Vans OTW 2013 Fall Winslow
Vans OTW 2013 Fall Winslow
I can't claim to be a Vans guy. In fact, I think I've only owned two pairs of Vans in 28 years, but these OTW Winslow's are too nice to pass up.
3 colorways and an expected July drop.
The folks at Dollar Shave Club have done it again and this time they're taking on #2.
Using the formula that worked so well with Razors, Dollar Shave Club is jumping into the affordable man butt wipe market with another amazingly created introduction video.
Of course, man wiping is a sensitive issue, so it's nice to see someone develop a manly way to discuss and address the topic.
Now where do I sign up?
Because I'm tired of having to deal with a messy #6.
Puerto Ricans know they're fast food.
And yes, this is real.
This final trailer for Monsters University has made an otherwise crappy day somewhat ok.
Activision unveiled the official trailer for Call of Duty: Ghosts at the Xbox One event this week and it looks awesome.
Looks like my November just got booked solid.
This photo does not do the screen justice.

Now that I've spent some time with the HTC One, I'm willing to say that I would have no problem replacing my iPhone 5 with with the One. I'm not the only one that thinks so either. The phone isn't perfect, but then again none of them are. HTC is betting big on the One, and it's a worthy challenger in the mobile phone race but only time will tell if can save HTC?
Positives:

Quite appropriate for a Monday.
It's about the time of year when iOS concepts start hitting the web in anticipation of what Apple will debut at Macworld.
Sure, the chances of iOS 7 looking like this are slim, but the concept video below shows some exciting possibilities. I wouldn't mind seeing that notification drawer, either.
Then again, Jonny Ive hasn't been in charge of iOS software in the past so who knows what could be going on in Cupertino.
An iOS 7 redesign would certainly go a long way towards reviving a plateauing iOS market.
We'll find out what iOS 7 looks like soon enough, Macworld is just about a month away.
Finally, a good hip hop song.
I've died and gone to sneaker heaven.
Randall Meeks reviews Google Glass for Weekend Update in what was one of (if not the) funniest skit's on this past weekend's episode.
While initial reviews have seemingly been good (or as good as they can be for an innovative piece of technology that has no clear defined place in the world just yet), I would completely expect this sort of experience from the general public.
When, and if, these things ever hit the mainstream, sit back and enjoy the ensuing hilarity.
Although, I wonder how many Google Glass Explorers have already tried watching porn?
I've always felt a great pressure to do something by the age of 25.
Now, pushing closer up against 30, the pressure is even greater. What's really troubling is that I find myself spending more time thinking and worrying about the fact that, not only have I done nothing great but the chances of it happening are less and less. I end up focusing on why I can't catch a break, haven't been picked (despite my greatness) to do something great, or haven't had the same opportunities that that other person has gotten (thanks for rubbing it in Instagram).
This way of thinking is really bad, unproductive, and a waste of time. I know this. I also don't know how to get over it. It really consumes my way of thinking.
I'm a hard worker, I'm willing to put in the time and I'm not looking for anything to be handed to me (although, you're welcome to).
I would prefer to think of ways to make connections, build relationships with players in industries I want to work in, and how to hustle my way to a comfortable way of life.
I don't know where to start, though, so I reach out to you interwebs. What's your path to success? How do you get past the little voice in your head telling you not to bother because you'll probably fail? Don't bother telling me to "just do it" either, I want real advice.
Your advice is very much appreciated. Really. Thank you in advance.
Coincidentally, Seth Godin wrote about this on his blog recently. I'm posting the entries after the break if you're interested:
“They ignore you until they need you.”
Hope a month and a half is enough time for you to finish Grand Theft Auto V.
September 17 can't come soon enough.
It'll be interesting to see how the 3 story lines fit into the game. Will you play one, then the other, then the other? Or, will the 3 characters story arcs be intertwined?
