  • Why Eldrick Rules

    0AcbjxqWhrM

    Has there ever been a media personality like Eldrick Woods? And aren’t you glad no one ever started calling him T-Dub? (T-Dub on the V.O.!!!). He’s something like the fourth Chipmunk, but cocky, and a cold-blooded killer in his profession. Add to that the fact that he may be the first athlete to become a billionaire, and, like Snoop Dogg, he wears his own clothes. In fact, he might be the only man on earth who is allowed to carry around a stuffed animal — a tiger naturally.

    Actually, he has someone else to carry it for him. (Yeah!)

Though no plan was decided upon, discussion of the topic concluded with the dictum, “old people are good.”

  • Upset the Setup

    For the past couple of weeks we’ve had the priviledge to be invited into rehearsal rooms and backstage to shoot some of our favorite bands. We’ve climbed onstage at shows and lugged equipment up and down stairs. All that to say… we’se been shooting. Clips to follow soon.

  • Cam'ron Does HP

    Hip-hop has been down with tech since day one. Now tech is finally getting down with hip-hop. HP did spots with Jay-Z and Pharell, but they finally went ahead and got street with it. Peep game:

    The guy who channels Cam in this vid has done it as well before and appears to be a serious actor too.
