I’m off to Austin this morning. GSP vs BJ Penn 2 is Saturday. St Pierre is my guy by a long shot. I saw him in Houston at UFC 69 when he lost to Matt Serra. I will hold down things from Austin and I’m sure eastcoast will karate chop post this bitch up. In the meantime, go check out this sweet Magritte inspired fashion editorial.
You can probably catch me out at Jackalope this weekend or Habaneros! Give me a big touchpuppet slap or something.

I love the work of illustrator Sara Singh. So simple and gorgeous.

I hate pocket cameras.  I was gifted a pocket camera for Christmas. So, while driving home today and thinking of how Friedlander (look him up if you aren’t following along) was essentially a digital Flickr photography whore who just happened to use a film camera, I came upon the idea of “Pocket Camera Retro Wednesdays (PoCaReW-TG).” What better use of my free time then to perpetuate the very [...]
