Gilberto was on his country couch drinking a cup of coffee sandwiched between two mulatto midgets. You? Check out this UBER-RIDICULOUS panoramic photo of the inauguration taken by David Bergman using GigaPan technology to piece some 1,500 megapixels into one large, interactive photo. “Jesus!” is right. You do not want to miss out on this. [...]

Out of ideas for what to do for that special someone on Valentine’s Day? With the traditional Day of Love only two weeks away, why not do something more…Muniz? Vik Muniz to be exact. The artist most famously known for his work with PB&J, spaghetti, sugar, wire, thread, and most importantly, chocolate, has found a [...]

Buckle your synthebelts: We are going straight back into the movie Tron and riding on our own sound effects.
The “reacTable” puts any normal synth to shame. The sophisticated device serves as a “collaborative electronic music instrument” with a round tabletop tangible multi-touch interface. When the tangibles – which are the physical blocks you use on [...]

Picked up some SKULLCANDY earbuds last weekend in Jax Hole in order to add a little soundtrack to the slopes. These below are Smokin Buds — very simple, very comfortable, and the bass bummmmps on them. Unfortunately I could only find plain black ones but check out SKULLCANDY’s site for a wider selection.

Not sure how it’s humanly possible, or what kind of sperm the father was packed with, but on Monday a California woman gave birth to eight kids! Octuplets to be precise. The doctor released a statement saying everything went according to plan: “We were extremely well-prepared for this delivery, except for one small surprise,” said Dr. Karen Maples, [...]

President Obama is really funny the first time he flies Air Force One, my man doesn’t care to look at the fancy menu and orders a cheese burger with “Cheddar Cheese”. This is a must see.

I was driving to class yesterday and just as I was about to pull into SMU (Southern Methodist University) I see some people with barrage of signs which I was almost certain were welcoming Ex-President Bush back to Texas…..guess again. Instead these were protesters with signs that read “W = Worst president,” “W= War Crimes,” “W= Is Not Welcome [...]

…..it probably wouldn’t look like this at all. However, I did exclaim a loud “Jesus Christ!” when Shok showed me the limited edition Santos 100 Squelette wrist candy. Keeping in form with a recent trend towards “skeletonizing” popular watch lines, our BFF’s at Cartier have done the same with the Santos (gilberto’s watch of choice). [...]

Found this company ‘qwstion‘ about a year ago, and immediately ponied up for the backpack. Now I’m wishing I didn’t because the new Black Collection is even cleaner. Looks like I have a 3-day Travel Bag in my future. Got the Mulberry messenger for day-to-day, but when I travel I’m strapped up, no qwstion.

Two commercials made their way into my inbox today, and surprisingly enough they are both really really good. Not surprisingly, they are both from outside the US, ’cause we are only allowed to see commercials about made up words (I’m talking to you Bud Light, leave me the fuck alone) and Ford F150’s. Check em…

Believe it or not we are one pesky day away from a new President. Eight years later, I am kinda getting a little nostalgic about seeing Bush go. OK, not really, but like they say, even a broken clock works twice a day. Sitting here today and reflecting on Bush, an interesting question popped up [...]

At what point after the New Year is it toooooo late to wish someone a Happy New Years? It’s pretty irritating, and the scary part is hearing it as much as I have recently, its caused me a little mental retardation to the point where I have found myself doing the same. So I ask you, when do we get to officially end [...]

There are three little words that make me want to cringe, day in and day out: “I’m so tired.” A phrase that become the clear-cut champion of responses when asking one how they are doing, how they feel or how their night turned out. Any question, really. Worse yet, it’s developed into some sick [...]
