    It is that magical day that comes only once per year, 311 DAY! Woo hoo! Hahahaha. It seems like these guys have actually been busy lately too, since according to their website, they have an album coming out in late spring. Don’t miss out on your opportunity to video chat live with them today. Hahahahaha.…

    I had to re-post this shot that was featured on Wooster today. The artist is l.e.t.. It is a paste up stencil. What is equally cool, is that when you make l.e.t. stencil paste on poster into an acronym, it= “letspop.” Which is hot.

    I was dying, when I saw this picture on Gothamist. It appears that someone is voicing their displeasure with NY politics, by spoofing on the “Keep it Going NYC,” Campaign. Who ever you are, nice work! Hahahaha.

    I first came across Radiohead, in the era of their “The Bends” album. I wasn’t too hot on any of the singles that were being played on the radio. “Fake plastic trees” and “Creep” (from Pablo Honey) it seemed like, were every other song on certain stations, for a while.

    Reagan and I killed off both of our Netflix movies pretty quickly, this weekend. So, we turned to the instant queue and watched “Man on Wire.” This movie is CRAZY.

    Piper was a little bit cranky when we arrived in Westchester County today. It turned out that she, like most people was just having a tough time adjusting to Daylight Savings. In the picture on the left, she is being fussy and unsettled. It didn’t take her long to pass out completely (as seen in…
