Can I Borrow A Hundred And Sixty Grand?


Via Hypebeast by way of ACQUIRE. 
The Fisheye-Nikkor 6mm f/2.8 lens, first produced in 1970 at the Photokina trade show in Cologne, holds the distinction of not only offering an angle of view of 220ยบ, but also being known at the time as the world’s most “extreme wide-angle” lens. The lens officially went into production in 1972 and uses 12 glass elements in nine groups with a total weight of 5.2kg.

DROOOOOOL!

Obama to honor Pat Summitt of Tennessee with Presidential Medal of Freedom

The White House says former Tennessee women’s basketball coach Pat Summitt will receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the nation’s highest civilian honor.
President Barack Obama says Summitt is an “inspiration” as the coach who has won more games than anyone else in NCAA college basketball history and for her willingness to “speak so openly and courageously about her battle with Alzheimer’s.”

Thank you, Pat. Thank you.

Love At First Sight

Anyone who knows me knows I am a bimmer/mini enthusiast and as such, I have been in love with the Breyton GTS-R for a looooonnnggg time now. However, recently Velocity Motoring has captured my attention and i'm smitten with the VMR V710. It's just too sick! [not my pics obvi but enjoy!]

Winning Time

Watched ESPN's 30 for 30 Reggie Miller: Winning Time again yesterday and I like it more each time I watch it. Well done Dan Klores! If you haven't seen it, see it! Again and again! It's a cool look at many aspects of late 80s, early/mid 90s bball. First of all, if you didn't know how sick Cheryl was, this film gets you up to speed. Second of all, if you didn't realize how much of a sh*t starter Reggie was, this film gets you up to speed. Third of all, if you didn't realize how much MJ owned the nba, this film gets you up to speed. Fourth, if you didn't realize we'll never see another jump shooter like Reggie again, you don't know basketball at all but probably should still watch the film. Finally, if you miss the old nba as much as I do, this film is a great trip down memory lane.
