Star Wars short...IN PAPER

Yeps, gotta love the creative remakes...Nice little 2 min short made entirely outta paper.  Gets a lotta good info from the good 3 films (4,5,6).  Nice music...Enjoy
Jeremy Messsersmith, a Minneapolis musician, has given the original trilogy new depth and pathos with his new video, The Entire Star Wars Trilogy in Two Minutes, for his new song about Tatooine. ('Twin suns of Tatooine / taught me everything I know).  Song is pretty FREAKING COOL, did I mention enjoy.


oh and if that isn't enough, this was released awhile but still makes me smile, click on thru

Phone with REAL DIGI CAMERA...it was only a matter of time

Hey folks, well it looks like Panasonic is the first to really push the envelop with cell phone and cameras.  Just announced the Panasonic Lumix Phone 13.2 mega pixel “slider” camera phone will come equipped with a 3.3-inch VGA LCD touch screen, flash, a 27mm lens and will be be twice as thick as the iPhone measuring in at 17mm.  13 MP!!! ...most Phone camera's have 1-3MP, a few with 5MP, but NO ONE has been toying with 10+ on the consumer market, so this is a nice step for technology.  Now who knows how many other cool features this phone, how smart it is, but really do I care if I can't play bejeweled, or tweeter my life away, no cause rather I can be out enjoying it, taking pictures I will never print!  


But don't fret you get your choice of 4 colors; Blue, Black, Pink and Gold.  But do fret cause its only being released in Japan now, but it will come....oh yes they will come

David A Smith, Amazing Glass Sign Artist

Def from a time long ago, David Smith hand crafts reverse glass signs with a true magic touch.  The video does a great job of highlighting an art form that has long been forgotten by many.  Watching it, it's hard not to become mesmerized by the techniques and patience used by Smith.   ENJOY

Woods be Goods

I wanted to post 2 awesome wood products that you guys might enjoy, and it only seems fitting that just a little while ago, I got a message from my friend Casey Woods about helping him with some design stuff.

First is Shwood's Aviators.  Classic and Vintage in style, pricetag not too high, these scream COOL.  They come in a number of different stains and a few different frame shapes.

Check them out here at ShwoodShop.com

Second is WeWood, a watch company specializing in wood watches.  Now the innards has all the modern goodies so no worries about having to wind these watches.  Even better right now if you buy a watch, they plant a tree.  Simple and effective, the watches are a nice change in our ever growing plastic world.

Check them out here at We-Wood.us/


Woods be Goods YO.

More "Oversized" Goodies, Mini Vintage Camera

This may not be for many, but saw this great remake of a classic camera with all the modern fixins'.



A new pocket-size classic camera, the MINOX DCC Rolleiflex AF 5.0 is a miniature version of the classic 6x6 camera complete with modern features. A digital camera housed in a retro case (an exact replica of an original case), the camera features: an autofocus lens, a 1.1“ inch monitor in the waist-level viewfinder as well as an image resolution of up to 5 megapixels ensure more photographic fun and maximum performance within the smallest space!


Its small and it looks SUPER COOL...I'm sure there is some joke we could make here about the size and what not...but that would be so unprofessional



PS: Penis!

Who WOULDNT WANT THIS???

A friend forwarded this to me...pretty awesome, and it will only cost you $700.  What a deal!

Click on the link below, and def read through the whole Ebay post because the guy is a bit misguided in his idea of what is cool, but I guess thats what makes it funny....ahh how we love geek humor.

Anyways enjoy, and remember my bday is coming up in december if anyone wants to buy me this...just saying:)

Miss ya Jeff Buckley


Celebrating 50 years of Dr. Martens, nice cover of "Lilac Wine" by Cinematic Orchestra.  The song originally written by Jeff Buckley in 1994.  Buckley was a huge influence over my musical journey thru the end of high school and college.  I have some smart music friends to thank for that (Stitty!)

Anyways check out this nice animation and cover, and if you go to the actual YouTube page, you can find a link to download the mp3 for FREEE





Hilarious Whore

Zack Galfanakis may be a movie whore right now, but some of his best work isn't even in the movies, its in  his shorts Between Two Ferns on Funny or Die .com




So why not do a spoof of the The Social Network to continue this hilarity...seriously WATCH THE OTHER EPISODES OF BETWEEN 2 FERNS...do it

they are funny...

Beer in a Bag, Dick in a B-x....I mean....

Hereeee, HEREEE, its time for a small revolution to take place.  A few years ago the alcoholic beverage industry brought us mixed drink in a pouch.  I know my friends loved the purple hooters.  And it was glorious, and we all cheered as spiked capri-sun drank dripped down our shirts.



As if that wasn't enough, now Beer has followed suit with a Beer Bag sure to get you going.  Its light, easy to move, and could actually be better for the environment ( Far less of a transportation cost and carbon footprint needed to move pouches over glass bottles.)  Its brought to us by Beverage Pouch Group and it comes with a handy twist top for easy refils.


But lets focus on whats important.  Now you can drink ANYWHERE, when they say no plastic or glass bottles, you say no problem concert security, no problem movie attendant, no problem...mom

Maybe not exactly the same as Dick in a B-x, but hell, these little devils surely could lead to some dick in many many b-xes...
