Mad Men

The AMC hit series Mad Men premiered it's 3rd season on Sunday. If you have not checked out this show I highly recommend it. In short, Mad Men follows the life of Don Draper (John Hamm), the creative director of the ad agency Sterling Cooper. It is a great commentary on society in the 1960's and the evolution of society in that decade.

The opening credits show a man falling past skyscrapers that show advertisements from the time period. The opening credits actually pay homage to Alfred Hitchcock's North by Northwest and Vertigo (Both films I highly recommend you see). I couldn't find the video to embed so I have place this link for you to check it out.

Calvin and Hobbes




When I was growing up I used to read Calvin and Hobbes a lot. I used to check out the books at the library and I think I've read every comic written. I saw a Calvin and Hobbes strip the other day and it just took me back to my childhood so I thought I'd share with you all a little taste.

Off the Cuff



Here is another book that I highly recommend to all my male friends. My cousin Peter gave this book to me as a Christmas gift one year. For those of you who don't know, Carson Kressley was on the long time Bravo series, Queer Eye for the Straight Guy. On that note, I believe all men should watch reruns of that show. Laugh at me now, but again how do you think I got all these impressive random facts? Anyways, this book is full of facts and tips on fashion, personal hygiene, dressing for different occasions, how to shop for suits... seriously anything. I am just trying to spread more knowledge so go pick up this book and help yourselves out.

Cool Nike+ Commercial

Here is a commercial Nike did for their Nike+ campaign. I love the Men vs. Women Challenge because it's something we could have all participate in. There are some cool athletes in this spot too like Fernando Torres, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Tony Parker, and Roger Federer. Enjoy!
