Reading it Old School

This weekend I was at a Borders bookstore in Northern Virginia when I decided I’d purchase some magazines. I started looking through the periodical racks for a photography magazine because I was interested in seeing what art criticism and journalism looked like for that medium. It turns out I was a bit more [...]

Puma Complete Tenos V

I just received my new kicks by way of Zappos.com. They rock hard, but what I’m really impressed by was my first experience shopping from this online shoe purveyor.

Alchemist Lux

I just got a new pair of kicks in the mail today - the Alchemist Lux by Medium Design Group.

Very nice pair of shoes - the attention to detail is incredible, inside and out. You can actually find a better visual overview at Zappos, but I have to say that these look even better [...]
