i got a board, but honestly i forgot what kind, lol. i know i have flow bindings that i love, but i need new boots. it sounds pathetic, but i have a heel spur on my left foot, and it hurts like hell. i'll need new boots and probably new bindings, and since i'm not gonna go riding this winter. however when i do go, i go to hunter mountain, okemo, and mt. snow.

I still can't believe that I live in Colorado and haven't gone boarding. That might change on Saturday, I'm thinking about going up to Eldora with the gf, but I don't know yet. Would be fun, I think.

Hey man, If you want, I'll teach you. I'm a patient, understanding guy, and my girl loved me as a teacher. I'd be glad to throw down some time on the hill and show you the basics.

Some employee at Eldora shot and killed a manager there, and then got killed by a cop from my county. Anyway, I'm 19 but I had some dental work done and my parents think I'm going to fall on my face and knock my teeth out or something crazy like that.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS


NEDERLAND, Colo. • One person died in a shooting Tuesday at Eldora Mountain Resort, while the suspect died in a gun battle with a Boulder County sheriff's deputy who was injured by flying glass from his windshield.
Boulder County sheriff Joe Pelle said the deputy was responding to an emergency call at Eldora when he saw the suspect driving away from the ski resort.
The deputy chased the suspect, who pulled over and fired at the deputy, damaging the front of the patrol vehicle and shattering the windshield. The deputy got out of his vehicle and fired back, mortally wounding the suspect.
"The whole front of the patrol car was shot up," Pelle told KWGN-TV.
The Boulder County Coroner's Office later identified the suspect as Derik A. Bonestroo, 24, of Nederland.
Pelle said the deputy is a member of the agency's SWAT team. He was treated and released from Boulder Community Hospital.
Calls to the resort were not answered, but in a statement the resort identified the employee killed as Brian Mahon, Eldora's general manager.
Mahon, 49, had been an Eldora manager since 1991 and leaves behind a wife and two children, Pelle said.
A highway was closed as police investigated.
In a statement, Boulder Undersheriff Tom Shomaker said the suspect walked into the resort's pump house about 7:30 a.m. where other employees were dressing and yelled something about religion.
"Another employee entered the room and asked what was going on and was shot by the suspect," Shomaker said.
Mahon was shot twice, once in the head and once in the chest, said Detective Cmdr. Phil West of the sheriff's office. He died at the scene.
Witnesses said about 20 employees were getting ready for work when the gunman, dressed in black, walked in.
Matthew Koehorst, a 21-year-old ski resort employee, told The Denver Post the manager's death appeared "just unlucky - a complete fluke."
"It could've been me next," he said. "I was next in line. ... That was the most terrifying experience of my life; I'm not gonna go through that again."
The resort statement said the shooting began during a morning meeting.
