The progress on the Los Angeles Times digitization has reached a snail's
pace, just as we're entering "granola" territory.  It was stuck on December 1964
for almost two months, but now it's at August 1965. There are no great
surprises in the eight new months.

This is for the benefit of anyone doing a "hot dog" book.

Co-ordination and balance play major roles on the general technique for fancy
surfing known as Hot-Dogging. Specific maneuvers include Hanging Five or
Hanging 10 (locking the back end of the board in a wave and walking forward until
the loss of one or both feet extend over the leading edge), and Spinning
(turning the body rapidly in a series of complete circles while riding a wave).
