From Boingboing:
New York City Beard and Mustache Championship is tonight at the Knitting Factory. The event celebrates Splitting Hairs, an upcoming documentary following the United States Beard and Mustache Team as they travel through Europe to take on the formidable Association of German Beard Clubs at the World B&M Championships.
Categories include a “Patchy” division for the follicularly challenged and an “Artificial” class for the fairer sex. There will be live bands and comedians to entertain as well.
We also found this… you will laugh:
Thanks, Kristi!
With the summer tailgating season fast approaching you might be feeling uneasy about the rising prices of beer worldwide and, as a consumer, you may be expected to incur the costs during the game or go thirsty. Since we all know that baseball is entirely unwatchable unless you’re drinking there is was choice but to buy stadium beer and pretend you care about collecting the cups after game, until now. Not only is The Beer Belly perfect for continuing your power drinking from the parking lot, it is also useful for other modes of public intake such as parks, the mall or church.
Saturday night we had the VIP couches at Plan B for Alicia’s birthday. The whole night was a lot of fun and since today, Monday, is Alicia’s actual birthday:
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ALICIA!
Most of the pictures from that night are on Emily and Alicia’s camera so we’ll post those later.
Armed with the highest quality acrylic paints Walgreens has to offer, top-notch canvas board and hand-me-down brushes, Jimmy and KB began a new series of experimental paintings. What you see pictured below is only the first of many groundbreaking stages of creation. Subsequent layers included washes, rubbings, collage, silk screening and, finally, a perfectly proportioned red “X” centered on the canvas.
Tonight we went to the opening of Save As, an exhibition featuring prints by the talented designer/artist Adam Harvey. Each piece is comprised of something in the area of 20,000 spam e-mails composited to re-form as an image of online porn. It is conceptually interesting, without a doubt. The exhibition was at the low-key bar Stain, in Brooklyn, and had been publicized by the likes of Wired Magazine
Stain: nice interiors and patio with very reasonably priced drinks
