Nike Air Mag Shoes

The infamous self lacing shoes from Back to the Future 2 have finally become a reality!  The Nike Air Mag shoes are being auctioned on eBay to raise funds for Michael J. Fox's foundation, which means they're on a limited release and will be selling for big bucks.  You can check out a promo for these kicks below.  And yes, the word is still out on the development of any hoverboards.

One More Mile

It was a year ago that my friend Dave and I kicked off our second road trip to California (two years since the first) and I couldn't help but get a bit nostalgic once facebook reminded me what I had been posting last September.  

I'm not sure when the opportunity to do something like this again will come up, but I know it's something I should push myself to do as often as possible with as many people as I can.  It seems that traveling like this not only allows me to see and do a lot of memorable things, but it also makes the conversations seem to resonate because you remember where you were when you had them.  

The entire time you're in a bit of a haze.  You can't wait to see what happens next or where you'll be.  And even though you're tired and maybe even a bit lost, in that frame of mind you're keen to push on that one more mile simply because you feel like you're always close to something new, something different, something you know you'll remember.  It's like nothing else.

Inspired Singles: Black Sand

Issue 24: Black Sand by Applause


A little bit of attitude, a mellow beat, and a chic conceptual music video all work to the benefit of Applause's track Black Sand.  If there's anything I can thank iTunes for, it's creating a chain of linked artists so that I can explore and search until I come across hundreds of groups that I've never even heard of before.  I love stumbling onto stuff like this and then exploring who the artists really are.
