Beards Are The New Hotness!
Letterman and Conan are wearing their ‘strike beards’ to show their solidarity with the writers on their shows. I’ve been seeing it everywhere in New York City; guys with beards now that the cold weather is here. And I’m loving it! It’s sexy, and just a little bit fuzzy too.…
Cologne's New Smog Control

Happy Green New Year!
I get more excited about New Years Eve than I do about Christmas or my birthday combined, seriously. So I always throw a party, and my parties always singlehandedly undo every environmental effort I put forth the entire year before. Invitations, garbage, lights, tons of food… etc. So this year,…
