FRIDAY PM
Still working on flipping the site into something new, pretty, comment-enabled. It's gonna happen. Slowly but surely, all the pieces are falling into place. Might have to scrap all the archives, though. That'd be sad, but fuck it. I mean, I'd save em, but they'd be carved on a hard drive somewhere, out of public sight. It'll be worth it. No encumbrances: no Iraq War entries, no John Edwards entries, no Damn Yankees posts, no pain.
At any rate:
1. FRIEND OF EL STENCE, PT. 1
Friend of el stence LIONS of the world-famous BF crew ("Known from the bottom to the top!") has opened up a blog of his own. Tattoos, graf, photos of street shit; all sliced up pretty for your consumption.
2. FRIEND OF EL STENCE, PT. 2
Friends of el stence Aranovich & Mitzy go for broke over at RADKAT! A clearinghouse of images that you will like compiled by two masters of the visual.
3. FRIEND OF EL STENCE, PT. 3
Friend of el stence Emily Spivack's Sentimental Value features compelling excerpts of item descriptions posted by eBay sellers. It's fascinating reading - like an annotated thrift store, answering the old "if ____ could talk..." query. Very human and inviting. Last week, The Inside Source, eBay's company blog, highlighted Emily and SV in a special interview feature. Check for Emily's five favorite stories, listed at the end of the piece.
4. Sports Schmortz. A manic sports blog with a Buffalo tilt created for a Sports Journalism course. If I was these dudes' professor, I'd give them an A. Excerpt:
Obviously the NBA is missing something these days. Of course I mean the beautiful essence of the mustache. What players these days don't realize is that this form of facial hair actually helps you glide through the air towards the basket (basically seeking it out.) The aero dynamics of a long flowing mustache gives you a heightened vertical, almost acting as wings of the face.
Besides the psychedelic Brian Moorman stories, I like how everything is center-aligned.
5. Mario & Luigi assault a cabbie, I hear the story on NY1 and send it to Kotaku, Kotaku says thank you. Yeah, that "Will" is me. Pretty boss, huh? FAMOUS!
6. Bald bears. I know you saw this already, so just consider this link as being aimed at my mom, who hasn't. INTERNET FOR EVERYONE.
7. Opus's married life in the year 2007.
