are you dancer

MIB

Skies opened up the past couple days enough for me to pull out the ACR S-J4TS. I must say, its the most perfect jacket i've ever worn...and the colorway even matches my Vis Nam-Jum's(!)

MAIL CALL


Yet more tees: Finally got my hands on the Sillything x Stussy (thats not over-priced) and a very retro GDEH tee (i only remembered vaguely seeing it from a Jap mag)

Never one to pass up a good deal (unfortunately for my wallet, there were many), snapped up this Stussy x NBDH Boneyards "Bandit" shades for a pretty penny. Now i can look like a motorcycle meanie or a bugged out Bono...LOL

saaag

stussy|LVC|NB587: does my ass look big? its just the sag, LOL
Went strolling thru' town with the GF, the x'mas lights and decor is up and running. Everyone's in a hurry to snag the festive dollar before the recession close up their wallets
Spotted these on the supermart shelf and promptly picked up :)

It really tastes like the McFlurry ice-cream! So cool

Also picked up a copy of Newsweek


...doesn't Obama look endearingly like Alfred?
I almost expect the cover to read "what, me worry?", but of course loved the fact that Newsweek simply left it at "44": short and sweet
Y'all seen the 700+ mag covers of his historic win, so how about this?

Awesome mosaic by an enthusiastic fan, with viewable version and super hi-res printable version for your download!

These wingtips work boots from GROK leather for SPIT are fantastic. Imagine a well-worn oiled and scuffed pair...perfect

The Killers "Human" at MTV:EMA

This vid is simply incredible. I mean, catchy song and all, but the combination of video display and stage setup is amazing: from "how'd they do that?" to "oh wow"
But before you get ahead of yourself, check out what the same production company did for Etienne De Crecy: serious mind-f**k!

Burn*E

I've no idea whether you guys noticed this, but i certainly did while watching Wall*E
This cute little robot that was doing welding work and got locked out of the space station in the midst of Wall*E's adventures! And now Pixar has built a little film short that happens in the concurrent time-space as the movie!

One-77
So based on an automobile upskirt, more than a 100 wealthy b******s, ahem folks signed up for only 77-made Aston's
Then again, you know they're gonna throw everything at this baby for a truly memorable work of art:

Normally you get CarbonFibre body, Aluminum chasis, but the one-77 is CF chasis and AL body...whoa

so Steven Meisel's Dogging photos were deemed too racy for Vogue Italia, but V mag picked it up



I don't know whats the fuss, perhaps it was a publicity move by Steven or VMag? cos they were simply a tribute to Kohei Yoshiyuki's The Park (1971)

WASHINGTON—African-American man Barack Obama, 47, was given the least-desirable job in the entire country Tuesday when he was elected president of the United States of America. In his new high-stress, low-reward position, Obama will be charged with such tasks as completely overhauling the nation’s broken-down economy, repairing the crumbling infrastructure, and generally having to please more than 300 million Americans and cater to their every whim on a daily basis. As part of his duties, the black man will have to spend four to eight years cleaning up the messes other people left behind. The job comes with such intense scrutiny and so certain a guarantee of failure that only one other person even bothered applying for it. Said scholar and activist Mark L. Denton, “It just goes to show you that, in this country, a black man still can’t catch a break.”
