Sad Songs Muxtape

This drawing goes with a poem by S.C, that can be found here. I found it by googling "sad tears". From what I can tell S.C. is a 5th grader.

Sammich made a muxtape of sad songs, aptly titled 'saddest songs EVER omg' listen here.

Spaced Out: Radical Environments of the Psychedelic Sixties



I wrote a review of this Alistair Gordon's book about crash pads and crazy hippie dwellings for Cool Hunting. Click here to read it.


Keren and I went to the release party at Ramscale this insane penthouse on the West Side Highway. It had the feel of being at a California graduation party, with proud old hippies mingling happily with the younger generation.

I nearly died when Keren presented me with one of these peace sign cookies. They are made by Flour Power Bakery in Livingston Springs. I doubt they deliver, so I might have to make the trek to wherever that is to get more.


Oakley Munson of The Rondelles and The Witnesses fame played and of course I heard more than one of the older guest murmur something about Bob Dylan. He played some Velvet Underground for the old folks and then his band Puddintang! played and the old hippies danced. We didn't get a photo but we did get the cute mini-groupies.
The bathroom. You can't see the huge spa tub with a crazy view of the river but trust me it was epic. Also you can't tell but I was talking on the telephone that was conveniently installed there.


Is that Julian Schnabels Palazzo Chupi I spied from the window? I think the unit that Bono and Maddona rejected is still on the market.

Myspace Memories

Back in the days of frequent myspace use whenever I would leave someone a comment I would upload the image to this secret photobucket account that I kept just for this purpose. I was looking through that album today and I thought I would pull out some highlights. These are pretty random out of context but I doubt they would make any more sense if I explained them.

Jarvs Specs Necklace




I wrote about this Jarvs Specs Necklace on Cool Hunting.

One time I was at a bar with Jarvis Cocker but I was too shy to talk to him. I did take a photo of us rubbing elbows though. I am the one with the blousey electric blue sleeve.
Elbow to Elbow w/ Jarvis

I swear to god it's him, you know that couldn't be anyone else's elbow.

Contrary to what you might think I don't think it's time for a new shirt paradigm.
The classics never go out of style.

Punch it in Michelle and Barack

I'm sorry but this is cute...
All politics aside you have to admit, these two are fucking cool. Love the fuschia Michelle. Maybe the future is now. Maybe we can live in a Sorkin utopia.
It's feeling all the time, more and more like:


If you haven't been following the comparisons of Matt Santos and Barack Obama you can check them out here.

Also I'm sorta loving Reggie Love. The real Charlie Young? A girl can dream.
