little boy blew...


...in yet another installment of 'a streetcar named revival', i am exposing another perpetratin' bitch waxing poetic about things he's overheard in his extensive retail experience or that think tank denim university for dummies that rhymes with Shmrose Shbowl (*note tongue planted firmly in cheek). the above proclaimed "vintage expert" writes this open letter:

but what this poseur throwback fails to realize (*so eloquently put by a real insider, below) is:

"...Bill is a dick head. He’ll just complain to try and make himself seem cool. Doesn’t he realize that consistancy in denim design is a very recent thing? Two pairs should never be exactly the same. We’ve always encouraged people to try on a few pairs to find their perfect. And the 1947 has ALWAYS been a slim fitting 501. AND when he says he’s had 40’s 501’s, which one is he talking about? The pattern changed about four times in that decade..."

yup, that about sums it up!

hell sinky...



...speakin' of vegas: you may start out with a win, but it rarely ends successful.

a job ain't nothin' but work...


...back from another tradeshow from my primary source of income - starting to feel more and more like what Ace must've felt like having to suit-up towards his last days with the hottest band in the world.

cholesterol-laden dinners, smiling at folks you'd rather stab, $5 bottled water, endless taxi queues, paper thin toilet paper...glamorous, indeed.

terry richardson...


...you are a baller (on multiple levels).
