Grace Kelly, Cheers to the Peaky Blinders, &… yeah, Grace Kelly

GRACE KELLY: 

(thank you) 

“Grace Kelly’s apparent frigidity was like a mountain covered with snow, but that mountain was a volcano.” Alfred Hitchcock.

WHEN COUNTING SHEEP DOESN’T CUT IT…you can always give this a try?

TROLL HUNTERS: This man may be my new hero.

DON’T HOLD YOUR BREATH: This seems perfectly fair and reasonable to me. Meanwhile, across the pond…

THE ENERGIZER BUNNY HAS NOTHING ON…this thing. Hooray for science.

SOON…

(thank you)

VROOM VROOM VROOM: This actually made me laugh. And then I thought of these. Yes, I’m not well.

SPEAKING OF GINORMOUS BALLS: This guy. Right here. This is worth every minute of your time.

BORN TO BE WILD: Best. Helmet. Ever.  (Shopped? Maybe. If it is, somebody has to make it)

BUMMER: This seems to happen every 10 years or so. 

BINGE WATCHING IN PROGRESS:

(thank you)

JUST BECAUSE YOU CAN MAKE SOMETHING…doesn’t mean you should wear it. Goodness.

ONCE UPON A TIME…during snowpocalypses of old. 

THAT ONE TIME I HAD REGRETS ABOUT MY PHONE: I was super exited about this until I realized that it doesn’t work with my extra large phone. It’s still a great idea.

FROM THE NO S#$T SHERLOCK DEPARTMENT: This.

CASUAL ELEGANCE:

(thank you)

Yves Saint Laurent in 1969.

MORE OF THIS PLEASE: The Boston Shoveler. My pal who forwarded this to me had this to say about this guy: “The world we live in, post 9.11, has been stripped of insulation and innocence. That’s why it’s so important that quiet but still visual gestures of pride need to take place. There’s no more pretending that it’s not a dark, ugly, violent world. So when an opportunity comes up to show genuine value of something civilized, it has to be taken. And this guy did that. And that’s worth applauding. ” Yes it is.

LIFEHACK OF THE WEEK: How to build an igloo.

THAT ONE TIME WHEN STEPHEN KING PREDICTED THE FUTURE: Pet Sematary.

DON’T HOLD YOUR BREATH PAL: I laughed. Ahem. Balls.

INCOMING!
