This boat, called the Hedonist, by Art of Kinetik takes the elegance of modern, wooden boat design to a new level. Each boat is meticulously handcrafted to the point where I feel slightly guilty referring to them as just “boats”.

Dodge & Burn consistently turn out some of the most appealing tees we’re finding anywhere, although I guess the level of appeal is going to depend on how much interest you have in the industrial design of vintage cameras.

We love this slightly goofy shot of Brando, so often in photographs he looks serious or downright angry, it’s great to see him having some fun with a couple of ladies that none of us would kick out of bed on a rainy Sunday afternoon.

The traditional “Silodrome” was a carnival sideshow attraction also called the “Wall of Death." You may have seen them at county fairs – the vertical velodromes were originally built from old grain silos, leading to the name "silo-drome."
