Monkey got game. -

“Historically hardcore”

Historically brilliant.
Bravo for taking the boring (sorry Grade 7 history teacher!) and making something brilliant out of it. -
Video reblogged from Fuck yeah, Advertising!
For all of the times that I’ve spent in high school locker rooms being choked by way of the 21st century mustard gas of the lowly and the testosteroned, this advertisement by Axe actually makes up for most of their wrongs (besides the permanently burnt nostrils).
The simplicity with a twist (So sorry destiny!) is what makes this a killer marketing effort.

Sometimes it’s just the best way. Stretch those legs and keep fit.
You can’t argue the benefits of something that a) you were made to do and b) will save your life from a basketful (more than your pretty little hands can carry) of diseases.Not that this is ad has particularly great copy, but it’s effective in that exercise does clear the mind and allow you a fresh start to life’s issues.
Also, pay your bills.

Fleeting moment of summer hold strong yet
as August rains attempt to wash away
Root deep and stick around
for the fun just isn’t done -
Oh Island
Oh Island you sway me with your solitude
and you slay me with your certitudeYour soft and red coasts
Your rolling greens and lullaby breeze
Oh Island
Oh Island you play to my heart -
Spent yesterday afternoon grazing (& hiking!) around the Ottawan Alps (Gatineau Park) with my belle.
The sights were mighty fine.
The ice cream was cold.Mark off another fantastic weekend.
Two more days of work and August becomes a weekend. -
Oh hi!
I’m Dylan - You didn’t know I could take pictures?
Spent last weekend with a bucket of wonderful individuals at a splendid cottage placed on a rock in an inlet to the Georgian Bay.Coming from an island composed of sand stone, these rocks were blowing my naive mind. Otherwise to you fellow Canadian-shield-esque individuals, this is probably just every day, so you can just shimmy on and not pass judgement.
Otherwise, feast.

Coolest Category 4 mountain pass ever?

Life and Times, the website/magazine/sick blend of Jay-Z is tres cool.
Fresh content ranging from modern and youthful art, a taste of sports commentary with a twisted perspective, and today, a swig of mouth-watering architecture.Hm.
Be sure to click through and check out the other five houses showcased. -
This is generally how I like my
work artlife to be experienced.If you can sum my existence up in a couple of sentences, where is the intrigue? Figuring me out isn’t supposed to be easy - I’ve been trying for the last 23 years, yo. Stick around, re-read me, if you will, and perhaps all will become clear.
