A Thousand Words on the State of the Nation

Obama has already made good on one of his campaign promises, signing an executive order to close Guantanamo Bay within the year. So you’ve got to imagine that he wouldn’t be too happy to see this shot, from a super poignant photo essay from the Boston Globe.

McP sent this my way, yet another totally awesome [...]

Maybe She’s Born With It

So looking through old (and virtual) issues Vogue Russia for that last post, I came across this photo from a Sept. 08 issue of the mag.
The story shows 12 top Russian models including my personal faves. Snejana Onopka, Vlada Roslyakova, Anna Gushina and Anna Selezneva. But by far, my favorite pic of the bunch is [...]

Cover Story

So I’ve been thinking about magazine covers a lot recently. Aliona Doletskaya and the ladies at Vogue Russia constantly Bring It. The latest cover, featuring Victoria Beckham shows such a great side of fashion: sexy, fun and in your face.
Here at Res. HQ, I’ve been playing around with ours, sometimes with success, sometimes not. For [...]

Qu’est-ce que c’est?

As a thank you to my serial prank caller for the totally awesome middle-school flashback, I present this totally awesome(r) live performance by the Talking Heads.

What should I wear?

Friday’s going to be cold as can be and I’ve got to go straight from the office to the train, so let’s play [...]

We’re an American Band

My boys jacksonknife are playing Cake Shop this Thursday with Sean Walsh and the National Reserve. I plan on being front and center. Hope to see you there, too.

These kids are tight! They look and sound as American as apple pie. And I mean that in the best way possible. Super talented, super cool. [...]

Introducing…

…the newest housemate(s) at 195.
Mr. Dennis Hopper and his pal Striker, the word’s two best African Clawed Frogs. Say “Hi,” Dennis!

Okay, so that’s not exactly Dennis. I ripped that picture from an awesome site about ACFs. He doesn’t look anything like that yet, but soon…

Lessons Leared at Subway

I’ve been pretty into Subway sandwiches in the past. Not so much anymore. It seems like people either love ‘em or hate ‘em and I’ve gone both ways.
Still, I’m not proud to admit that tonight while watching American Idol I decided to Eat Fresh. So me and Steph suited up for the cold and headed [...]
