Gerber Crucial Multi-Tool

First to recommend

2 people recommended this item

Description

Only the crucial components: Knife (w/ serrated section), pliers, screwdrivers, bottle opener, wire cutter. Super light, very cool design, and comfortable to use.

My Leatherman Wave has never let me down, but it sure is heavy. I'm going to give the Crucial a try and see if I miss all the extra tools.

Dorian Grays -Silver stretch wool trousers by Bonobos

First to recommend

Description

These are my 5th pair of Bonobos and are my go-to pant for casual weddings and vegas trips this summer. I keep going back to the Bonobos trough because they are high quality, are always original colors/materials, and are long enough to fit my 36" inseam.

Like in the photo, paired with white shoes, a white or pink shirt, and a black v-neck, these things aren't even fair.

Iphone Document Scanner - corrugated board

First to recommend

Description

A really elegant and useful thing for a small/low cost office- use your iphone as a document scanner. This holds the phone just high enough to take perfect pics of 8.5x11 docs.

Once in your iphone, it is super quick to email, sync with iphoto, whatever. I guess there are a few steps to proper OCR, but I never really seem to need it.

Invented/sold by some dude named Kyle Koch. He sells a few variations in a few different materials. He also offers plans for free that you can print up and cut out templates yourself.

Atlas Pepper Mills

2 people recommended this item

Description

Just bought this pepper mill because of @Kristine's recommendation. Love it! Works great, has a heavy classy feel to it. Gets a nice patina with use too.

Sounds weird, but I specifically look forward to applying pepper at each meal because of it!

Electronic Ruler by design reaktor berlin

First to recommend

Description

Measures drawn line lengths relatively- from where you start to where you finish. The wood finish and old-school digital display make this a super cool little object. Might even encourage me to start wireframing by hand :-p

Just a concept product, but I hope it makes it to production.

HitchSafe Key Vault

First to recommend

Description

I've got problems with my truck keys- I loose them all the time in the city, and I never know what to do with them when I'm surfing and stuff like that.

The hitchsafe is an awesome solution. Fits in my trailer hitch and holds a key and a couple credit cards. I've got no idea if it will hold up to a beating by a thief, but its not that noticeable and hasn't happened yet.

A super intense flick. Robert Dinero, Val Kilmer, & Jon Voight tear the shit out of downtown LA in one of the best movie gun fights ever.

Another Valley movie. So awesome, heavily influenced my vocabulary in high school. Keanu's greatness was apparent early.

The Doors Movie

Val Kilmer just kills it in this movie. How fun would Venice have been back then?

Beverly Hills Cop II

First to recommend

Description

Best part- when Axel returns to LA and drives around Bev Hills. A classic montage.

Also important- Axel's Ferrari ownership was a strong influence on my own.

Clothes for tall guys

Updated Jul 28, 2009

It's hard to find clothes that fit tall guys. I'm 6'4" and 200lbs. If you are in the same boat as me, maybe these...
