In a related story, the economy hangs on the horns of a dye-lemma as the pigment industry braces itself for a projected shortage of red, yellow, and green textile dyes.
Red Bull Ski Teamers Shane McConkey and Sean Pettit appeared yesterday on the Today Show, pumping up the New York premier of Matchstick Production’s new movie, “Claim.” Check it out!
That Shane sure is good on TV. The youngster Sean Pettit seems to be a little more nervous. At least they get to talk about their lives as professional skiers being XTreme all day long. I’m just stoked they are getting the exposure on national TV.
