Best.Shoes.Ever

Reef is coming out (came out?) with some sandals that have a 3 oz canteen built in:



The Dram—a common term for measuring one ounce of liquid—is the latest addition to Reef’s “thirst-quenching technology” line. Following the success of the Fanning sandal, which conceals a bottle opener in the heel, the Dram ups the ante on drunken-delinquent footwear. Features include a hidden plastic canteen in the heel with a screw cap that can be opened by using a key that is included, a miniature funnel to insure a clean pour, and a measuring bar on the footbed that shows how much booze is left in your shoe. The sandal also features a martini-shaker tread pattern.


Here's the Fanning model of sandal with built-in bottle opener:

My Business Cards are 1 Million Times Cooler Than Your Business Cards

Moo: They Love To Print
http://www.moo.com/

From their "About Us" section
"There are now more than a billion people online, and most of us use the internet to engage in some kind of social activity. In doing so we help generate over 4 petabytes of unique virtual content a month

We have virtual communication like email, instant message or video. We belong to virtual communities like social networks, image sharing or interest groups. And in these communities we have created virtual identities like homepages, avatars and blogs.

But sometimes life can be a little too virtual.

MOO dreams up new tools that help people turn their virtual content into beautiful print products."


basically they take photos and what not from your Flickr account (and other places) and turn them into little business-card-a-majigs. You can make 100 different (or the same) minicards for 20 bucks. It looks like people are getting into swapping them as well. fun interactions, endless possiblities, woo hoo...
this would be cool if it caught on with everyone, espescially if you were to go out drinking and met some people, and wanted to remember them the next morning.

ANTM Cycle 8 - The Girl Who Changes Her Attitude

10 girls remain.

March 21, 2007 - The models learn the art of posing, compete in a challenge that involves a laser maze and take part in a photo shoot with a crime-scene theme.

I feel as though ANTM's grip on my hypoethtical soul is loosening. I barely paid attention to this episode. Maybe it's because theres no substantial drama going on. Maybe its b/c all the girls are doin alright and the photoshoots look good this cycle. Who knows, but ill continue to blog the pictures right to your face even though i have almost no opinion of the girls whatsoever.

Cool Crime Scene Photos: the make up for this shoot was badass. im glad theyre stepping up from the corny ass shoots of the past few cycles.

Brittany: I guess she either broke her neck falling out of the shower or got electrecuted or something. Props to her for chillin on that grimy ass bathroom floor




Diana: Organs harvested.



Dionne: Shot in the head.



Felicia: Decapitated. Too bad for lil' tyra, i was starting to like her.



Jael: Strangled. Im suprised they didn't give her Overdose as her crime-scene theme.



Jaslene: Pushed off the roof.



Natasha: Drowned. Why isnt this boring ho gone?



Renee: Poisoned. full.of.shit.



Sarah: Pushed down the stairs.



Whitney: Stabbed.

Her name is Yoshimi - she's a black belt in karate...

West Wing creator, Aaron Sokrin, has signed on to write a script for a musical version of Yoshimi Battles The Pink Robots, The Flaming Lips 2002 album. This might be the awesomest shit ever. I dont even know how many trips were accompanied by this cd.

"There's the real world and then there's this fantastical world," explains Coyne. "This girl, the Yoshimi character, is dying of something. And these two guys are battling to come visit her in the hospital. And as one of the boyfriends envisions trying to save the girl, he enters this other dimension where Yoshimi is this Japanese warrior and the pink robots are an incarnation of her disease. It's almost like the disease has to win in order for her soul to survive. Or something like that."

I love this show [Metalocalypse] and would gladly sign the painwaver to see them perfom. Please watch this cartoon here: http://video.glath.com/metalocalypse.php

I find myself attracted to Toki Wartooth (not a bumblebee), the 2nd fastest guitar player in the world. In Relgionklok he asked a priest from the Church of Satan for revenge on Rachael Ray from the Food Network (in the form of her eyes falling out or her breasts falling off) for unspecified reasons! <3<3<3



i havent been attracted to a cartoon musican since Trent Lane.



p.s.
why isnt this a real movie:

Feisty Peaches & Secret Sex Codes

From The Reminder:



did you know that Feist, who appears on ImPeach My Bush's "Give'er", and Peaches used to be flatmates? (thats 'roomates' for us 'Mericans)



you can d/l Peaches "Hanky Code" which can be found on the Downtown single, but not on ImPeach My Bush. If youre not familiar with the hanky code then...
Whats the color for choking? i feel like thats a pretty typical fetish, and yet no handkerchief for asphyxiphilia? OMG, axillary intercourse (read: armpit sex) = magenta hanky

haha, heres another chart for variety's sake: http://www.stuorg.iastate.edu/cuffs/hanky.html

Feist - My Moon, My Man.mp3
Peaches - Give'er (ft. Feist and Josh Homme)
Feist & Gonzales - Lovertits (cover)
Peaches - Hanky Code
