Earlier this year, I received a text message from a good friend of mine asking me if I knew what happened to Kevin Griffin. Knowing nothing about the situation, I started making phone calls to a couple of his friends up in Whistler to find out if he was ok.

On an average day Smolik does not say much - he is a quiet man - but March 7 th , 2009 was no average day.

Alert Bay, B.C. is a small fishing village on an island off the northeast tip of Vancouver Island. How small? A total population of 556 small. Everyone knows each other's nicknames small. The website for this place may still be under construction, but what it does have is bragging rights to being the hometown of super star sister pro shreds Meghann and Spencer O'Brien

When I first sat down to write this article, there was exactly two days until the Olympics hit Vancouver, and well, quite frankly I was a bit concerned.
