Coolness

So true. But I guess, one could only hope to be that cool…

Microsoft Word: Ghetto Edition

I saw this out on the net and thought it was hilarious!

My favorite part is the tag line: “Write letterz n shit, yo.”

King Kong James?

What do you think of this cover photo?

Simple question: does this offend you?

Some people out there are saying they find the photo inappropriate.

Perhaps there is a connotative meaning to this photo. It is being compared to this:

I can see where people may draw that distinction.

I personally do not find it offensive. Then again, I am not an African-American.

So again I ask, whatever color you may be: Do YOU find this offensive or do YOU understand why it may be?

Jennifer Aniston in CMU apparel!

Here, we have a photo of Jennifer Aniston starring in the upcoming film for the book “Marley & Me.”

Aniston is co-starring with Owen Wilson in the moive.

For those that don’t know, the book’s author John Grogan is a Central Michigan University grad.

As a recent CMU alum, it is awesome to see Aniston wearing some Central Michigan apparel because: 1) I went there, 2) probably not many people know about CMU and 3) she’s hot!

Kool-Aid Kicks: Oh Yeah!

Perhaps you’ve heard of or seen these, but if you haven’t, I now bestow the greatness that are Reebok’s Pro Legacy Kool-Aid shoes!

Apparently these bad boys are even scented with the corosponding flavor/color!

They’re not too shabby, although I would like to see some high-top versions.

If I had some money to waste, I would be going with the red ones, naturally. I just wonder if they’re cherry or fruit punch?

–Custom 20-inch wheels

Just might be one of the hardest cars I’ve seen in a long time…

Photos: Ford Thunderbird Italien Concept

You know, I’m not the biggest car guy. In fact, I’ll be the first to admit that I don’t know all that much about cars. But what I do know is whether I like a car or not…and I really like this one. I couldn’t resist posting these pics.

Here’s a little bit about the ride itself:

“Most early Ford show cars were sent to be destroyed after serving their duty, but this special car, a one-off Thunderbird called the “Italien” managed to escape the crusher. The story goes that this special Thunderbird was displayed at the 1964 New York World’s Fair (the one and only time it was shown), and was destined to be destroyed after the show. Instead, it was sold to actor Dale Robertson, and later in 1986 sold to Ford collector Don Chambers. Chambers owned the car for twenty years, and then sold it to Thunderbird restorer Tom Maruska, who brought the car back to its original condition as seen here. Design features of the “Italien” include a fastback roof line and a unique leather interior.”

This bad boy sold for a cool $600,000 at the 2008 Barrett-Jackson Auction.

Photos: 2008 Detroit Auto Show

Here’s what you’ve all been waiting for…all of my photos from the Auto Show.

There will be more of my analysis from the show to come, but for now enjoy the pics.

Don’t drool too much!

P.S. I’m too lazy to write captions for all of these…deal with it.
