Surfers Exploit Other Surfers and Complain About It

ORANGE COUNTY, CA When the Internet took off a few years ago, Joe Pearler wondered how in
God's name was he going to cash in on the Internet gold rush. It looked like all the dot-commers were making the
big bucks, and they had great schedules to boot. Since surfers are notoriously lazy and selfish, it occured to Joe that
he have to think quick. And think he did. Joe was one of the first surfers to exploit surfing and ruin it for everyone.

"I can't understand it," Pearler laments. "I used to have this beach all to myself. Since my surfing website has gone online
disclosing all the great breaks of the world, tides and live cams, I can't seem to find one stretch of sand without crowds."

Chances are Pealer will never put two and two together. Along with the popularity of surfing is the surfer's lifestyle, which
of course includes chronic pot usage. Pearler would count himself lucky if he discovered one throbbing brain cell left in his
head. Yet, Pereler still has a lot to celebrate. He no longer has to make an honest living like the rest of us. He can spend
entire weekedays in the water. He won't get any waves, thanks to his website, but he as all the time in the world to surf.

"I'm really stoked to be a part of the dot-economy," Pearler exclaims. "The crowds suck, but once in a while I take my
servers off-line so I can get a wave to myself. Well, at least for a few minutes."

Pearler plans to find another sport he enjoys and somehow destroy it for himself and the world for all eternity.
