Bing Crosby was such a dude, they named a search engine after him. His gorgeous 1966 Aston Martin DB5 is up for auction, a car I’d happily trade for my 1994 XJS.

The poster for this year’s Soul Revue at Festsaal Kreuzberg, Berlin, is pretty hip. Last year’s is also worth a look.

I’m going through something of a stag phase at the moment. Don’t be alarmed, it’s entirely natural, even healthy some might say. As such, this delightful cushion brings me an unreasonable amount of pleasure.

The Nate Bear Art website has been updated. I have a tremendous amount of time for any illustrator happy to use the term “sucks balls” in his work. Bravo!

I like Umbro’s new campaign, really, I do, but I can’t see it encouraging pimply youths to buy football boots.

Nice illustration work on Flickr from some obscure Russian chap. Bravo I say.

Pointless and fun, like most things online, the mini-paper-moog is the perfect desk adornment if you can find a cheeky 10 minutes to make it.
