This was once a blog where I shared many, many things, most of which were awesome. Somewhere around fall 2009, I got a big-kid media job and no longer can keep up with this old thing. There's some good stuff hanging around here though. You should check it out.

Eating the Dinosaur by Chuck Klosterman

So, as an avid fan of his books, I just finished Eating the Dinosaur by Chuck Klosterman, the man’s recent essay collection.  The collection is very good, providing something a little more than previous works with essays that reflect on our need for recognition rather than just simply how our love lives are ruined by...

The Beatles : Rock Band

So, like most every other American, European, Canadian, or some one with access to a radio or another human being, I become a fan of the Beatles in middle school.  I was 12 and had just watched “A Hard Day’s Night” at my grandparents with an older cousin.  And at that point, I knew that...

Must-stache

Must-Stache – watch more funny videos So things have been extra-super-to the Xtreme crazy recently at work and I’ve been dealing with some major fatigue-cold-can’t really-think-clearly sickness, thus the desert of non-posts that has become this blog. And for this, I apologize. But please, take this token of briefly funny mustache humor as a token...

Illustration : Ward Jenkins

Warm, fun, and great illustration and animation work by Ward Jenkins out of Portland.  Ward has been doing animation and illustration for a long time, working in both Atlanta and Portland. I just love his style.  It’s very mid-century style illustration but with a warmth and personality that I really dig.  Definitely check out the...

Illustration Thursday : Adrian Johnson

Arian Johnson is a great designer/illustrator out of the UK, and is this week’s Illustrator.  With a refreshing and almost mid-century style.  I just love the humor and sweetness involved.  And so much texture! Props! Here’s some more that I like: Raise them on Robinsons Advert Christmas Comic Relief Politeness Pays

Movies to See : Away We Go

Today, I asked myself, “Why don’t you post more stuff about movies that are awesome?” And I had no reply.  It is true-I freakin’ love movies, just like every other person on this planet that has ever experienced the joy of sitting in a dark theatre with strangers and eaten popcorn out of a tub*....

Look what I found…

The Moustache Mug : Urban Outfitters

In you are unaware, I have a collecting complusion, I think, and one of the collections I have emassed over the last few years, apart from other things, has been a mug collection.  This mug found over at Urban Outfitters may have to be made mine very soon. Featuring a collection of the some of...

Moustache Plank : Mr. Zygote

This made me laugh out loud:  Taking an 8ft plank of wood, affixing a moustache, and creating “hip & knee” joints, it has become one cool wooden friend.  Way to go, Mr. Zygote. Found Via It’s Nice That.

Moustache Me

A few years ago, my roommate in college went to study in Russia for a semester, and when she came back, we both developed a love for old Soviet Communists, really just for the fun of it.  So for that Christmas, she got me stick-on Lenin facial hair (ie gottee and moustache), and after another...

Etsy Tuesday: Bearded Guy Buttons

Check ‘em out. Keep your loved ones...
