Turns out,

when you are getting paid to see Jay-Z at Carnegie Hall, you won’t get to see or hear any Jay-Z, Nas, or Alicia Keys, but you will get to monitor the photographers on the red carpet as they ogle celebrity types like Nick Cannon and Nicki Hilton. Not bad for a Tuesday night.

CR and I have had an unpublished Tumblr for years where we post all of the stupid stuff that we want to share with eachother but not necessarily the world. I was just looking through it and found this gem from two summers ago when we stopped by my brother’s office.

McDonald’s new insanely effective viral ad is actually illegal to remove (The Next Web) The act of seed bombing is relatively common and well-known, but the idea of integrating it into an advertising campaign is pretty genius. But here’s the best part: since the flowers used are California Poppies (the state flower), they are illegal to dig up, making it impossible for land owners to remove the “ad” unless they want to hide it by planting more flowers.

Zac continued the annual tradition of spicy wild game chili last night to accompany the super bowl, and the evening did not disappoint.

The moment for first-time buyers may be right now.

New York Magazine

This article just sent us into a tizzy looking at real estate listings in our neighborhood. Shockingly, they result in cheaper monthly payments than we are paying now to rent. AAHHH.

My perspective.

lauren replied to your photoset: We heard the bell of the knife sharpening truck…

This is so weirdly and wonderfully New York. Also, I don’t like how cold it looks.

Don’t be deceived, Lauren, it’s 50 degrees outside.

OMG I am hooked on this show.

We heard the bell of the knife sharpening truck outside today, and decided to actually take our knives out and see what it cost. Turns out, just $12 for three knives! We last heard the bell in our old place on the upper west side, so I’m happy that he’s now added Brooklyn to his territory! He must have read this article in the NYT last week about Prospect Heights being a good alternative to the upper west side.

I love moments like these in NYC, and am even willing to pardon him for parking in the bike lane.

Nooks for everyone

  • Me: Since I just bought a new Nook for myself, are you going to change the name of our old Nook from "AS/CR Nook" and take our picture off the background?
  • CR: No! ...I don't know how to do that.

This video just changed my life! I just cleaned my MacBook with a Magic Eraser!
