I really like the elaborate holiday windows that the traditional and high-end stores in New York City create. I took a few nights and took pictures of them. Bergdorf Goodman had the best. Below are six random pictures out of over 150.
I’ve known about Woot for years and recently added the Vista sidebar gadget to see their daily offer. Today’s offer is amazing. They’re selling crap for $3 + shipping; an unknown random bag of crap. Three pieces of crap. And it sold out.
If its a hoax, then they engendered good will and humor with their customers.
If its real, then they just got income by blatantly selling crap.
Brilliant.
Several years back, I ran across an underground remix of a song by Lady Sovereign. Who was this rapping/spitting chick; grimey, dirty, sexy? Damn it sounded good. Later, she released her EP Vertically Challenged and then blew up with her first full album Public Warning on Def Jam records. Between festivals and a smashing concert at Neumos in Seattle, I’ve seen her live three times; each amazing and filled with bouncing energy.
Lady went dark for a while and reading her Myspace, I see she ran into some shit that hit her hard. She says she out of that now and working on her new album “Jigsaw” to be released in April 2009. As a tease, she’s released the single “I Got You Dancing” from her upcoming album along with the video.
