Sometimes it’s good to revert to the basics…simple and funky. And, this Friday, it’s about keeping both. Simple costuming, simplistic concepts, and basic, funky beats characterized the band, Devo!
Throw a Curveball Better than Barry Zito

When I was a kid I dreamed about playing Major League Baseball, but the farthest I had achieved in getting to that goal was sitting on the bench in my high school JV team. Now, that dream is being reignited with this magical plastic baseball – the Blitzball from College Hill Games.
This baseball will make you look like a stud pitcher. The ball is aerodynamically shaped with 72 hex shapes which helps the ball rotate in the air.
MSRP: $11.99 for 4 Blitzballs.
For more info, go to: College Hill Games – Blitzball.

The Modern Mix-Tape … Totally 80s-inspired!
June 5, 2012 by 3 Comments
If you’re looking for a little retro activity in your modern life, try the ol’ school (albeit, with new school equipment!) mix-tape/CD!
I have never been a stranger to music…especially that which is inspired by that beloved era! So, I recently started grouping different tracks on good ol’ iTunes and cranking out some serious mixes (Soul Sounds, Passion Plays, Calming Classical)…and, now, Electronic Drive!
After viewing the sleek, sexy, soon-to-be-cult-classic, Drive, directed by Nicolas Winding Refn, I felt compelled to revert to my music-compiling days….totally 80s-inspired-like!

Now, gone (I think) are the days of dual cassette players and cassette tapes. But, with summer around the corner, what better “I love you, man” gift is better than a CD chock full of choice hits?

Really? An Atari Jaguar??? Didn’t it only have like 3 games? LoL.
I am not a hardcore gamer but I am definitely a gamer. The first ever video game that I played was Pong (so u can probably guess how old I am). Then I went through the Atari, Nintendo, Playstation, etc. So when I saw this picture, all I can say was AWESOME. Also this is not some non-functional museum piece – all the systems are plugged in and ready to go! Can you imagine how cool it’d be to just pick out a game on the left hand side and turn on any system and play it?! It’s safe to say, if that did happen, I could probably then die a happy man.

You just finished drinking your can of beer. Instead of crushing it and throwing it away, why don’t you turn the empty can into a speaker? Trash Amps uses old soda and beer cans as portable speakers.
