Good story about someone else on the team: Adelmo in China! First of all, I have the best dudes on Organika, not only because of their ability on a skateboard, but because they are all unique individuals. And witnessing Adelmo bless the country of China, was a perfect example of this. People would stop whatever it was they were doing to get a glimpse of the dreaded God. Walking into a restaurant with Adelmo was the craziest. One night in China, we went to some really crowded restaurant, and right when we entered, it was like a scene in a movie. Everything seemed to stop and the only thing we could here were the dogs barking in the kitchen. As we walked to our table every head turned in synch as they all looking at Adelmo and his beautiful locks. People would even come up to him and touch his hair without even asking him! Adelmo handled these situations like a champ though, he would smile and tell them telepathically “Please stop touching my hair, my princes would not approve of this”.
