Presents
I am still wading through everything from Sundance but when Funktography appeared it all went on hold. Funktography is a beautiful collage of photographic images by Kenny Morrison. His bio is as interesting as his work....a childhood actor who at a young age found a love and affinity for the camera, virtually discovered and directed videos for the band Incubus at the ripe old age of 21 and continues to work both behind and in front of the camera today. Below are a few of my favorite images. All are available for purchase!! Hint, hint to the people who gripe that they never know what to get me. To find your own fav's click here
Sundance Champagne
I am a bit of a snob in this department, ok...in a every department. After all the hard work of hair blow outs and makeup treatments (kidding). I need a little refuel. The friendly guys from Barefoot Wines offered me a glass of their California Champagne, I was hesitant but who was I to say no?? It was very tasty and when they mentioned, it retails for around $10 a bottle I was blown away!!! Give it a try!

New Finds
West Paw Designs produces Eco toys and Bedding for your furry friend. I love this dog toy called the Tango.and next time you are on the hunt for organic and eco beauty products jump over to Future Natural. Great brands like; zoya (I wrote about the casey), suki pure and john masters just to name a few.
Ok, I think I am officially at my posting limit for the day. HAVE A GREAT WEEKEND!!
Chris Jordan + BMOCA + Portfolio Mag
The two images below are the actual photo and the enlarged version. The piece is enormous 10x5 feet.
While at the gym, I picked up a copy of Portfolio magazine. In the mag was an interview with Chris. Reading about his work, philosophy and approach to art activism made him all the more interesting to me..."he creates work that translate the emotionless sums he finds in his research into visual metaphors that read on two levels - a piece needs to legible as one thing from afar and another up close. " I love the ingenuity and duality of his work.
The piece below is comprised of 200,000 packs of cigarettes. This stands for the number of Americans who die every 6 months from smoking. I have included two shots for you to get a feel for the the work but you should visit Chris' site to see for yourself. The smoking print is 6x8.5 feet
The Best Cruiser!
For every 2 bikes sold a free bike goes to healthcare workers in Botswana to help them deliver drugs to Aids patients.

Sundance Survival
I tried a Probar - Whole Berry Blast for the first time at Sundance. I was a bit hesitant because its very high in calories but this baby kept me going to hours!!!! No bonking, no hunger - held me over until dinner, which were always late in the eve.
Now I need to find some here in town.

Back + Sexy Beast
Meanwhile....I arrived home late last night to find packages at my doorstep. Even though I am loaded up with schwag from Sundance I couldn't wait to open the boxes. One contained this lovely wrapped box with a card addressed to my poochie Ollie!
Inside was a set of grooming products from Sexy Beast Style . They are made without nasty chemicals and package design by none other than Karim Rashid!!!
Ollie is a Scottish Deerhound and quite unusual. He already attracts his fair share of attention I am worried to see what happens after he has a sexy beast grooming session....stay tuned.
PS - Ben Kingsley was out at Sundance promoting a new film but if you've never seen Sir Ben in Sexy Beast - its a must see!!!
More later....

Off to Bob's Land
And now I have a couple of meetings. Best of all I will see friends coming from LA!!!!
The weirdest thing is I am a HUGE movie buff so last time I went to Sundance I caught at least 3 movies a day. I have been so crazy lately I don't have a clue as to what's showing....
Have a good weekend!

a) I knocked out my front teeth ages ago (part of the reason I hate the dentist) so those whitening strips don't work!
b) I am like an addict when it comes to chocolate - no control, I eat til I am sick!!!
c) I was recruited by Harvard University to play w's soccer - once I sent the necessary paperwork the response was - even if you are one of the best players in the state no way you are getting in with those scores.
d) I am a media and product whore! My friends know this and always pass along their magazines.

Huck & Chuck
- If you Google search "Chuck Norris getting his ass kicked" you will generate zero results. It just doesn't happen.
- A high tide means Chuck Norris is flying over your coast. The tide is caused by God pissing his pants.
Or find some of your own favs - chucknorrisfacts.com
On a side note, typing the title Huck & Chuck made me think of the disturbing movie Chuck & Buck (which I downright hated) only to be upstaged by the extremely disturbing Hard Candy - starring Ellen Page (which made feel so violated I needed to play with puppies and kittens afterwards). Yes, the sweet prego high schooler in Juno.
And on a side side note..I was tagged last night so stay tuned.
