“i AM LEGEND”

well i made it to the movies this weekend and saw ” I am Legend” with will smith. overall a really good flick. will smith does an awesome job acting a lil crazy, but you would act a tad loco if you spent 3 years with out any human contact. along with the tension and action will smith still leaves some time for a little comedy.

Holler Daze

Apparently, the freezing temperatures and all-day rain couldn’t stop us from having a little too much fun. It didn’t really stop any of you either. Once the drizzle let up, we/you descended upon the Walnut Room for our Holler Daze. The Bawdy Girls hooked it up, and Botany 500 from Cue Records got the dance floor dirty. Of course, here are the photos (part 1 for now. part 2 will be up tomorrow), even some Polaroids again. Head to our Flickr page to see them all.

Don’t F#%k With Alycia Lane

20071217_dn_g1alyc17c.JPG

Alycia Lane apparently went crazy this past weekend in NYC. She totally punched a cop, AND called her a “fucking dyke.” The police officer whom she hit has one side of the story, and Lane is singing another. It’s hard to figure out what really happened. So, to help you out, here’s the Daily News Article, and a copy of the complaint.

6-8!

09000d5d80527184_gallery_600.jpg

Donovan McNabb seems to think bursting through to a 6-8 record means you can gallivant around Texas stadium with the “Number 1″ raised. Right. Look, i’m kind of happy the Eagles won, and more stoked that they beat the Cowboys, but Donovan McNabb only managed to not throw any interceptions. He’s still playing like shit, and the defense deserves all the credit for all 6 of the Eagles wins. With all the Andy Reid bullshit, and Donovan’s weekly saga, the defense has been overlooked, forgotten about, and uncredited. T.O.’s been having a phenomenal year, and he was held to 2 catches. The running backs were held to 50 yards. That’s how the Eagles have been winning games. I guess, we’ll give them a “congratulations” anyway. Now, please tank the rest of the season so we can get a good draft pick. Thanks.

15 Minutes Are Up

Photo 162.jpg

Philly.com has been void of new news for two days now. Uh-oh. Are Bonnie’s fifteen minutes up? Her desire to be the center of attention came and went. She was a “buxom” celebrity with front page stories left and right, pictures everywhere, and a long list of shitty things she did, not only the ID theft/burglary, but shit she tried to pull/did pull on her friends. Now what, Bonnie? Well, she’s holed up with her parents somewhere awaiting her hearing in February (we don’t foresee a reemergence of interest then). What’s left? What’s coming next? It seemed that each day brought a new revelation about this girl that compounded the fascination/laughability of the whole situation–breast implants from dad, Olympic pole vaulter lies, the switcheroo for a test, etc. We guess the counter finally pushed over to 15:00. And, if it didn’t yet, we printed out her mugshot and Warholed it up with the MacBook to finally give it that final turn. She may still have a final thread–Philadelphia Weekly’s probably planning a cover story in the next few weeks when nobody really gives a damn anymore.

TONIGHT

After the Old City holiday sidewalk sale last night, there’s probably still some holes to fill on your gift list. But, don’t get into a panic yet, there’s still plenty of time, and TONIGHT’s the perfect night to finish it up.

First, get your ass to Omoi’s First Birthday Party. This store gets more stuff every time we’re in there, and it’s all good:

After you’ve stuffed yourself with birthday cake, why not wash it down with some vodka cocktails? That’s right, come out to our Holler Daze and get some t-shirts and other gifts:

On the Wall

historic-grafitti-in-soho-1.jpg

As a historic building in New York’s Soho sections received a makeover into luxury lofts, a wall dating all the way back to late 1970’s and early 1980s (or so) reared it’s head. (Read the Yahoo article) The wall was once the property (or rather the loft) or a known art collector and purveyor of the so-called fringe arts and features some well-known taggers and artists including Fab 5 Freddy, Futura 2000, and even Jean-Michael Basquiat. Supposedly, it’s the earliest findings of graffiti being perceived as art rather than crime. Even more of a suprise (to us at least) lies in the fact that probably only ten years ago, this wouldn’t be getting the national attention that’s been blanketed over it. The move of graffiti into the “art” world and even mainstream culture only happened recently. Some always considered the craft an art form, but it’s mostly been relegated and related to words like “criminal,” “ugly,” and “degenerate.” Now, the tagged wall has been called a relic, and is getting prepped to keep it intact, in a museum, and alive–basically it’s not getting rolled over with paint like so many other “historic” graffiti walls. The whole article makes it seem like this wall dates back to the days of Christ, but, my god, it’s only 27 or so years old. It just goes to show the significant impact (both negative and positive) graffiti has made in the world, and really puts the whole idea of what it’s become into perspective. Guaranteed some UArts kid invited all his/her friends over to tag up his/her dorm room wall after reading this story, or he/she has started their own little graffiti wall in some South Philly neighborhood because that’s where most UArts kids move to (or Rittenhouse) after they decide the dorms aren’t “arty” enough for them, and they need more creative space.
