There's a word you see a lot around the sneaker forums and discussion boards: "grail". Your "grail" is the pair of shoes you aspire to so much, that were you ever to pick up a pair, you might die of enlightened happiness. This hTM Air Woven (Dark Mocha/Medium Curry-Beach) was featured on Bill Murray's feet in Lost In Translation. It has become vanishingly rare ever since. I can't claim it's actually my grail, because the colourway is so awful, but it is the sixth and final hTM Woven in my collection.

  • I don't approve of Abu Hamza and his crazy terrorist ways, but it's wack that Jack Straw is happy to have him extradited to face the death penalty, when it's Jack who has to get on the phone to Bankok to save the life of some hippy from the home counties who gets busted with 3kg of heroin.

  • If you scrutinise the Ch-Check It Out Video (apparently a legit torrent) closely, you might notice that the intern on the shoot was Jose Rubin. I'm betting he's related to one Rick Rubin, who used to produce the Beasties, and who is now appearing in the awesome Jay-Z 99 Problems Video (real). Also appearing in said video is Vincent Gallo, whose ex-girlfriend (Chloe Sevigny) is gonna kick his ass when she sees this Brown Bunny OST artwork.

  • "Come on now, these donkeys won’t shoot themselves." Best URL evs, AND best Bush and Blair donkey execution scene evs. (from the same people who brought you Programming Language Inventor or Serial Killer).
