shoes of the week - 70s Yak Boots

Flipping thru an old trunk in the attic of my great grandparents log cabin recently I happened upon this lovely photo from the late 60s or early 70s. My great uncle Rynhold Fermhar [pictured here] used to craft a pair of these beauties for each of his children (and eventually his grand children)---to last them through the brittle cold of the arctic winter. Much like the wholly mammoth coats made by my twice-removed second great cousin Nestor William Phillipson---the boots made from the hide of a Yak is the best (and sexiest) way to beat the frigid temperatures of the great white north. Bold and beautiful--that's what I always say!

savage mullet



Its been a while since I've been rocked by a mullet. Not like, 'oh hey, ya, so i guess that person's hair is o-k'. I mean like, ''Great Saint Nicholas' Beard', the ferocity of that mullet is changing the course of my day!'

These life-altering moments are best experienced with friends. Friends who can appreciate the savage impact of a semi-slicked completely wavy lightly silvered sunny day mullet. By the looks of things--this mullet has at least a 30yr lifespan. Savage bro. Savage.

Bieber Towels

I think if I were Justin Beiber, I'd want to get a corporate sponsorship from a company that sells ear plugs. Not just the ones that plug your ears. The ones that cancel out all the noise you're hearing and fill you heart with happiness and joy. Every time I see footage of Biebes--as I like to call him--there is a crowd of braces-laden pre-jr. high and jr. high girls mobbing him with squeals + screams + all kinds of horrible neon posterboard 'I LOVE YOU' signs.

Seriously? Stop screaming! Stop squealing---and go buy his towels like we did so you can just pretend to be him all the time!
