Unfortinately, its not a game....

Wall Street seems to have dropped the ball.... Again.... Check out these video games from 1987. I can only imagine what the folks at today's publishers will come up with ...

Grand Theft Auto meets Gordon Gekko? The both share the same proposition - "Greed is Good" (until the bottom drops out)....

dirty Diesel - so clever in the edit studio...

The folks at Diesel are throwing some parties around the world - in case you missed that part of the video. If this video is any indication, they should be pretty wild... Always ones to be pushing the envelope as well as everyone's buttons, just like the charectors in the video, this little piece is now flying around the internet....

Good heads up Agency Spy....

I have joined the heard

and purchased an iphone. I must admit, despite some minor kinks - it really is a super phone.

After spending the last year (or two) in denial, it rocks. It works better, is designed better and looks better than everything else on the market.

Still a little pricey, but you have to splurge once in a while.

After a long night, I woke with goggly eyes (that felt like this)

The waters of Bali, Indonesia, are home to this otherworldly creature, a peacock mantis shrimp (Odontodactylus scyllarus). The shrimp feeds by smashing open its prey until it can feed on its tissue.

Thank god for friends

After a long Thursday night of birthday Parties, when my stomach is feeling sour and my head is rather obnoxious, its nice to be reminded that we all have friends. BG - thanks for the heads up on this one. Happy Bday!

Suck on this.... Suckers (NYC)

Up and comers, Suckers, played with the Dragons of Zynth last night at the le Pousen Rouge in NYC. Despite only having a few songs - the band put on a great show. Great enthusiasm, a cool sound, and gimme a break - anyone who wears face paint and can rock out gets my vote.

Keep an eye out for their first EP - they just got into the studio this month.

Download some free tracks here, or check out their page.

Sometimes we all need to talk it out

And, another one bites the dust.

As reported in the NYTimes, Coney Island's Astroland park will be shutting its doors for good this year.

That's really too bad because NYC continues to lose those things that have made it unique. I wonder, within all this change, which direction we are going - getting better or worse?

As I mentioned last year, everywhere you look it seems someone is trying to sell you something. That, or they're building a new hi-rise condo and are trying to get you to move in.....

I was talking to an a high school friend the other day who is a carpenter. He made the observation that tradesman, crafts persos or carpenter was not included on a profile page he had completed for facebook, myspace or someother. This impressed upon me, more than all the articles I had read to this point, the fact that America truly has become a service economy. One in which very few people actually make anything. Instead, we spend our days "working" to get everyone else to buy the things someone in a lower paid country made...... Uhhhhh.

The folks at Astroland made something. Unfortunately for them, they sold their space (they didn't even sell what they had made). But alas, this is were we stand.

A nicer guy......

I feel for Tom Brady, I really do.... It totally sucks to go out like that....

But when it comes to Belechick, well, this type of thing couldn't happen to a nicer guy. It was a perfect ending last season and now we're off to a perfect begging....

(he's so caring in this pic...)

Dickhead, seen in an aqauatic environment

slow couple weeks and I thought a good laugh was in order.

Thanks P. for sharing!
