Lately, it’s all i’ve been thinking about…

Fritz Maytag of Anchor Steam, and Ken Grossman of Sierra Nevada got together to produce a dark stout that’s surprisingly easy to drink but packs a hefty punch at 9.2% alcohol. The first of a series of four beers all limited to 1,000 barrels each, check out the article on Cool Hunting for more info.

A little trip out to Seattle, WA for a few Birthdays…

The nations top 4 year old prospect, Milo brings a mean game.

Off to Berlin for Art Forum Fair.

Leave it to Bill. The whole scene is so Korean.

Instead of a soap dispenser or a tray, soap-on-a-rope type contraptions are the norm in public bathrooms in S. Korea. This bar of soap shaped like a hand is an especially clever if not eery take. Wash your hands more.

The latest dance craze to sweep through the dancehall scene in Jamaica is called Daggerin. Essentially just dry humping your partner, it’s stirred a bit of debate and some think that both songs that mention it and the dance itself should be banned. My opinion is at least you can’t get the bug from this type of fun.

In the video above, Mystique talks a little about her style, her thoughts on Daggerin and get a glimpse of the new dance craze (sfw).

I was flying through Shanghai last week and before we could de-plane a group of tyvek-suits shot lasers at my forehead to take my temperature. Futuristic, weird, and it made all of us on the plane feel real comfortable.

Ruby Beach is known for its driftwood and skipping rocks. Located off highway 101 in the Olympic National Park, it serves as the barrier between the Pacific breakers and the coastal firs. This melange provides a rare landscape of old growth forests and jagged monoliths. It’s also a good place to scavenger for some flotsam that’s floated over from Asia.

I threw my arm out skipping rocks. I threw an 8.

Too bad it’s illegal to take any driftwood from the beach. This was used to build camp and provided protection from Bigfoot.

Warm food is sooo good after a few days in the woods. Grabbed some burgers at Sully’s on the way out. A classic spot, expect greasy but good.

Although this is circa early 80’s, if you’ve been to the Leaning Tower of Pisa, you’ve most likely done the same. I love these little camera tricks that play with perception.

Is that lady to the left pushing it over?

A documentary about Hurricane Katrina, life in New Orleans and the state of the U.S, Trouble The Water is an authentic, first person account of what went on during the disaster. Witness what it was like to experience the Hurricane from an attic in the Lower Ninth Ward. I encourage everyone to go see it.

I plan on watching Spike Lee’s When The Levees Broke, but seeing Trouble The Water makes me think that no documentaries are ever as good as when made from a first person perspective.
