Happy St. Pattrick’s Day! Isn’t the green Rolex awesome? I grabbed the image from Zhush because I thought it was so cool. Unfortunately, the Rolex is NOT the item that will be given away today. That would be one piece of swag that I would probably hang on to, especially so that I could wear … Continue reading Happy St. Patrick’s Day + This week’s swag giveaway→
Final week of pre-season testing in Qatar. Above: Pedrosa, Below: Rossi. After a crazy off-season, Moto GP will finally swing back into action this weekend. I know that everyone is talking about the NCAA tourney. But since Majeris left Utah, the team has kind of sucked and my interest in college hoops has waned significantly. … Continue reading GP 2011 Kicks off this weekend→
Noooooo, not those walkmen (although, they are awesome). Today we are talking about these Walkmen– The Walkmen, to me sound a lot like surf rock meets Bob Dylan. But they are from Philly, so I don’t really know how it’s possible. I guess it is the old tube amps with lots of reverb, and extended … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #104 (Walkmen)→
The theme for this weekend was braids. I was the only NY Breinholt who wasn’t rocking braids, and I’ll be honest, I felt a little left out. But, I was perfectly content to just hang out with those b-holts who were rocking the braids, and to snap a couple of shots of said braids. Piper … Continue reading PJ Update 3-13-11→

And, in light of current events is putting her skills to work for a good cause. Read her description of the project below, for the details: I … Continue reading Help Japan→
Happy 311 Day. Friday’s by virtue, are generally pretty good days. But, for me it has been an exceptionally good Friday (so far). I went online to pay bills and saw that our car insurance premium had mysteriously increased for the second time recently. I was a bit perturbed, so I called in and asked … Continue reading 311 Day and some end-of-week links→
Happy Friday! I decided to post the controversial second part of Reagan’s interview. In case you missed the first, it’s over here. Anyway, I thought it would be appropriate to post today, for a couple of reasons. First, it is nasty and rainy outside. So, the next best thing to actually being under a blanket … Continue reading Reagan Prez-day interview part II→
I don’t like using camera bags that look like camera bags. I like to maintain a low profile as much as possible when lugging around camera gear. The bag that I use the most right now is a Case Logic backpack with a top access hammock. I like it because it looks like a normal … Continue reading I want this: F-stop by by Burton→
This week the grand ol’ prize is a t-shirt. Not just any t-shirt. It is a t-shirt with a design by the artist Wissam Shawkat. The artist it awesome. The shirt was designed in connection with Staple design. Wearing this shirt is like wearing the Mona Lisa, except tipping the charts into the “cool” spectrum … Continue reading Give Away #2→
I’m having a tough time staying on top of things this week. Here we are a day late with LMC (and several other things). Better late than never? It’s debatable, but here goes anyway. Sam introduced me to this hip hop duo, while he was in town. We ended up listening to a lot of … Continue reading La Musica Coolica #103 (Chiddy Bang)→
