funny story:

remember how i was bitching about the new urban outfitters store?
well i work there now. begrudgingly.

i've always been a hypocrite i guess. like when I said I would update this at least every once in a while. i don't. it's also not a street style blog. because they are getting way too much hype these days. i also don't think i have the time and patience.

things that have been going on lately in world:
iran: the government is trying to stop all iranians living in iran from twittering (tweeting?) what is really going on. i've bee asked to change my location to tehran, iran to make it harder for the government to stop the tweeters (?)

honduras: hooray! ignorance. ok i understand that there was a 'military coup' and we know how much the democratic world hates those even if they are trying to get rid of a president who is going against the constitution. oh man... america hates coups but love dictators. they sure did in the 60s-80s...

mj: sad times. i've been watching dead like me lately and just watched this episode that asked the question why is it that humans give value to some lives over others? and followed with the statement that, maybe its just easier for us to show collective sorrow for people we don't know personally. well anyway, i'm not necessarily going to give mj a candlelight vigil but i will be sad. (The rest of us get the vigil of the stars -- how beautiful is that?)

vaccine for rabies: awesome!

finally i pose the question: can christians be hip?

regards,
derek.
