resort (7:30 pm) where activists can be met followed by a demonstration at Lolita’s prison the following day (noon to 2 pm).
Will you be in town or possibly living an offshore yacht? Can you lend your support to a noble cause?
I think it might be a good idea to move Lolita to Lemoore where she can frolic in almost perfect lefts and rights, one every four minutes or so.
Magical.
David Lee Scales and I, anyhow, did not discuss Lolita’s plight but we did ponder the impressive transformation of World Surf League CEO Erik Logan. Have you seen him lately? David Lee was convinced that he was following George Clooney on Instagram when stumbling across his new Instagram profile picture.
Also magical.
Listen here.
Jack is the new John.
Jack Jack
Her name was Lolita
She was a show-whale
With yellow feathers in her hair and a dress cut down to there
She would merengue and do the cha-cha…
Someone unkind might mention the horrific child abuse associated with the name. But not me.
forget Jack and Toledo, Pauly Mat Warshaw was the stand out at gland.
GOAT

Elo going full paedo.
Kelly has truly become the loadmouth guy in the bar talking at max volume about stuff no one cares about but he needs everyone to hear. Until someone punched him. Then immediately feels bad as he cry’s and is generally pathetic
It’s like decor from a baby’s room where the bottle’s contents carries a 15-year mandatory minimum. (Cracked, Owsley)

the source of the pox? This is also when the Dead met up with scene’s equivalent of Thomas Alva Edison: Owsley Stanley. (We’re getting to the bears.) Owsley became the band’s audio engineer (and logo designer), but of equal importance was his status as an LSD cook. With the nickname “Bear,” his acid was considered the most pure, and one knew that the most likely place to score some was at a Dead show.
remember Free Willy, the movie? took the kids to see it in camarillo (of State Mental Health Facility fame). nearing the climax, in which two vessels were chasing Willy in open ocean waters: one group was of the greenpeace type and wanted to save him…the 2nd was a fisheries hunter aiming to process him into sushi…ship to ship communicating was blaphemy of we will kill vs we will save…da, da, da, da! all of a sudden the power went out. black-out dark! following the script of the movie and being an emergency responser myself…I yelled out MAYDAY MAYDAY…got a few hearty chuckles from the crowd then began escorting the peeps to the emergency exit doors. turns out some nut ran a car into a power pole. if i knew then what chas is telling us, i would have yelled LOLITA LOLITA!
Jack Robinson just Ram Dass’d the competition again.
You couldn’t pay me to go to a demonstration in America right now. Too many nutters with guns.
Is kelly on a Russian oligarchs yacht? Check the pillows and mattresses for rubles!! Ask the staff if they’ve been gifted any whale skin suits or have any whale chutney for an afternoon snack. If that whale in Miami was 30 years younger could probably find a position on board for her!!
BTW, most protestors ARE getting paid…the most radical groups are, alledgedly…and they’re being tracked…again, alledgedly…
Dumb shit
You’re going to cause an international narco hit squad to come after me!
share a slice of american pie or listen to jethro tull, much?
