ValetMag suggests a few anchors for your home bar. Grownups have hard weeks and sometimes step beyond the beer and wine. At least I do. Is it just me? Anyway, check it out HERE.

Four wheels just cost too much in this economy. And New Jersey insurance is a madre. Unless you register out of state like some people I know — or so I’ve heard. This here is the Triumph Bonneville. A classic bike from the 60′s that’s been fine tuned a bit for the 2010 model. Can y’all see this as the Double 7 Mobile?

Yes, money is tighter than your childhood church clothes, but so what. Just like a pimp in Memphis, everybody gotta have a dream!

Yep yep. These here are the Nike Terminator HI, chosen strictly because they vibe with Double 7 Film’s company colors.

I’ll post a photo of them on the dogs at some point soon. Y’all remember when feet were called “dogs?”

My friend Michael Hoffman has been a brilliant home chef since I was friends with him in 7th grade, but lately he’s been teaching himself to be a talented photographer as well. Consumed (I, This) is a photographic record of his culinary escapades, complete with steps to reproduce. If you like to cook or even if you just like to look at delicious things, the site is worth checking out.

Oh the the holidays! Time well spent getting fat off of momma’s cooking, drankin’ with the drunk uncles, catching up with old neighborhood friends, and ,making New Years resolutions. New Years resolutions are always a lot of pressure. Who wants to think about the things you feel you came up short on this year, or even worse straight up failed at? But a funny thing happened to me this season. I realized that I had achieved so many of my resolutions from the year before that I decided to add a vice, therefor I can have something to kick by the end of 2009. I considered possibilities: sexaholic (too cliche plus, what is too much sex..really?), shopaholic (too lazy to be up in somebody’s store for hours and not collecting a check), drugs (man I’m 30 plus! What the hell do I look like starting a drug habit now? That’s just childish)! Tabloids? Bong, there it is! I’m always so out of the loop whenever caught in a conversation about the latest celebrity gossip. Not in 2009 jack! From now on I will be able to tell you in what restaurant Paris slapped the taste out of lilo’s mouth (a real tabloid reader refers to the celebs by first name or nickname if you’re a real fan).
