Watching the lawn cut itself is now possible


I imagine many people have parents who've said "go cut that lawn, it aint gunna cut itself"(fortunately my Father always felt lawn maintenance was a job opportunity for someone so I never had to)...But now generation fat camp can say "Screw you guys, I bought this thing on the internets, from some far off land(South Korea), from some website thingy that you'll never be able to filter"...

--Cut To: shot of parent turning head and seeing the lawn cut to perfection, child eyes glazed over playing spore...

Tub Spins into a Shower


My girlfriend and I stayed in the Palms Place Tower last month and it was modernly decadent.

Only thing that could've made it better would've been this.

Bathe and then spin to wash off all the dirt soup you've pruned up in.

Another Reason Why This Man Should Be Our President



Because, he's clued in with pop culture so much that he agrees to be photographed with(not just by) Terry Richardson.

I know Terry shoots everyone for big cash mags, but seriously it's hard to imagine McCain even being in the same elevator as Terry, let alone being shot by him. I mean this is the same guy who takes the occasionaly menstrual pic now and then.

Oh, The Spanish Moss Plays the Derby and Becomes The Artistocracy's Favorite Band


Oh, The Spanish Moss, filled The Derby's VIP Room to near capacity last week as the Californian-based rock band ran through their set with much fervor. They were everything one expects at a rock concert, but infrequently receives. They take from their Los Angeles neighbor's, No Age's, foundation of having their drummer take lead singer responsibilities, but for what No Age lacks in skillfulness, Oh, The Spanish Moss makes up for, and actually surprises, with raw loud songs and sing along melodies. Their "Till All Hours" takes from the Raconteurs' recipe of success, while their "Favors Are Simple" starts off gently before crashing into a soulful ditty that's as much McCartney's Ram as it is Cold War Kids. Oh, The Spanish Moss also knocked out the Derby crowd with their ear-piercing "Coal Black Lungs", which clearly ranks Lead Guitarist Ian Caddick up with the newest crop of young guitarists who can take it to the next level. I saw a band who I know I'll see again(and enjoy it immensely).

I am Back!

Sorry for the communicado breakdown, but after a month I am back with a week filled with free music, political blunders and the occasional artistic betterment.
