I think everyone had a "Darrin Hudson" in their lives. Darrin Hudson was in my high school, back in Marlboro, NJ. You know, that person that you had to one-up all the time. Didn't matter what it was: Gear, hair, grades, sports, whatever...it was ON. Well for Darrin and I...it was kicks. Plain and simple. Oddly enough, in a school with over 1000 kids, me and him were the only 2 really into sneakers back then. This is my blog dedicated to Darrin. This is to tell Darrin that I'm still out there, and if he wants to battle, here it is son!! Bring it!! I've since lost touch with Darrin, but thanks to him, you all get to check out the kicks I have amassed over the years. So it is here, that I will archive every pair of shoes I own. It’ll include detailed photos, a grading system, a little tidbit behind each one and every single one will be available for purchase. (Simply POST A COMMENT with your offer). Some other little goodies sprinkled throughout also. Even if I updated a different shoe every week, it would take me about 3 years to complete this project. So sit back and enjoy! The project begins January 1st, 2006...

GROHE UP.

After about 30+ listenings to Jay-Z's new album, Kingdom Come...my verdict: It's damn good. Not "Black Album" good...but damn good. The man who set trends for Evisu, Purple Label (with the logo secret), Nike Airs and Crisp Tees, Prada blouses, Gucci bras, Filthmart Jeans (ma, take them off). AND the man who successfully vanquished throwback jerseys, has started a new trend: Being OLD.
Now he rhymes about stocks, bonds, AMEX black cards, owning property, fucking off chrome rims, and having a good credit rating! Amazing!
I predict the next album containing lyrics about IRA Roth plans, 401Ks, Social Security, and the flyest motorized wheelchair made my Maybach.

Speaking of grow, there comes a time in one's life when sneakers, t-shirts and expensive denim just doesn't do it for the soul anymore. At some point you realize that the secret to true happiness is taking a dope ass shower every morning. And when that day comes kiddies, you should check out Grohe. In all my travels and in all the hotels I have stayed Grohe, makes the illest bathroom fixtures for the money. Having the right shower head and bathroom faucet will dramatically increase your happiness index. I am now in the process of converting all fixtures to Grohe. That is all. Have a day nice day.

I stayed at the Savoy in London once. I didn't notice who made the shower head but it was about 3 feet in diameter. If you like lots of water pressure you gotta check out the Savoy.

Enjoying the Blog! My wife and I recently ordered some Grohe Axor shower fixtures for our bathroom remod. Maybe it is the "more mature" appreciation of design outside of just wall art, kicks, and clothes. I'm loving the finish, sleekness, and weight of these pieces. If we could only get the renovation finished, I might be able to comment on using'em!
