Hear me, I'm calling.

When I was young, and would leave articles of clothing laying around my room haphazardly, my mother would often say; "Ben Kenny, one day you're going to care very much about what you wear, and I won't be there to wash and fold things for you!!!" I did not believe her, but, as mothers have a nasty tendency of being, she was correct. She's dead wrong about Jimmy Buffet though. Jimmy Buffet fucking sucks!

Random articles of clothing which need to be added to my increasingly fabulous arsenal... (If you happen to live in the greater(ha!) Pittsburgh area and see these things at a store, shoot me an email. If I buy the item, I buy you a drink.)

1. Low top Converse All-Stars, in red. (Not the One-Star stuff from Target, which is actually quite nice.)

2. White dress shoes. No slip-ons. No intricate patterns.

3. Short-sleeved purple, red, navy, dark green and brown dress shirts. NO BUTTON-DOWN COLLARS!!!

4. Black Denim Jacket. Levi's preferred, but not a deal-breaker.

5. Red jeans and/or dress pants.

6. Combat boots in whole leather, no canvas panels.

7. Black shorts, with NO cargo pockets.

8. Solid in color, utterly devoid of design, silver and/or black cuff links and tie pin.

Fashion is not about trends or modernity. It's about wearing what you want, how you want, but being put together while doing it. For example, I never wear heavily patterned t shirts, or polo shirts, but I love shoes/sneakers that have enough pattern to catch the eye, but lack bright colors I see in every store today. Neon in more than six or seven square inches and combined with two other shades of neon is fucking GROSS looking. Also, a hoodie, no matter how well patterned and fitting, is never appropriate for "dress up" type clubs/dance floors.

I'm such a faggot. Sorry.

I was drunk by 2pm today. Not a record by any stretch, but I'm still proud of it, and smug about it.

If you don't listen to Praga Khan, you don't listen to Techno. Sheesh! Can you believe the youth these days!?

Ladytron - Sugar


Sneaker Pimps - Six Underground(My God, this chick knows how to look into a lens!)


Gattaca is way better than watching midget porn.


The leg is much better today, but maybe being drunk has something to do with that.

Taking it easy like the Eagles used to. Unlike them, I don't sell things at Wal-Mart.

350 bucks for a fucking beanbag chair?-BK
